New Cold War

Description

New Cold War is a gripping board game that drops you into the midst of a global power struggle, where one to four players take on the roles of the world's greatest powers - Russia, China, the US, and the EU. Set against the backdrop of real-world events from 1989 to 2019, this game is all about navigating the complex web of international politics, where alliances are forged and broken with ease. At the start, you'll find yourself cooperating with your allies, working together to achieve common goals, but as the game wears on, it's every player for themselves in a mad dash for supremacy. As you play, you'll need to manage a delicate balance of military might, international prestige, and control of key regions and countries. The media is also a powerful tool at your disposal, and mastering it can be a major factor in your success. But beware - your opponents are working to undermine your efforts at every turn, and the United Nations Security Council vetoes can be a powerful wildcard. With a playtime of 150 to 180 minutes, New Cold War is a serious commitment, but the depth and complexity of the gameplay make it well worth the investment. The game mechanics, designed by Andoni Orive and Igor Plaza, are of normal complexity, making it easy for experienced board game players to dive right in. With its unique blend of cooperation and competition, New Cold War offers a thrilling experience that's different every time you play. Whether you're playing with friends or going solo, the game's variable phase order and hidden victory points ensure that you'll need to stay on your toes to emerge victorious. And with the option to play with two, three, or four players, as well as a solitaire mode, you can enjoy New Cold War whenever and however you want. So gather your friends, choose your power, and get ready to shape the future of the world in this epic game of global politics and strategy.
