Description

Pax Baltica is a two-player wargame that drops you into the midst of the Great Northern War, a 21-year conflict that ravaged Northern and Eastern Europe from 1700 to 1721. As the youthful King Karl XII of Sweden faces off against a coalition of rivals, you'll take on the role of one of these powers, navigating the complex web of alliances and rivalries that defined the era. With a unique blend of action points, area movement, and secret unit deployment, you'll need to outmaneuver your opponent to emerge victorious. From the snowy landscapes of Norway to the sun-baked plains of Turkey, the game spans a vast and dynamic map, with units represented by labeled wooden blocks that conceal their identity and strength from the enemy. With multiple scenarios to choose from, including a grand campaign that refights the entirety of the war, you'll be challenged to adapt and evolve your strategy to succeed in this epic struggle for dominance. Will you save Sweden's empire or ensure Russia's rise to prominence? The fate of the Baltic region is in your hands.
