Description

Altar of Freedom: Grand Tactical Battles in the American Civil War is a game that drops you into the midst of the American Civil War, where you'll take on the role of a corps or army general. With easy-to-learn rules, you'll focus on coordinating your divisions to be in the right place at the right time, rather than micromanaging individual regiments. The game is designed for 2 players and can take around 240 minutes to play, giving you a deep and immersive experience. As you play, you'll use a variety of mechanics, including auction and bidding, dice rolling, and line of sight, to outmaneuver your opponent. The game's variable turn clock adds an extra layer of strategy, as you'll need to balance your bids for priority with the need to control the clock and dictate the pace of the battle. With its historical scenarios and focus on grand tactical battles, Altar of Freedom is a game that will challenge and engage you, whether you're a history buff or just a fan of strategic gameplay.
