Overview
Battle of Seattle is a Tactical level Protesters-against-Police board-wargame inspired by the anti-WTO unrest during their 1999 meeting in Seattle. The protesters range from anarchists to organized labor, while the civil authorities range from the Seattle P.D. to the National Guard. There's all the regular grasping for real estate and struggle for power, but you also have to deal with the media: too much looting or hippie-bashing can cause too much unwanted exposure. The game was published in issue #336 of Strategist (March 2000) and is now available to download.
