Twilight Struggle (2005) Quiz

from Rusty on the Rules: board game rules refreshers

A taste of Twilight Struggle: a few questions to see how much you still remember, in 3 minutes. The whole refresher — the setup, how a turn goes, the rules people often forget, and how the game ends and is scored — is in the contributors' feed, along with every other episode. This one is the short version. You are the United States or the Soviet Union, and you win by driving the Victory Point marker far enough in your favor, ideally reaching twenty points before the end of turn ten. You do that by spending Operations from event cards to place Influence in countries around the world, then scoring regions when the timing suits you, while using coups, realignments and the Space Race to knock your opponent back. 2005 · GMT Games, LLC · 2 players Twilight Struggle on the site: rustyontherules.com/episodes/twilight-struggle Anyone can add a game: upload its rulebook PDF at rustyontherules.com and we write and record the episode.
