Ars imperatoria
noun
1. Latin translation of Strategy.
"Ars imperatoria is important in war."
2. A nationally celebrated push and pull game which is competed by two players, each with five different kinds of pieces, sixteen pieces in total: One monarch, two frustums, three protectors, four followers and six peasants. It works much like chess where each player alternates between making a move, and each figure has different abilities on the board. The contestants have to use a certain amount of their moves to take care of their peasants who require food and water. One can win in two different ways: Either kill all the protectors to get to the monarch and slay them, or pose such a threat one forces the monarch to neglect their peasants, thereby getting the peasants to betray the monarch.
