realpolitik

From the publisher's website: Realpolitik is a fast-paced, tongue-in-cheek game of blackmail, backstabbing, and brinkmanship. Each player represents a dirty-tricks organization of a country, complete with their own funding and political clout. Each round, players draw an Agenda: a person, place or event that is of particular importance to their nation. Player hire Agents to neutralize other country's Agendas (by smearing their good name, bribing the right officials, or simply kidnapping or killing the target) while protecting their own interests. The player who bests safeguards their own Agendas while removing their opponents, wins. Realpolitik comes in a convenient storage envelope with: * 105 cards: o 25 Agents o 55 Actions o 20 Agendas o 5 References * 1 instruction manual To play, you'll need: o Markers in 2 colors and o a way to keep score (or markers in a third color)
