📖 About This Game

"Forest of the Impaled: Vlad Dracula's Final Stand" is a cooperative wargame where up to 6 Muslim players invade and attempt to conquer Romania. Heavily outnumbered, the Dracula player fights with his Christian army to defend his country and survive. It is loosely based on the historical campaign of Vlad 'Dracula' Tepes in 1462. To defeat Dracula, the Muslim players must cooperate closely as a team BUT they can ONLY communicate IF their HQs are in the same area. This results in hysterical fun. Miscommunication and confusion reign as Dracula picks off his enemies in detail. —description from the publisher
