could you accept field marshal for 1? I'm pretty sure that was the name of the piece when I used to play.

I'm sure miner used to be called sapper (i.e. it is on mine which is ancient) so that should be allowed as well.

there are two versions that go both directions...but you should still be able to get them all, the positions haven't really changed

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the higher values are for the higher-ranked people. For example, Scout was 1 and Marshal 9.

"Some versions (primarily newer versions released since 2000) have higher ranks with higher numbers, while others (versions prior to 2000, as well as the Nostalgia version released in 2002) have higher ranks with lower numbers." -wikipedia

Thought this was going to be really easy because I played this game all the time but then as soon as I started I realized I always called the pieces by their numbers, i.e "You killed my 2"

"Colors" should also be accepted for "flag"

Wow, grew up never calling them by their names. Tried "bomb diffuser" for number 8.

The miner should also be called "grenadier" as that was used in some versions. @TheBluesMan, awesome reference!

Stratego is a great game, but boy those military ranks can be hard to spell. I tried about 6 versions of sergeant and couldn't get it right, also flubbed colonel and was lucky to get lieutenant. And I consider myself a good speller.

Until I made this game I would have bet money that "marshal" had two L's

^ Marshall Islands has two, I think otherwise one L is more common now.

It'd been ages upon ages since I've played this. I remembered bomb, flag, spy and marshal and just used army ranks for the rest. I could not remember miner and scout.

Why aren't they labeled from 10 to 2, with S and then no labels?

The rankings are backwards; the Marshall (with two 'l's) is 10 (being the highest).

@ navarro and junuxx Thats why i always have google on another tab. Its a quiz not a spelling bee.

I also couldn't spell sergeant or lieutenant. And using google on another tab provides one with more than just the correct spellings. If you're going to look stuff up... why take the quiz?

GAH...For the life of me, I can never spell Sergeant. Probably because most people say "Sargent" when talking...

I was in Barnes and Noble the other day and there was a 50th Anniversary Edition, and it had 4 cannon pieces that could be interchanged with the rest.

Great game, and fun quiz. Had to look up the translation for "Miner" as I only knew the Dutch word for it, everything else I'm trained to type these days, especially Lieutenant!
