Read the full game description
The Guerrilla Generation is a card-driven historical strategy game covering four Cold War insurgencies in Latin America. Players direct distinct factions in Uruguay, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Peru, using event cards, area movement, resources, and variable powers to pursue sharply different political aims. Each scenario places military pressure beside legitimacy, organization, and public support, making control more complicated than simply occupying territory. Separate maps and decks give the conflicts their own identities, while a linked campaign provides a broader arc. Solo support allows each scenario to be studied outside a full multiplayer group.
