Twilight Struggle is a two-player game
simulating the 45 year dance of intrigue, prestige, and occasional flares of
warfare between the USSR and the USA. The entire world is the stage on which
these two titans fight. The game begins amidst the ruin sof Europe as the
two new superpowers scramble over the wreckage of WWII, and ends in
1989, when only the United States remained standing.
Twilight Struggle inherits its
fundamental systems from the card-driven classics 'We the People' and
'Hannibal'. It is a quick-playing, low-complexity game in that tradition.
The game map is a world map of the period, whereon players move units and
exert influence in attempts to gain allies and control for their superpower.
Twilight Struggle's Event cards add
detail and flavour to the game. They cover a vast array of historical
happenings: the Arab-Israeli conflicts, Vietnam, the peace movement, the
Cuban Missile Crisis and other such incidents that brought the world to the
brink of nuclear annihilation. Subsystems capture the prestige-laden Space
Race as well as nuclear tensions, with the possibility of game-ending
nuclear war. Can you, as the U.S. President or Soviet Premier, lead your
forces to victory? Play Twilight Struggle, and find out.
