It tries to capture the whole span of this global 18th-century rivalry between Britain and France. From the beginning of the game, the stakes couldn't be higher: in the War of the Spanish Succession, France fights to become the world's first global superpower by uniting erits less army with Sp ain's colonial wealth... all the way to the end, where the British struggle to maintain control over the vast North American territories. There are two types of turns in Imperial Struggle: peace turns and war turns. Each peace turn, an array of Investment Tiles is laid out: each tile represents a diplomatic, military, or economic opportunity your government can exploit. Each tile shows the action points you'll be able to spend when you choose it – but be careful – if there is one Diplomatic tile on , it may be worth denying it to your opponent rather than taking an Economic or Military tile with a higher action point value. With Economic action points you'll extend and develop your control over trade in essential commodities: furs, sugar, cotton, and spices; with Diplomatic ones, you'll negotiate understandings with other European countries and native groups; and with Military points you'll decide the extent of your military preparations for the inevitable wars to come and fortif. y your colonial holdings against unrest. With all three, you'll have the chance to take the lead from your opponent in areas of competition like taxation, industry, and scholarship. You'll also hold Event cards that can be used for a minor benefit regardless of your board position, but which can yield much larger gains if you've planned ahead for them. Event cards can only be played alongside an investment tile of matching type. Taking a leaf from Volko Ruhnke's COIN system, most Events have two versions: pro-French and pro-British. Thus events that went one historically break Safety Warning 対象年齢:13歳以上。 ## Features - Imperial Struggle is a two player game that depicts the 18th century opponents of France and Briten.
