The country is torn apart by civil wars. The corrupted and declining power of the Qing Dynasty is no longer able to guarantee authority. The occupation measures imposed by Western nations irritate the populations and deplete the state finances. Throughout the country, rebel factions rise up, many led by charismatic leaders. Popular or nationalist, promoting ethnic and even religious demands, the rebellions are supported by triads and local sects and seek to bring down the imperial regime, as well as to free China from the foreign powers’ domination.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is also a time for utopias, and Nanking is renamed by its new masters the Heavenly City, capital of the Heavenly Kingdom of Great Peace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Up to 1865, China sinks deeper into chaos and becomes the theater of terrible struggles: Heroic battles, political manoeuvers and diplomatic intrigues plague the country. During a quarter of century, the destiny of all China is at stake…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Nanking&lt;/em&gt; is a history-inspired strategy game. Its majority-based and bidding system captures the spirit of and pays homage to a dramatic period of Chinese history. It allows players to relive the struggle of rebel factions against an alliance formed by imperial clans and Western nations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For 2 to 4 players, each game of &lt;em&gt;Nanking&lt;/em&gt; offers a wide range of strategies, since you take the reins of three rival factions, each belonging to a different camp. Moreover, some factions are secretly distributed and act from the shadows. Your opponents can manoeuvre your own forces and launch battles or plots at the most inconvenient moment. Numerous twists of fate may reverse your situation!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A game of &lt;em&gt;Nanking&lt;/em&gt; lasts from 60 to 90 minutes, and lets you relive the glorious deeds of arms and the dark conspiracies that have shaped the face of mid-nineteenth century China.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Raise your armies and send out your spies: You can change the course of history. Will you lead your factions to victory?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4965777676084929915-1230376637328554544?l=playfullovebirds.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://playfullovebirds.blogspot.com/feeds/1230376637328554544/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4965777676084929915&amp;postID=1230376637328554544&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4965777676084929915/posts/default/1230376637328554544'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4965777676084929915/posts/default/1230376637328554544'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://playfullovebirds.blogspot.com/2008/07/game-background.html' title='Game background'/><author><name>Ted Lapinus + Phoenixuela</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04806686932469633451</uri><email>playful_lovebirds@yahoo.ca</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='13988934922928964165'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965777676084929915.post-7660105902754897393</id><published>2008-07-11T16:04:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-07-11T17:31:25.615-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fr - Descriptif du jeu'/><title type='text'>Thème du jeu</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;Chine, 1850. Le pays est déchiré par les guerres civiles. Le pouvoir déclinant et corrompu de la dynastie impériale des Qing ne suffit plus à maintenir l’autorité, et l’occupation des puissances étrangères, mal acceptée des populations, saigne le trésor. De toute part se soulèvent des factions rebelles, souvent emmenées par des chefs charismatiques. Paysannes ou nationalistes, embrassant des revendications ethniques voire religieuses, elles sont parfois soutenues par les triades et les sectes locales, et visent à renverser le pouvoir central et à libérer le territoire du joug des puissances étrangères.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;C’est aussi l’époque des utopies, et Nankin deviendra pour un temps la capitale céleste du Royaume de la Grande Paix.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jusqu’en 1865, le pays est en proie au chaos et devient le théâtre de terribles affrontements : batailles héroïques, manœuvres politiques et intrigues diplomatiques meurtrissent le pays. Pendant ce quart de siècle riche en rebondissements, c’est tout l’avenir de la Chine qui se joue…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Nankin&lt;/em&gt; est un jeu de stratégie d’inspiration historique. Ce jeu d’enchères et de majorité s’appuie sur une vision romancée d’une période haletante et méconnue de l’histoire chinoise, et met en scène la lutte des factions rebelles contre l’alliance des clans impériaux et des puissances étrangères.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jouable de deux à quatre joueurs, chaque partie de &lt;em&gt;Nankin&lt;/em&gt; vous plongera dans une expérience ludique renouvelée, puisque vous ne prendrez pas en main la destinée d’un seul camp, mais de trois factions rivales à la fois : une faction rebelle, un clan impérial et une puissance étrangère. Autre originalité, certaines factions sont distribuées secrètement et agissent dans l’ombre. Qui plus est, vos adversaires peuvent manoeuvrer vos propres forces et déclencher des batailles et des complots au moment le plus inopportun. Attendez-vous à de nombreux retournements de fortune !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Une partie de &lt;em&gt;Nankin&lt;/em&gt; dure entre une heure et une heure et demie, et vous permettra de revivre les glorieux faits d’armes et les sombres conspirations qui ont façonné le visage de la Chine du XIXième siècle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Levez vos armées et dépêchez vos espions : vous pouvez changer le cours de l’histoire. Saurez-vous mener vos factions à la victoire ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4965777676084929915-7660105902754897393?l=playfullovebirds.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://playfullovebirds.blogspot.com/feeds/7660105902754897393/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4965777676084929915&amp;postID=7660105902754897393&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4965777676084929915/posts/default/7660105902754897393'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4965777676084929915/posts/default/7660105902754897393'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://playfullovebirds.blogspot.com/2008/07/thme-du-jeu.html' title='Thème du jeu'/><author><name>Ted Lapinus + Phoenixuela</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04806686932469633451</uri><email>playful_lovebirds@yahoo.ca</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='13988934922928964165'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965777676084929915.post-2760806136965605585</id><published>2008-07-11T16:03:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2009-01-23T16:33:41.259-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='En - Short description'/><title type='text'>Game mechanics</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Type of game&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;History-inspired strategy game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mechanics&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Secret goals, placement of double-sided disks involving two players, triangular determination of majority.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Main originality of the game&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Concept of &lt;em&gt;warlord&lt;/em&gt;, a role that the players can get by bidding. When a battle or a plot is triggered, the &lt;em&gt;warlord&lt;/em&gt; decides which province it is going to take place on, and can bend the outcome to his advantage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Number of players&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2, 3 or 4&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Duration of a game&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;60 to 90 mn&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Principles of the game&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Nanking&lt;/em&gt; centers on a dramatic period of Chinese history, at the heart of the conflicts that tore China apart from 1850 to 1865, and pitted rebel factions against an alliance formed by imperial clans and Western nations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each province that rises up might allow a faction to advance its flag by 1 to 3 spaces. To earn victory points, players may deploy troops, take control of buildings, or corrupt powerful characters who can support them during plots and battles. At the end of the game, each player adds up the victory points of all his factions. The player with the most victory points wins the game. As some factions are secretly manipulated, numerous twists of fate may spice the game up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ‘London Market’ expansion allows players to take in account the financial stakes that prevailed as part of the influence of the Western nations on China in the mid-nineteenth century.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4965777676084929915-2760806136965605585?l=playfullovebirds.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://playfullovebirds.blogspot.com/feeds/2760806136965605585/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4965777676084929915&amp;postID=2760806136965605585&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4965777676084929915/posts/default/2760806136965605585'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4965777676084929915/posts/default/2760806136965605585'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://playfullovebirds.blogspot.com/2008/07/game-elements.html' title='Game mechanics'/><author><name>Ted Lapinus + Phoenixuela</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04806686932469633451</uri><email>playful_lovebirds@yahoo.ca</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='13988934922928964165'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965777676084929915.post-5564703470442232651</id><published>2008-07-11T16:02:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-07-11T17:30:10.831-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fr - Descriptif du jeu'/><title type='text'>Mécanismes du jeu</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Type de jeu&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;Jeu de stratégie d’inspiration historique.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mécanismes&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;Objectifs secrets, pose de palets à deux faces impliquant deux joueurs, calculs de majorité triangulaires.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Principale originalité du jeu&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;Notion de &lt;em&gt;stratège&lt;/em&gt;, rôle que les joueurs peuvent obtenir par enchères pour décider du lieu où va se dérouler une bataille ou un complot juste avant son déclenchement, et qui permet d’en influencer l’issue.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nombre de joueurs&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;2, 3 ou 4&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Durée d’une partie&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;1h00 à 1h30&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Principes du jeu&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Nankin&lt;/em&gt; porte sur une période passionnante de l’histoire chinoise, au cœur des conflits qui ont déchiré la Chine de 1850 à 1865, et des luttes de pouvoir qui ont opposé les factions rebelles à l’alliance des clans impériaux et des puissances étrangères.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chaque province qui se soulève permet d’avancer un drapeau de faction de 1 à 3 cases. Pour gagner ces points de victoire, les joueurs déploient des troupes, prennent le contrôle des bâtiments de la ville, et corrompent des personnages influents qui pourront les appuyer lors de complots et de batailles. A la fin du jeu, chaque joueur additionne les points de victoire qu’il a remportés pour l’ensemble de ses factions. C’est le joueur qui totalise le plus de points qui est le vainqueur.
