I've read & re-read the rules (English version Premium Game)and I can't find any explanation if a player could be eliminated from the game. Is it possible? How is it done, and where can i find the explanation(s) in the rules, please? I haven't played Dust yet, just recently purchased, and as my avatar says, I'm the "Game Splainer" in my group, so this, for me is a losse-end I'd like to clear up.

Thanks for your time & help...................

What happens if all your units are eliminated from the board? I understand that you would still receive the minimum 6 PP per turn, but would you be able to do anything with it?

(I realize that this may not be a probable scenario)

We play there is player elimination if:

You have no troops/territory and there are no neutral land spaces.

Common in 6 player games but to lose your capital the end of the game is usually close at hand anyway.

I've played dust so far A LOT. (It was my only serious board game for about 2 years, now I have a new love - Axis & Allies arrrh)

We usually always play with 6 players, and it is rare, although, not very rare that a player gets eliminated.

As long as he has land units, he is able to build a production center, but when he loses all land units, and also loses all submarines, he is eliminated.

Once we even killed off two players. They weren't happy. devil
