What are strategy board games?
A strategy game is a game in which the players' decision-making skills have a high impact on the outcome of the game. Strategy games often require a good analysis of the decision tree or, in games with random elements, of probability distributions. Strategy games include abstract games with artificial rules and little or no theme, and simulations (including War games) with rules designed to simulate and reproduce a real or fictional scenario.
