Seven Years is the third installment in the series of games dedicated to the conflicts of the 18th century. It traces the events that involved the European powers in what Churchill called the First World War, which, in the game, takes place across three of the five scenarios: Europe, North America, and the Caribbean. The nations involved are Prussia and Great Britain on one side and France and Austria on the other. Allies of one or the other are Russia, Sweden, the Empire, Saxony, Spain, Portugal, the Electorates of Hanover and Hesse-Kassel. The Events table traces the main events of the war, determines the game turns, and offers useful military and economic advantages to the states. It is important to manage the costs of military expeditions and supply lines, both land and sea, and to safeguard one's soldiers to avoid finding oneself with reduced contingents during the conflict. Unforeseen events represented by the Event markers affect the outcome of battles and the campaign. The war isn't just being fought on land: France and Great Britain are vying for dominance of the seas. The game's mechanics are profoundly different from those of other strategic wargames, simulating the real-life challenges faced during military expeditions, both economically and logisticalally. The battle mechanics have been revisited, making them more streamlined and quicker. It's designed for one or two players aged 14 and up. The average game length in campaign mode is several hours, while in scenario mode it lasts from half an hour to an hour. The base game contains all the necessary materials and is available as a Print and Play product on Wargame Vault and on this page for €17.00. For members of the Ludo Storia Association, the cost is €1, but only when purchasing it from my website. Any future expansions or modifications to the game will be sent free of charge to purchasers.
