Description
Part of GMT's Lunchtime Series, Twilight Struggle: Red Sea – Conflict in the Horn of Africa is a two-player card driven game that builds on the award winning Twilight Struggle.
The year is 1974, and the Soviet Union and the United States have been locked in a life-or-death struggle across the globe. As so often happened during the Cold War, a relatively obscure region of the globe suddenly took center stage. Emperor Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia, a bedrock U.S. ally in Africa, had grown old and increasingly dictatorial. When he was overthrown in 1974, a Marxist coalition took the reins of power. This new revolutionary leadership initiated a chain of events that upset the regional balance of power and unleashed all the familiar elements of Cold War competition in the Horn of Africa.
With a more limited scope and much shorter playtime, Twilight Struggle: Red Sea is the perfect way to introduce new players to the Twilight Struggle system, while maintaining all the tension, decision making, and theme of the original classic. The cards from Twilight Struggle can be used in TS: Red Sea and vice versa.

Almost as good as the original | |
If you like Twilight Struggle but think it takes too long to play then you'll love this. Has all the strategy of the original but can be played in under half an hour. I haven't tried the solo mode yet but it comes with really nice booklet to run the game solo. |

Very good game | |
This is advertised as a shorter more accessible version of the classic Twilight Struggle. That is exactly what it is, a great way to have a quicker game (45 minutes) than the original (2 1/2 hours). Obviously it does not have the same scope as the original. |

Excellent service! | |
J'ai fait transféré d'une autre succursale vers celle de Laval le jeu Twilight Struggle un samedi et le lundi le magasin m'appelait pour me dire que ma commande était arrivée! Merci pour l'excellent service! |
