An Attrition of Souls - Strategic Wargame
An Attrition of Souls is a light and fast-paced strategic-level wargame covering World War I, designed with a high degree of replayability – no two games are ever alike. This luxurious version with a raised game board and large game tokens offers a unique tile placement system to simulate the events of World War I.
Each turn, you randomly draw tiles from a bag based on your industrial points and use them to your best advantage. Game strategy is crucial due to the ruthless combat system that captures the terrible attrition of this conflict; the dice offer no bloodless victories or mercy for either side. Surrounded by enemies on all sides, the Central Powers must strike aggressively at the beginning of the war.

The Central Powers player must decide whether to throw the bulk of their forces across the Belgian border or take an ahistorical path east to crush the Russian bear. Maintaining momentum is crucial, as the war must be fought on enemy territory to have a chance of victory. Initially outmatched and outclassed by the German army, the Entente player must choose where to hold the line and where to cede territory. The vast hinterlands of the Russian Empire offer some defense in depth, but Russia, vulnerable to attacks from the Germans, Austrians, and Turks, has the potential for sudden collapse.
New allies will join your cause during the conflict, but if they declare war too early, before fully prepared, they may become nothing more than additional land for your opponent to devour. An Attrition of Souls also offers great variability in the length of the war. Some games end with decisive victories in 1915, while others drag on into brutal stalemates lasting until the end of 1918. No two games are ever alike.
To maximize your gaming experience, it is recommended to store the game in a dry and safe place when not in use. Gather with friends and family to create unforgettable moments together. An Attrition of Souls is not just a game, but a historical experience that challenges your strategic thinking and decision-making.
