We the People
A card-driven strategic-level wargame simulating the American Revolutionary War. Players move simplified armies across an abstract network of connected spaces to contest political control of provinces, with commanders rated for combat and strategic effectiveness. Combat resolves through a shared deck of battle cards instead of dice, producing varied outcomes while reflecting unit and leader strengths. A separate deck of strategy cards represents events and actions; each card has different effects depending on which side plays it, shaping the campaign’s ebb and flow and forcing choices about timing and use.
