Struggle of Empires Deluxe
Postano: 20 lip 2019, 10:20
Eagle-Gryphon Games will run a Kickstarter for a new deluxe edition of Martin Wallace’s Struggle of Empires August 15, 2019 with art and layout by João Tereso.
A highly regarded strategy game, Struggle of Empires has long been a candidate for a deluxe edition - and Eagle-Gryphon Games is known for its expertise in creating deluxe quality game editions.
We envision the deluxe edition of Struggle of Empires to share many of the characteristics of our recently-published Vital Lacerda games (Gallerist, Vinhos, Lisboa, Escape Plan, and On Mars) including box size and component quality. We are creating new art, a large and re-imagined game board, enhanced cardboard components, new wood components, and a larger box with a complete storage solution. Most importantly, we have also developed an updated rule book!
We will be posting updated art and components on BGG for the game and have begun with a draft of the new deluxe edition box cover. We will post the updated rules draft and game board soon. The updated rule book clarifies the original rules and examples and also provides several variant rules.
We are very pleased to include 2 new variants just passed on to us from the designer, Martin Wallace.
Other variants are based on designer and fan suggestions. Some address issues of “balance” and “luck” in the game and others provide new ideas for setup. We have reviewed the many discussions, comments, and files on BoardGameGeek.com including discussions and comments by Martin Wallace and members of the Warfrog team who originally produced this excellent game. We have developed those suggestions we felt best integrated with the game and have presented them as variants so that players may choose those that best enable their own personal play preferences.
GAME OVERVIEW
Struggle of Empires is set in the eighteenth century: the age of discovery and sail, a period of colonization and the beginnings of industrialization, and a time of almost constant warfare in Europe and its far-flung colonies.
You will assume the leadership of one of the seven European major powers of that time and direct its military, economic, and political development to compete with your rival major powers. You will make alliances, build armies and fleets, establish colonies, improve your economy, wage war, and manage unrest among your citizenry.
You will decide whether to expand in Europe or take control of colonies in the Americas, Africa, and the Far East. If well made, your choices will guide you to victory in the upcoming struggle of empires!
Draft Cover for Deluxe Edition of Martin Wallace's Struggle of Empires
We chose to use ships of sail for the Struggle of Empires cover as they were the defining symbol of empire and power in the 18th century.
