@Ilopsen It's Zman Games so ZNN works just fine for me. I liked that detail when I was checking out he game on Board Game Geek.

This is a really nice game, especially if you are like Twilight Struggle or 1960: the making of the president.

[Ilopsen]

ZNN? Really?

[XShrike0]

I was thinking that this might actually be a bad game for people interested in politics. Some people get a little crazy about this stuff.

Good review. Good insight. Way to stay impartial--I know it can be tough!

[YoksterMan]

Looks like an interesting game, and I wouldn't mind learning more about the US election system.

Learn Adavanced Squad Leader, it'll be quicker and make more sense. My $0.02.

This has been in my collection for several months now. It is a great 2 player game, even if you do not have any political interest. I suppose being familiar with some of the campaign strategies is a bonus, but certainly not necessary to learn and enjoy this game.

[twentysides]

This may be my favorite 2 player game. It works great as a gateway game too - my dad really enjoys it. I find that if you're playing with someone with strong political leanings, it's best to have them play the side they're against, because it helps de-personalize the theme. Anyway, great review.

[Phreakiboi]

This is a really interesting theme for a game. And it looks pretty fun!  I think it would've been better to not use any specific American election, but to use made up candidates. I wonder if there will be an expansion that introduces the Green and Libertarian parties, lol.

[wargamecop]

I thought it was boring and lacked replayabilty. I traded mine off. By far the weakest of the designers games.

@jazzbass6219 ?

[PsychoEditor]

This sounds like the best political board game, not offensive while still taking into account effecting factors.

[Trastasule]

Thanks, I have 1960, great game, was thinking about this one or Twilight Struggle.

[invalidacess]
