This week we have put one of the boardgame hypes of 2011 in our shop window.

Warriors & Traders is a pure strategy game that combines economy, negotiation and war, making it, as some of the fans are saying, a Euro game disguised in a war game.

In the beginning every player chooses his starting country and starts owning only the capital province, striving to build up an empire. The main mechanic of the game is taking Actions, two per turn for each player. These Actions can be used to develop one of the country's technologies, to build armies, Forts, to upgrade armies or to declare war against an opponent.

During a turn, every player gets to feed armies, to gather resources from the provinces he or she owns, to take the two Actions and to perform the military phase, moving armies and solving battles.

The aim of the game is to accumulate Victory Points. They are obtained by killing the Barbarians populating the map from the very beginning of the game or opponents units, by building Forts, by controlling provinces, by developing technologies and in exchange for Gold. So many ways, just to make the game fun for both war gamers and peaceful players who are looking for a Euro game experience.

Now available in our webshop and in our gamecenters for 39,90 Euro instead of 49,90 Euro. This deal will last until sunday, the 14th of May.
