So inset up A Distant Plain again with Stephen as Government, Richard as Taliban (his choice) and control of Coalition and Warlords residing avec moi.
Set up the ‘short’ scenario Obama's War (4 decks) although we only managed 2 Propaganda rounds, in just under 3 hours, but they were 21 cards apart !
Government was ahead at one stage but managed to pin them back avoiding possible auto-win.
Coalition done well but Warlords way of the mark as were the Taliban.
Do love the COIN games such a nice balance of game and history in playable format.
Only a pic of set up as too engrossed in playing/teaching the game
A game that really intrigues me every time you have it on your table. One day I’ll get a copy for myself.
ReplyDeleteGive it a try on Vassal maybe to see it in 'action' ? not the same for me as physical game but does work.
