The Burning of Kingston Card Game

Angol leírás

It is October 1777. The Continental Army has just won its first major victory at Saratoga, and the British “Redcoats” are furious. Looking for retaliation, Lieutenant-General John Vaughn is leading forces to New York's current capital, the city of Kingston, with orders to burn it to the ground. And, although most of the town's soldiers are away fighting in the south, a few brave colonists have stayed behind to salvage what they can before the town is destroyed.

This is our history. This is the story of our game.

In the Burning of Kingston Card Game one player will play as the Kingstonians: everyday people who, upon hearing of the British ships docked at the Rondout, race to rescue valuables, keepsakes and important documents from the doomed town.

The other player will play as the Redcoats, British soldiers, who have been ordered to march on the town and burn down its buildings.
