Whiskey Traders társasjáték

Angol leírás

In Whiskey Traders, you recreate the history of the Wild West from 1873 to 1890.

Whiskey Traders is best described as a crossover game with elements from the Euro, Wargame, Ameritrash and Historical Simulation genres.

You will play three factions simultaneously. Each side has their own agenda.

1. On the Canadian (CDN) side you will play the Northwest Mounted Police (NWMP) trying to build Forts and establish peaceful relations with the First Nations (FN) people. Canadian victory points score double if the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) track completes.

2. On the United States (US) side, you will play the US Army who are trying to build Forts and move the FN tribes to Reservations. You will also play the American Whiskey Traders who are building Whiskey Posts on both sides of the border in an attempt to swindle the FN tribes out of precious Bison Hides. US victory points score double if the Bison become extinct.

3. You will also play a First Nation or Métis Tribe. They are trying to survive, maintain tradition, and adjust to the growing European settlement. FN victory points score double if the 10 card Event Deck completes before the CPR reaches its final destination or before the Bison become extinct.

A fourth end game condition exists where you score an immediate individual victory if you manage to be the only FN tribe who hasn’t been forced onto a Reservation.

Which faction will shape history and win the Western frontier?
