Description

The Game to Reunite the United States What if a crisis has split the U.S. into many polarized factions? What would it take to reunite the United States? Played on an area map of the U.S., through skillful play, combined with the luck of the dice and random event cards, players assume control of a faction that is trying to reunite a hypothetical "shattered" U.S. by any means necessary... military or economic. The game is played through a variable number of turns until either a player wins an "automatic" victory (i.e.-controls more than 1/2 the map) or turns are played out in which case the player with the most controlled areas wins.
