Worthington Publishing Crisis: 1914 Board Game WOG WPUB094

Description

Crisis: 1914 puts 1 - 5 players in the shoes of the top diplomats in the July Crisis leading to World War I. Can you stop this tragedy? Crisis: 1914 is a game of international brinkmanship - if you back down too soon, you lose. If you back down too late you lose.  

But you also have hawks and doves in your cabinet and in your government, and out of these conflicting views you must somehow formulate a coherent response to the crisis to win the day and prevent war.

June 28, 1914, the assassination of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, and his wife, plunged Europe into a diplomatic crisis that turned into a war that engulfed the world. In some interpretations, this assassination lit a powder keg that had lain beneath the networked foundations of international relations for decades. But it didn’t have to be this way. The central contention of Crisis: 1914 is that, for all the festering tension, war was avoidable.
