The Collapse
DescriptionThe Collapse is a wargame that will be published in Spanish and English, which has a point-to-point mechanic for 2 players (with an optional multiplayer rule, and solo system under playtest) with a common deck (CDG), depicting the epic campaigns of the Thirty Years' War in Europe between 1618 and 1648. Each player takes on the role of a faction (Catholic or Protestant), seeking to direct the fate of the "Holy Roman German Empire" while pursuing their own national interests, allowing to reproduce bold moves and influence or control Regions in the Holy Roman Empire, Flanders and the United Provinces, Northern Italy and Hungary. With the crucial support of foreign nations both military (troops) and with 'Subsidies' (financial resources) will help to achieve victory for one of the two game’ factions. The Collapse is an intense and very fun game, which is easy to play due to its main mechanics (point to point) and being a card engine (CDG), but with unique aspects such as the planning phase at the beginning of the turn, the prestige points that grant more options to the players (leaders, abilities and much more), and the intense but impressive diplomacy of 9 nations (Saxony, Brandenburg, England, Papacy, Hungary, Spain, Denmark, Sweden and France). Each card has Operations Points (OPS), which allow you to play the card for Operations and/or the event by paying its cost from the OPS of the card, giving many different game options and strategies. The game has 10 turns, with an average time length of 50 minutes per turn (2-3 years) and a duration of 5 hours for the complete campaign, although it has several shorter scenarios from 2 to 6 turns which includes the Bohemia Palatinate campaign (recommended to play as the first scenario and which will also serve as an example of the game), the Danish, Swedish and French Interventions, or the Cardinal Infante Fernando march. With the recommended optional rule that players can go one more turn with some modifiers if they want to continue playing once the scenario is over and they are having fun. The sequence of each game turn is divided into 4 main phases:
