Race to conquer in Imperial Struggle!
The game of Imperial Struggle covers over 100 years of war between England and France. The game is not merely about war: both France and Britain must build the foundations of a colonial empire, deal with the other nations of Europe, and compete for glory. During peace turns, players build economically and take advantage of historical events. Players must choose investments wisely and deny good opportunities to their opponent. During war turns, each theatre of war can bring great rewards but any colonial gains can be diminished during the formation of treaties. At the end of the game, one nation will emerge victorious as the greatest empire in the world, whilst the other will have to settle for second best.
