Angola*

Angola provides a glimpse into the violent decades of the Angolan Civil War, beginning in the 1970s with the overthrow of colonial power and influenced by Cold War politics. Players control different factions supported by the Soviets and the USA, competing for control from 1975 to 1976. The game features a unique command and activation system, allowing players to secretly order their limited units, creating a tense atmosphere similar to a poker game. With a well-balanced victory point system, players often find themselves on the brink of victory or defeat, encouraging strategic play.
