Zrady zvon: Mnichovská krize 1938 (CZ) - board game

Product detailed description

A fast-paced historical strategy game for 1–2 players based on the Final Crisis system!

"The bell of treason is tolling..."

Set during the fateful autumn of 1938, Zrady zvon: Mnichovská krize 1938 puts players right in the middle of the political and military turmoil surrounding the Munich Crisis. Designed by Czech author Petr Mojžíš, the game lets you decide whether Czechoslovakia will stand firm against Nazi Germany's territorial demands or capitulate to avoid bloodshed.

How to play?

Two players take on opposing viewpoints: Defense (pushing for military resistance) and Concession (advocating for ceding the Sudetenland). Over three intense rounds, players play strategy cards to sway the Czechoslovak army, political leadership, public sentiment, and major foreign powers. As German paramilitary actions along the border trigger military mobilization, the final round centers on whether Defense can stop Concession from driving President Beneš to accept the historic Munich Agreement.
