To Kyiv!

Description

To Kyiv! is a card-driven wargame that simulates this modern conflict at the brigade level, capturing both the chaos of the early invasion and the methodical, grinding war that followed. The game uses a shared deck of event cards to guide the unfolding narrative, while each player also wields a hand of faction-specific cards representing operational choices, tactical initiatives, and political pressures. Time advances in variable intervals, reflecting the changing tempo of operations, from fast-moving breakthroughs to long periods of stalemate. Players must balance bold offensives with the realities of logistics, morale, and international support. This is not just a test of military skill, it is a struggle for initiative, adaptation, and endurance in one of the most consequential conflicts of the 21st century. To Kyiv! is a historical simulation designed to model the strategic and operational dimensions of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. —description from the designer
