Server: room registry with 4-letter codes, host/join/start flow, the
authoritative command loop (seed + append-only command log per room —
the replay/async foundation), and per-player redacted views and events
broadcast after every change. Client: lobby, SVG board (floors, walls,
doors, homes, color-keyed treasures and wizard tokens matching the
physical set's six colors, warp arrows), click-to-move, click-to-punch,
card hand with tooltips from verified card text, cast flow with number
card attachment and waterbolt split, edge-click targeting for wall
spells, counteract-or-pass prompt, discard flow, end-turn draw
selector, and a humanized event log. Verified end-to-end over real
websockets with two clients: join, start, private deals, moves, turn
sync.

The attack/counteraction stack: casting an attack (or punching) opens a
stack; the defender counteracts or passes, the attacker may respond
(ANTI-ANTI nullifies a counter), and resolution runs the damage
pipeline in play order. First effect wave, encoded from verified card
text: Fireball (flat 5 + destroys carried magic stones if damage gets
through), Lightning Blast (number damage + stun unless fully stopped),
Powerthrust (2 + optional number), Waterbolt (caster-chosen
damage/knockback split with push-away movement), Blunt (halve, round
result up), Absorb (-3), Full Shield (spell-only stop), Reflection
(half to both), Full Reflection (redirect), Absorb Spell (nullify and
steal the attack card), Create/Destroy Wall (dynamic edge overrides
layered over the board; collapse deals 4 to adjacent squares), Speed
(extra turn), and TRAP! on draw (lose next turn, redraw). Lost turns
skip on advance; unimplemented cards refuse to cast with a clear
error. 35 tests passing.

Pure deterministic game core in @wizwar/engine: seeded RNG (mulberry32,
state in GameState so seed+commands replays identically), sector
assembly with rotation, junction merging, and wraparound warps
(configurable pairings; the 2p diagram crosses its side openings),
movement (3 + one number card), geometric line of sight, deck building
from the verified card data (asserts 125/200 totals), and the
command-to-event reducer: setup with TRAP! redraw and die-roll first
player, punching (no combat round 1, no self-attack, once per turn),
damage/death with killer-takes-cards and forced discard, treasure
stealing with both victory conditions, pick-up-ends-turn, and
end-of-turn draw. Events carry full spatial detail for future replay
rendering; private card knowledge rides on visibleTo events with a
redaction helper. 21 tests passing.

IMG_4684-4687: all 33 token types, six double-sided wizard standees
(front and back views), and 12 color-keyed treasure tokens documented
in research/tokens-6e.md. Verification checklist is now fully closed.

Owner-measured: sector boards are 7.5in to a side (1.5in per space);
no errata sheet in the 6e box. Closes the physical checklist except
the optional counter-sheet inventory.

IMG_4680-4683: Butt-Head and Mega-Monster (the last two cards with no
text from any source) transcribed verbatim; Force Field, Gift From
Above, Redirection, Dimensional Warp renames confirmed; Troll, Wraith,
Skeleton, Thought Steal, Warp Wand, Sticky Wand faces verified; number
cards confirmed to carry no rules text. cards.json is now 208 verbatim
/ 9 paraphrased / 3 uncertain (all Exp2, not owned). VERIFICATION.md
updated to v3 with all priority checks done.

cards.json: 220 cards across base/Exp1/Exp2 with official 6E quantities
from Eric's rulebook (base = exactly 125, Exp1 = exactly 75), verbatim
text for all but two cards, FAQ rulings, and per-card verification
flags. boards.json: all six sector layouts, now physically verified
against Eric's board photos with zero corrections (research/
boards-verification.md), plus 2-8 player setup configurations.
rules-notes.md is the engine implementer's reference; VERIFICATION.md
tracks the few remaining spot-checks (Butt-Head and Mega-Monster card
text foremost).

npm workspaces with three TypeScript packages: @wizwar/engine (pure
game logic), @wizwar/server (Node websocket authority), @wizwar/web
(Svelte 5 + Vite client). Server handshake and client build verified.
