Lincoln

Lincoln is a fast-paced, card-driven strategy wargame set in the American Civil War allowing you to re-fight the entire war at a strategic level in under two hours. Gameplay uses area movement and area control, with decks of cards providing your command choices and luck – there are no dice in Lincoln. The Union and Confederate players each have their own card decks, reflecting the historical strengths and weaknesses of both sides. The underlying game mechanism is one of ‘deck destruction’ – the opposite of deck building. You have to decide which cards are going to be sacrificed from your deck cycle to allow you to build units and provide leadership in battles.
