War! Age of Imperialism II

War! Age of Imperialism is a game of empire building, exploration, economic expansion, technological advancement, diplomacy, and tactical battles in the age of Imperialism (1830 - 1900). Players rule one of the great powers of the era as they attempt to carve out an empire. Should they build up their army or economy? Negotiate or attack? Spend on research or a new fort to protect the frontier?

The game comes with 3 levels of rules (basic, standard, advanced), a huge game board (46×36 in) and 816 molded plastic figures.


Finally got around to playing a game yesterday, quite enjoyable and useful as a miniature campaign generator!

When I was 10 I made a cardboard castle which had battlements, inner and outer gates and towers. The pointed square bricks on the balconies were the hardest to make but I somehow managed to do it. We had only plastic soldiers but as enemy forces closed in, wrecking the castle and forcing surrender was fun.
