Any stock which moves above 10 on the board will split and any player owning any shares will instantly double their shares with the price reverting back to 5 as well. The stock resets to the initial value afterwards so it remains in the game. Should a stock move below 1 in value on the board, it will go into bankruptcy and any player who owned that stock loses all of their shares. The player with the most money wins the game. At the end of the game some bonuses are given out for owning the most of different types of stocks, and all held stocks are sold for profits to calculate the final scores. Play continues over a certain number of rounds, determined by the number of players, until the game ends. Finally, once sales have been completed, the forecasts are revealed and the stocks are moved appropriately.
Again, the earlier hidden information will come into play here as players may try to sell off any stock headed for a big drop. Then players get the chance to sell any of their owned stocks before the market moves for the round. Next, players act out all of the cards received from their stockpile. Since only half of the cards are known to all players, there is a lot of bluffing involved in this stage and it provides much of the fun of the game. Once all of the piles are set, players begin bidding on which pile they want to take, gaining any benefits (or penalties) from the cards on that pile. Each player places one card face up on a pile and one card face down on a pile. The cards represent things from shares of a particular stock to an instant penalty in the form of lost money or even the ability to manipulate a stock of your choosing up or down. The supply phase gives each player two cards which are placed onto any of the given piles, there is one pile per player. Each player is then individually given one forecast about one of the other five stocks. This is usually a gain or a loss of some amount (varying from 1 to 4 on the stock track), but each turn one stock will pay dividends to anybody who owns it. First, players are all provided the information on what one of the six stocks is going to do on that turn via forecasts. In game terms, 5 is equivalent to $5,000, 10 is $10,000, and so on.Ī round in Stockpile is broken up into six phases, which gives the impression that things are a bit more complicated than they actually are. All of the stocks start with a set price of 5 and that price will fluctuate between 1 and 10 throughout the game. Stockpile is played around a stock board consisting of six stocks, each color-coded and representing some generic corporate entity (big banks, automotive, steel, etc…).
