This game puts you in the driver's seat of the British\/Russian alliance or the Ottoman Empire during World War One. Gallipoli, holy war, mutiny, and the Russian Revolution await. Walk in the shoes of men such as Churchill, Lawrence of Arabia, Enver, and Falkenhayn.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe action stretches from India to the Balkans, from the Black Sea to Suez. Can the Germans inspire a Persian uprising or forge an alliance with Afghanistan? Can the Russians capture a warm water port? Can the British guard the oil that fuels the Royal Navy? Can the Turks capture the Suez Canal and spark a revolt in Egypt?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Pursuit of Glory, your hand of 7 cards presents you with an array of strategic and operational opportunities. You must decide whether to use each card for its historic event, command points, or resources. You must then commit your forces to a variety of objectives: the Turkish-Russian frontier in Caucasia, the violation of neutral Persia, oil-rich Mesopotamia, the Suez Canal, the Balkans and its vital railroads. You must judge when it is right to invade Serbia or launch a new naval invasion (perhaps on the inset map representing Gallipoli).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the British, you must hold on while your Russian allies break through the Turkish lines in Caucasia and you bring your forces to bear through invasion and a gradual build-up of imperial might. As the Turks, your objective is to gain complete victory early, uniting your strength with Germany and crippling the British Empire in Egypt and India or to persevere.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(from GMT website)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePursuit of Glory is a stand alone sequel to Paths of Glory, a card-driven strategy game covering the first World War. Unlike the original game, which focused on the European theater of World War I, Pursuit of Glory focuses entirely on the Great War in the Middle East. Pursuit of Glory uses the same card-driven mechanics and point-to-point of the first game, but with some rules changes and modifications to better simulate the conditions of the war in the Middle East.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt was developed by Brad and Brian Stock with the permission of Ted Raicer, the designer of the original Paths of Glory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(BGG description)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGame Features\u003cbr\u003eTIME SCALE Approx. 1 year per hand of cards\u003cbr\u003eMAP SCALE Point-to-Point\u003cbr\u003eNUMBER OF PLAYERS One or Two\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDESIGNER: Brad Stock \u0026amp; Brian Stock\u003cbr\u003eDEVELOPER: Tony Curtis \u0026amp; Neil Randall\u003cbr\u003eMAP, CARD, \u0026amp; COUNTER ART: Mark Simonitch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"GMT Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39566851178547,"sku":"2313","price":44.65,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/files\/834.jpg?v=1687224720","url":"https:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/products\/pursuit-of-glory","provider":"vaibhavhospital","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
