Description

Lincoln is a strategic board game set in the American Civil War, designed for two players. The game is easy to learn and takes around 90 to 120 minutes to play. Players take on the roles of the Union and Confederate armies, using point-to-point movement and area control to outmaneuver each other. The game features hidden army strengths and decks of cards that provide command choices and luck, with no dice rolling required. As the game progresses, the Union player becomes stronger by adding better quality cards to their deck, while the Confederate player becomes weaker with lower quality cards. Players must carefully manage their cards, deciding which to sacrifice permanently to build units and gain an advantage. With its unique deck destruction mechanism and historical setting, Lincoln offers a fun and challenging experience for fans of wargames and the American Civil War.
