Europe in Turmoil II: The Interbellum Years 1920-1939

Two factions compete for influence across Europe during the Interbellum, using the TS play system. One side represents the Moderate Left (socialists and liberals) and the other the Moderate Right (conservatives and nationalists). Players use card-driven actions to place influence, run political support checks, and contest six regional score areas plus the Soviet Union through concurrent rearmament races. An extremist marker and cards featuring extreme figures enable short-term gains at the cost of growing radicalization, which affects long-term victory prospects. Play unfolds over three periods—the Roaring Twenties, the Great Depression, and the Appeasement era—while regions score for control and dominance.
