Versailles 1919 (engl.)

Beschreibung

On November 11th, 1918, an armistice ended the devastating conflict known as The War to End All Wars. To establish peace, Woodrow Wilson (United States), David Lloyd George (United Kingdom), and Vittorio Orlando (Italy) gathered in Paris under the leadership of French President Georges Clemenceau to draft what would become the Treaty of Versailles. After six months of intense debate and negotiation, the treaty was finally signed on June 28, 1919. Versailles 1919, designed by Mark Herman and Geoff Engelstein, lets you step into the shoes of one of the "Big Four" leaders, each with distinct national goals to pursue. As a delegate in the conference room, you use your influence to address the critical issues on the agenda. Meanwhile, other pressing matters and figures await their turn to present regional aspirations such as self-determination. Will you back Ho Chi Minh’s bid for Vietnamese independence from French rule? Support Prince Feisal’s effort to create a new nation in Mesopotamia? Aid Chaim Weizmann in establishing a Zionist state? Or collaborate with T.E. Lawrence and Atatürk to manage unrest in the Middle East and Anatolia? As France, your priority is to prevent future German aggression while working with Britain on reparations to cover war damages. The British seek reconciliation with Germany as a trading partner while safeguarding their empire against rising demands for self-rule. Italy aims for territorial gains from the former Austro-Hungarian Empire. Looming in the background is the threat of Bolshevism. President Wilson’s idealistic 14 Points inspire global expectations but ultimately result in disappointment as the US fails to join the League of Nations. Versailles 1919 introduces a unique card bidding system where you invest influence to resolve issues aligned with your agenda, all while maintaining domestic support. Balancing military demobilization with controlling regional unrest forms a challenging backdrop to the political negotiations. The player who shapes the treaty most effectively prevails in this struggle of wills and national interests. Immerse yourself in the tense diplomacy and complex decisions behind the Treaty of Versailles and experience the making of a flawed peace that shaped the world’s future.
