Four factions fight for Cuba's future: government, revolutionaries, students, and criminals.
Vibe's take
political insurgency, factional asymmetry, card-driven, tight map, COIN series
Who it's for
COIN fans and history buffs who want a tight, fast asymmetric political simulation.
Not for you if…
You want quick play. Even as the smallest COIN, this requires 2-3 hours to appreciate.
Four factions fight for Cuba's future in the second COIN series volume: Batista's government, Castro's revolutionaries, the student Directorio, and crime Syndicate. Each faction wins differently through area control, popular support, casinos, or revolutionary cells. Card events drive the action, and the inter-faction dynamics create fascinating alliances. The smallest COIN map makes for a tighter, faster game than later entries. Bots allow solo and 2-player games. A political insurgency simulation with genuine factional asymmetry.
