Overview

Join Fadhma N'Soumer in her fight against the invading French armies in the Kabylie region of Algeria in 1857. You will join forces with up to 3 other players in the co-operative board game The Red Burnoose: Algeria 1857 to use deck-building and area-control elements to survive as the French advance on your villages. The French are run as an automa deck for 1 to 4 players to defeat. Victory is achieved by outlasting the automa. Players control pieces on the board that they can strategically move between villages to help stop the French advance. Players use the cards in their hand and those they buy from the shared market to acquire new pieces for the board and to manipulate the board state. —description from the publisher
