About this game
During the period between the "French-Prussian Wars" and the beginning of the "First World War", Europe was pervaded by great optimism and incredible innovations both in science and arts. All European Powers took a dangerous path towards an open conflict by developing new weapons, by conquering the last free territories in Africa and Asia and by attempting to gain control of other countries across Europe! In "La Belle Époque" Central Empires, France, Great Britain and Russia will ruthlessly compete with each other to gain supremacy over the others in an escalation of tension that will lead Europe to World War One !
Does it fit your group?
- Group size. Works with 1 to 4. It has a designed solo mode.
- Rules load. At 3.1/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
- Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
