Introduction
Patrol: Lost! Is a two player game system without a theme.
Everyone is invited to submit their interpretation of the
game, and even make derivatives of this game system.
Core Concept
The main idea of the game is that one player takes control
of a small group of “Good Guys” who find themselves in a
“Bad Place”. The other player will take control of the “Bad
Guys”, who will outnumber the Good Guys and attack them
from all directions. The Good Guys will have to find their
way out of the Bad Place, by trying alternate routes and
keeping out of the clutches of the Bad Guys.
Components
The game is made up of a relatively small set of
components, as listed below.
Dice: You will need at least 3 standard six sided dice, but 6
would be better.
Good Guys: You will need 5 markers or pawns to act as
good guys. These can be counters, but it will look better if
you use figures, or perhaps some paper figures. You'll need
three types of figure: The first type is the Standard Good
Guy, and you'll need three of these. As an example of a
standard Good Guy, if you were playing a zombie survival
version of the game, this would be the family man armed
with a cricket bat.

STREETS OF INNSMOUTH EDITION
The next type of figure is the Close Combat Specialist, you'll
only need one of these. Once again, if your playing zombie
survival, this would be the guy with the chainsaw. The last
type of Good Guy is the Ranged Combat Specialist, in the
zombie survival game this would be the guy with the
shotgun.
Bad Guys
You'll need 18 Bad Guys, all of them the same. These are
best represented as counters, rather than the figures used
for Good Guys, because you'll find yourself stacking these
up on the hexes/tiles. The game is more enjoyable if the
counters are faced with appropriate images, such as
zombies, crazed loons or jungle monsters.
Game Rules
The following are the basic, or core, rules of the game.
Setting Up
Place the Start Tile in the centre of the table. Set aside the
End Tile, then shuffle the remaining tiles and place them
aside face down. You will be drawing from this pile of tiles to
build up the map as you play. One player takes the Bad
Guys counters and the other the Good Guys pawns or
figures. The Good Guys player places all of his
pawns on the Start tile The Bad Guys player lays out all of
the tiles that the Good Guys pawns can see, as
described in “Placing Paths” Once you've done these things
your ready to start playing the game.

Turn Sequence
A game turn is made up of 6 phases as listed below.
1. The Good Guys player carries out his chosen actions.
2. The Bad Guys player must remove certain tiles.
3. The Bad Guys player places paths.
4. The Bad Guys player carries out their chosen actions.
5. The Bad Guys player attacks the Good Guys.
6. The players ensure they haven't put too many of their
pieces on any tile.
Good Guy Actions
Each Good Guy can do two actions each turn, although you
may choose to do only one or even none at all. Do all of the
actions for a single Good Guy before moving onto the next.
There are two types of action and the Good Guy may do
one type of action twice, or one of each, entirely at the
Good Guy players discretion. The first type of action, is to
move the Good Guy into an adjacent hex along one of the
paths marked on the hex. The Good Guy may not move off
of the path, or off a hex onto the open table. When the
Good Guy starts on a Hazard hex you are not able to just
move him as an action. To move him you must first roll a
die. If you roll 1,2,3 you may move the Good Guy as
normal. If you roll 4,5 or 6 then the hazard has slowed your
Good guy down and you action is wasted. Hazards can be
anything appropriate to the theme. Perhaps the Good Guy
is pinned down under heavy fire, or simply
along one of the pathways.

stuck in thick mud. The other action a Good Guy can do is
to attack Bad Guys. They can only attack Bad Guys on the
same hex as the Good Guy. Good Guys roll 3 dice, or 6
dice for the Ranged Combat Specialist. Each six rolled
counts as a hit and you remove one Bad Guy for each hit.
Any hits above the number of Bad Guys in the hex are
wasted.
Removing Tiles
During this phase the Bad Guy player checks to see if any
of the tiles can be removed from play. You can't remove any
tiles the Good Guys can see from where they are, or that
they could see should they move one or two hexes. If you
suspect that you can remove a tile, imagine moving the
Good Guys up to two tiles towards it, could they see it at
any point? The Good Guys have a line of sight along any
pathway until it reaches a curve. When a tile is removed, it
is discarded and will not come back into play. Any Bad Guys
on a removed tile are returned to the Bad Guy players pool
of available Bad Guys.
Placing Paths
Doing this is quite simple. Look at each Good Guy pawn
and the tile it is on, there are pathways leading from that
tile. The Good Guy can look along these paths until they
reach a curve or a turn If any of the paths don't lead to a
tile, you need to extend the path as far as the Good Guy
can see. For instance on the start tile at the beginning of the
another you must discard one Bad Guy back to your pool of
