The object of Gunrunners is to confiscate more crates of weapons than your opponents.

During the game, crates of weapons are delivered to the different locations, so some locations will have more weapons than others. At the end of the game, players confiscate weapons from each of the locations based upon how many agents they deployed to that location.
