Description
America had struggled through tumultuous political times before — from the 1800 election to 1824 to 1860 to 1872 — but we live through times today that would seem unbelievable just 60 years ago. In 1960, Kennedy beat Nixon and ushered in the next new age of high-stakes politics. Everything seemed to matter more after that. Sides were drawn and positions hardened. From that 1960 election, things have digressed through the decades to where we are today.
Based on the very well-received Warriors of God system, Warriors of Politics takes these inconceivable times and lets players determine what might change over the decades that followed. Players will represent the ardent supporters of Conservatives and Liberalism and use the power of the office of the President to try and advance their agendas. But pitfalls are everywhere — from issues that can derail a presidency to sudden health issues to sex scandals, your agenda may fail.
Your chosen political warrior will have to navigate the minefields of an election to gain the highest office in the land. There will be debates, scandals, flubs, pratfalls, health issues, and battling supporters. This isn’t politics. This is war!
