Warriors and Brigands

  • Indoors/outdoors
  • Equipment: None
  • Formation: Teams

 

The Pack is split into teams, one is the 'Brigands' and the other is the 'Warriors'. Each team has one end of the room as its base. The teams then line up facing each other and the leader gives various commands, e.g., 'Warriors two paces forward' or 'Brigands one step back'. This goes on with mounting suspense (although three or four times are usually enough) until the leader says, 'Warriors (or 'Brigands') attack!' Then the team ordered to attack gives chase as the others rush to their base. Any prisoners taken by the pursuing team immediately transfer to that team.
