From BoardGameGeek
Colonizers have built a military fortress and are waging a brutal invasion of your lands. Can you prevent their wagons from bringing supplies to the fort and burn it to the ground before the train reaches the Golden Spike? In Burn the Fort, each player takes the role of a historic warrior fighting to stop colonial invasion of their lands. Players take turns gathering and playing cards, trading, battling wagons, and gathering fire tokens and the necessary arrowhead tokens to burn the fort. Everyone starts the game in an alliance, but alliances can be broken. To win the game, players can choose how much they wish to work together while facing colonial forces. With each wagon that reaches the fort, the train moves forward towards the Golden Spike that will bring mass colonial invasion and an end to the fierce anti-colonial resistance. Burn the Fort is a semi-cooperative game in which you'll face history in challenging and empowering ways. -description from the publisher
