Buy Wars Across the World Franche-Comté 1636 PC key

Wars Across the World Franche-Comté 1636 is a strategy scenario set during the Ten Years’ War, part of the Thirty Years’ War. Across 24 turns, each representing two months from Spring 1636 to Winter 1644, you command either Franche-Comté or the Kingdom of France and its Saxe-Weimar allies.

The conflict

As Franche-Comté, under the Spanish Monarchy, you defend strategic places and try to repel French and Weimarian assaults with limited forces. Your determination and knowledge of the land can help your troops win. Later in the game, Franche-Comté can also achieve victory through diplomacy by securing a peace treaty.

As the Kingdom of France, you must prevent that outcome and defeat your opponent as quickly as possible. France has greater strength and can overwhelm the enemy and besiege many cities, but events such as the death of an illustrious character may lead to a peace treaty and an opposing victory.

Events and play

Event cards create varied diplomatic, political and military situations, giving the scenario replay value. The estimated playtime is two hours. Neither side is favoured, and Franche-Comté is the harder side to play.
