Hidden Strike - American Revolution

Hidden Strike: American Revolution recreates the struggle between the American colonists and the British forces during the War of Independence. Each side tries to win the war by controlling a majority of regions.

Confronted by overwhelming forces, the colonists will need strategy to defeat the larger British army and navy to gain their Independence. This is a card driven game, where players manage their hand of cards, usually playing just one card a turn to allow them to move tokens representing military forces across the board into key spaces at key times.

The game can be played in five different modes:

Solitaire:

This mode is a good starting point if you are trying to learn the game by yourself after reading through the general rules. You play as the American side while your opponent is a British BOT.

Basic mode: Select Alexander Hamilton for your Founding Father Ability.

Founding Father Ability: After winning a region you may immediately play another card from your hand, then draw back as usual.

Hardcore mode: Confront the British forces without the help of a Founding Father.

Versus:

A fierce head-to-head contest in which one player pitches the British forces against the other player’s American troops. A player who runs out of cards before all regions are resolved automatically loses the game.

Co-Op

In the cooperative mode all players must work together to defeat a strong British BOT.

Traitor Mode:

In the Traitor Mode 3-5 American players work together to defeat a strong British BOT and among the American players is a secret Traitor.

The loyalty deck is used to determine a traitor. A player who draws the traitor card acts as the traitor by attempting to subvert the plans of the other American players – as overtly or covertly as they wishes. The traitor's goal is to end the game with a British victory.

Mastermind:

Use the unique "Sons of Liberty" cards in your hand to overthrow the monarchy!

All Sons of Liberty share the following abilities: 1. When deploying a Scout look at the British player’s hand. You may select one of the cards and place it at the bottom of the British draw deck. The British player may not draw up until the end of her next turn. 2. When resolving a region add one Loyal card to the Loyalty deck.
