From BoardGameGeek
At the beginning of 1793, after the execution of King Louis XVI, France was drawn into a war against a coalition of most European monarchies. On 24 February, the National Convention decreed the mass draft of 300,000 men to defend the eastern borders. Throughout the country, revolts broke out against this conscription, everywhere they were brutally repressed with success. However, an insurgent territory, called the "Vendée Militaire" resisted. Determined to engage in a trial of strength with the new revolutionary regime, the Vendéens gradually organised themselves until they formed a "Catholic and Royal Army". Vendée 93, a card driven two player wargame, takes you back to this particularly epic period in the French history, which pitted the young French Republic against the Royalist insurgents from March to October 1793. "White" or "Blue", choose your cause and take command of your troops! "White": you will have to take the advantage quickly at the risk of seeing the Republican forces inexorably strengthen, forcing you into a sinister "Virée de Galerne". "Blues": time is on your side, resist the first assaults of the "brigands" to then be able to face the hell of the bocage in order to definitively extinguish the insurrection. -description from the publisher 2026 Storia Ludica Comenio Award Nominee 2026 Storia Ludica Comenio Special Mention
