Description Edit | History

This Avalon Hill game is a vehicle for instructing students (there is a classroom section in the rules) on why Marxism is superior. The Workers move around a board while trying to survive against the Capitalist who control everything. As the Workers unite they take power from the Capitalist players but if they do not suceed in uniting the Capitalist will win.

The Marxist politics are very up front in this game in presentation and in the suggested reading in the rules. A surprising publication from a war game company
