| |
| The {{nihongo|'''Command Board'''|コマンドボード|Komando Bōdo}} is the board game level-up system in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''. It can be used to power up your [[Deck Commands]] used in battle by gaining Command Panels and leveling them up. You toss the dice and move toward your goal, gaining Board Points (BP) along the way. The player also will have the chances to steal BP from their rivals and use certain panels and Command Cards to their advantage. When it is your turn you have the option to roll the die, use one of your Command Cards, check the status of the game or choose different options to adjust gameplay and help.
| |
|
| |
|
| After you roll the dice, you can go any direction on the board except from the direction you just came from. There is no specific path you have to take in order to win the game. There is a certain number of total BP that a player must have before winning the game. Once you've arrived back at the starting point and have the required number of total BP, you have finished the game. The winner can win new commands and medals to be used in the Moogle Shop. Even if you didn't win, your commands will still be leveled up.

| ==Playable Boards==
| | I will be posting soon, as soon as I get the flavor of your forum. |
| Here is a list of the playable boards in the game. Each Command Board is based off of a world and has a different panel formation to represent that world. The boards are available to play once the adventures in the respective world are completed.

| | Greetings, |
| You will control [[Terra]], [[Aqua]], or [[Ventus]] based upon whose storyline you are playing through.
| |
| ===World Characters===
| |
| Besides your own character piece, you will play the game along with certain Disney characters. The Disney characters that appear on the board will only show up for the board for their respective worlds. You can play with two players or only one. You can choose from a set order of who will go first or you and the other characters will roll a die to see what the order will be. Below is a list of characters that have been confirmed so far.

| ====BP Counter====
| |
| The BP Counter is in the bottom right corner and keeps track of all the character's current and total BP. The above number is your current BP. You can spend this like cash and can use it to buy panels or to pay other character's panels when you are stopped on them. The bottom number is your total BP which is the total of your current BP and the points that you have used on panels of your own. The BP Counter also shows which character is which color and how many of the Check panels the character's have passed through.
| |
| | |
| ====Map====
| |
| At the top right corner, there is a map of the current game board. It shows you the character pieces' position, which command panels are claimed by certain characters, which white command panels are still available, where the four checkpoint panels are, and where the Keyhole starting panel is.
| |
| | |
| ==Command Cards==
| |
| [[File:Command_Board4.jpg|thumb|250px|The Command Card menu.]]
| |
| Command Cards are cards that represent [[Deck Command]]s or Action Commands that you have and have not been mastered yet. The cards are given to you at the start of the game. You can hold up to five cards in your hand at a time. You can use them after you have purchased Command Panels to set a certain deck command or action command to level up. You can also activate different effects by spending them before you roll the dice. The different types of command cards and effects are:

| |
| There are some command cards that can protect you from Special Panels.
| |
| | |
| If you run out of command cards you can no longer buy command panels. If you reach a Check Panel, you receive one command card and if you reach the Start Panel after passing all check panels you will receive as many command cards as you can hold.
| |
| {{-}}
| |
| | |
| ==Panels==
| |
| There are many different kinds of panels that are on the game board that each have their own purpose.
| |
| | |
| ===Start Panel===
| |
| The start panel is a yellow panel with a Keyhole on it. You start the game here and once you make it back to this panel, the game will be over. If you simply pass over this panel after reaching all four Check Panels, you will be rewarded with BP from Lap Bonus, Panel Bonus and Card Bonus.
| |
| | |
| ===Check Panels===
| |
| There are four check panels throughout the board that act as checkpoints. There is a blue one, a red one, a green one and a yellow one. Although you do not need to pass through all four panels to end the game, you will be rewarded with extra BP if you pass through them all and land on the start panel.
| |
| | |
| ===Command Panels===
| |
| There are white command panels that can become yours after landing on them, paying a certain amount of BP and selecting one of your Command Cards. After you purchase a command panel, it is colored to represent that you have bought it and it shows what level the command is at. If someone stops on one of your purchased command panels it takes BP from their current BP and their total BP, but if you land on a command panel of another character you will have to pay them BP. The number on the panel is the amount of BP you or someone else has to pay. You also have the choice of stealing the panel from the person but you have to pay a large amount of BP.
| |
| | |
| If you've stopped on your Command Panels you can spend your current BP to level up them. You can also level them up by landing on a Check Panel or the Start Panel and selecting whatever Command Panel you want. If you level them up you can take more BP from other players when they land on your panel and your Deck Commands will receive more CP in normal battle. You can level up your command panels all they way until they are mastered. The amount of how much BP you will get from the game is decided by various things like the position and value of the panel.
| |
| | |
| ===Bonus Panels===
| |
| From the beginning of the game, some Command Panels are set as Bonus Panels and are represented by a gold star. Landing on the Bonus Panel allows the player to receive a new Deck Command without using a Command Card while still having to pay for it.
| |
| | |
| [[File:Basic Command Board Blocks.png|thumb|right|The Prize Cube panel that is used to navigate the damage panels.]]
| |
| ===Damage Panels and Prize Cube===
| |
| Damage Panels are board spaces that are flat squares instead of cubes. If you land on one of these, you will lose the amount of BP from both your current and total BP that is displayed on the panel. There is one way to avoid these panels and that is a panel that looks like a present called the Prize Cube and can be rolled around to travel over the damage panels safely. The BP that has been taken from the damage panels will be given to the Prize Cube.
| |
| | |
| However, there is a limit to how many panels the Prize Cube can go and once the counter reaches zero, the panel disappears and leaves you stranded on the damage panels. Once this happens, the damage panel usually takes away BP from you but if you get the Prize Cube to the end of its path and it collapses at the same time, the cube remains and instead gives you the BP inside and the BP taken from players on the damage panels. You can also take over control of the present panel while someone else is on it and they will fall onto the damage panel and lose BP.
| |
| | |
| ===Special Panels===
| |
| [[File:CommandBoard3.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Ven activating the Experiment 221 special event, "Electric Spark".]]
| |
| If you land on a special panel which is gold and purple in coloration, a unique event will occur. These events are carried out by other characters from the world which board you are playing. These events may help and others may hinder your progress as well. Here are the known characters and their events:
| |
| | |
| *[[Experiment 221]]: "Electric Spark": Allows the player to steal BP from other characters.
| |
| *[[Fairy Godmother]]: "Bibbidi-bobbidi-boo": Gives the player the value of a single dice roll times 300 BP.
| |
| *[[Rabbit]]: "Honey Paradise": Places pots of Hunny over the game board that can either give you BP or, if they have [[Honey Bee]]s, take away BP points.
| |
| *[[Captain Justice]]: "Captain Justice": He will follow a player, and he will reward BP every turn, but he will follow a different player if they come in contact with the first. This effect eventually wears off.
| |
| *[[Captain Dark]]: "Captain Dark": He will follow a player, and every turn he will either steal BP or purchase a space on their behalf, regardless of whether they can afford it. He will follow a different player if they come in contact with the first. This effect eventually wears off.
| |
| *[[Chip and Dale]]: "Fantasia": Rewards 300 BP plus an additional 300 BP for every space owned.
| |
| *[[Terra]], [[Ventus]], or [[Aqua]] (whoever you are playing as): "Keyblade Rider" allows the player to move to any spot on the game board.
| |
| {{-}}
| |
| | |
| ===BP Up Panel===
| |
| The BP Up Panel is a black panel that increases the rate of BP you receive when people land on your panels, when you land on the checkpoint and starting panels and if you successfully use the Prize Cube on the damage panels.
| |
| | |
| ==Wireless Gameplay==
| |
| [[File:CommandBoard2.jpg|thumb|250px|right|Command Board play in the Mirage Arena]]
| |
| Like regular battle has [[Joint Struggle]] multiplayer gameplay with the Mirage Arena world, the Command Board game has its own wireless multiplayer gameplay option that allows you to play on all the different world game boards. You can play as either Terra, Aqua, and Ventus and they will appear as they do in their armor. The rules are the same as the single player Command Board and you can still gain BP to level up your Deck Commands.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *Tetsuya Nomura explains that he included a board-game element because he enjoyed board games as a child in elementary school, and even used to make his own.
| |
| *In the ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' Ultimania, there is artwork and images of a [[Neverland]] Command Board. It is unknown why it was taken out of the game or if it will be available in the international versions.
