About Martyr: Bloody Theater 1528, from BoardGameGeek:
Those criminals are being called “Heretics!” “Enemies of the Government!” “Messengers of the Antichrist!” And you're compelled to join them.
Europe, early 1500s. Now, the State Church has determined that you, too, deserve a terminal sentence for committing multiple crimes – that is, what they have decided are crimes.
But you are scheming to seize a rare opportunity: To use your final act to subvert the State Church's effort towards full governmental supremacy. Armed only with a message and your final breaths, can you use them shrewdly in the ultimate performance of your life?
In Martyr: Bloody Theater 1528, you will push your luck with your dwindling breaths to shape public opinion through action selection, while controlling the advantage, or disadvantage, of player turn order. But stay focused, because as you incentivize other players to aid your cause, you may also be delivering them to victory…
Contend valiantly!
