Description
Arms & Influence is a political strategy card game where you and up to three other players compete to build the world's most dominant power. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, you'll dive into a world of set collection and strategic planning, all in a playtime of just 25 to 60 minutes. Designed by Andrew Richards and published in 2021, this game is perfect for those who enjoy card games, civilization-building, and political maneuvering. Your goal is to achieve 7 Victory Points by advancing your society and outmaneuvering your opponents. As you play, you'll build a social pyramid by collecting population cards, which give you access to valuable resources like Military Strength, Equality, Espionage, and Production. These resources are used to obtain Advancements, such as landing a man on Mars or building a nuclear submarine, each worth a Victory Point. But it's not just about collecting resources - you'll also need to strategically elect leaders and modify your pyramid to get ahead. And with Action cards that can disrupt your opponents' plans, the road to victory is full of challenges. Compete to win Competitions, outmaneuver your opponents, and be the first to reach 7 Victory Points to emerge victorious in Arms & Influence.
