    • The Toledo War - Schotten-Totten style fun, quick card game from Amabel Holland @ Hollandspiele about the historical conditions of Michigan becoming a state. Was the free game giveaway for their 2019 Holiday Sale. Played a couple rounds before everyone arrived.

    • Land and Freedom: The Spanish Civil War - Currently, my favorite game. The Semi-Cooperative nature of it is fantastic. Note: has a limit of 3 players. You have to work together with your political opponents to defeat the fascists. Unfortunately, we lost at the beginning of Year 3 this round.

        Yeah, the game controls the fascist Falange/Carlists via Event Cards which happen every turn. The three player factions are Anarcho-Syndicalists, Communists, and Moderates. Each has their own priorities, but ultimately if you don’t work together the fascists will win. I highly recommend checking out some videos on it. The YT channel Homo Ludens has a Tabletop Sim play-through with the designer helping as they play.

        I’m not Spanish, though did just visit!
