Diplomacy es el juego de mesa de estrategia militar por antonomasia. Diplomacy permite la negociación entre los jugadores, negociaciones que luego no tienen por que cumplirse.

Instead of using the merchandise printed on the map players will now place the merchandise token by random principle over the map. We included a couple of options. For example a completely open distribution and the option of placing the merchandise face down. So, players know they have to have a trading post with silver to be allowed to develop the banking system. But you need to first find silver before you can create a trading post.

This set contains 25 heroes and events to add some surprise and randomness to the games.

With this expansion players will replace the wooden playing pieces in the three games by wooden blocks that will provide a huge amount of fog of war to the game.

Empire of the Sun Second Edition

Empire of the Sun (EotS) is Mark Herman's third card driven design since he introduced the system to the hobby in We The People. EotS is a strategic level look at the entire War in the Pacific from the attack on Pearl Harbor until the surrender of Japan. EotS is the first card driven game (CDG) to move the system closer to a classic hexagon wargame, while retaining all of the tension and uncertainty people have come to expect from a CDG. Players are cast in the role of MacArthur, Yamamoto, Nimitz, and Mountbatten as you direct your forces across the breadth of the globe from India to Hawaii and from Alaska to Australia. This is represented on a single map based on a 1942 equal area projection of the entire theater of conflict.

Until now.

You thirsted for blood, now drink your fill. -Dante

 Tuscany, 1259. As wealth from crafts and foreign trade elevated northern Italy's urban families above the landed lords, rivalries within and among their cities hardened into conflict between two great parties.

Should any faction gain advantage, others coalesced to resist.
