Red Dust Rebellion is already volume XII in GMT’s acclaimed COIN Series. It tells the story of the Martian revolts of the 2250s and the rise of Martian nationalism. The game draw my attention immediately when it was announced by GMT. Its stunning Art Work, interesting story – for the first time in non-historical setting – plus ton of new mechanics and innovations.
I already had chance to play this title and enjoy it. Thus I decided to create series of materials which will help you to start with this title and then master it. I am presenting them below with short description what the particular video covers.
I hope you will find them useful and enjoy this beautiful game!
We begin with an overview of the game – its theme and historical background, key components, core mechanics, and victory conditions. It is the perfect starting point if you want to quickly grasp what the game is about and decide whether it is something for you.
Next, we will take a deeper look at the rules, focusing on the sequence of play, faction pieces, the game board, and the key concepts that drive the system. This section is more procedural and theory-oriented, guiding you step by step through how the game works. In fact, it can serve as a solid alternative to reading the rulebook yourself.
Here we start first of four deep dives into factions of Red Dust Rebellion. What we present? General Faction Overview, its Operations & Specials, prominent Events, Victory Conditions and my subjective evaluation of faction. We first talk about Martian Government.
Second faction detailed analysis – this time rich and influential Corporations.
Red Dust Movement is main antagonist to the set order on Mars. Let see what they can do to ignite their rebellion.
We conclude by presenting Church of Reclaimer. What an unique faction it is – make sure to check!
The above set will give you solid foundation in Red Dust Rebellion. Also, I hope I sparked a bit of interest in you guys to try this title!
