BASE GAME INCLUDES EL PRESIDENTE EXPANSION! Ship merchandise, construct and utilize buildings...in this strategy game slightly reminiscent of "Puerto Rico". Bundle includes the El Presidente expansion (NEW in wrap).
1. CUBA BASE (USED)
Cuba reminds some of Puerto Rico: players take on different roles, construct buildings, produce goods and can ship these as well. Gameplay shows a totally different story though. Players can choose 4 out of 5 roles and secretly plan when to use them. On his turn a player can choose to use the role he picked (in order) or to take a neutral action. Every round laws are added in the game which have effect on the gameplay - after each round players vote if the laws stay or new ones come in effect.
Cuba prior to the revolution: Under turbulent circumstances, the villages of the island strive for independent wealth and influence. Who can buy and sell his products and goods on the domestic market profitably or take in the most on the trading ships? Who can send the right delegate to parliament in order to influence the government legislative process, or erect distilleries, hotels and banks at the right moment to the benefit of his village? Whoever has accumulated the most victory points at the end of the game, wins. Players earn victory points by shipping merchandise from the harbor, but also by erecting and using buildings, and by abiding by the law.
2. EL PRESIDENTE EXPANSION (NEW)
The expansion to be used by 'Cuba'. An additional game board, more and different ship cards, laws, buildings, new character cards to be used with the other characters, and a whole new phenomenon: Cuba - the Arrival of the President!
