Today I would like to draw your attention to one of the latest Kickstarter campaigns in area of boardgames – you would not be surprised, that I am recommending the wargame: Radetzky’s March – The Hundred Hours Campaign.
Some information from the crowdfunding page:
HOW TO PLAY
In this game the complexity is very low, the rules are simple and intuitive. The heart of the system is the command: simply check how many points you have in the turn, choose the formations you will activate, put them inside a mug; your opponent does the same, then mix and draw …!
