Cuba Libre 4th Printing (engl.) is a strategy game for 1 to 4 players aged 14+ with a playing time of 180 minutes. Players experience the Cuban Revolution through the COIN system, managing factions like Castro’s 26 July Movement, Batista’s Government, and the Syndicate. The game features a deck of 48 events that bring 1950s Cuba to life with political and strategic challenges.

Batista’s Government must maintain steam to counter the twin insurgency, while managing two benefactors: its fragile US Alliance and its corrupting Syndicate skim. And in the midst of the turmoil, Meyer Lansky and his Syndicate bosses will jockey to keep their Cuban gangster paradise alive.

COIN Series, Volume II

Cuba Libre will be easy to learn for Andean Abyss players—both volumes share the same innovative COIN system.
