Guns & Steel: A Civilization Card Game

About this board game

Guns & Steel is a civilization card game for 2–4 players, with a play time of about 60 minutes. Across the ages, players compete to build the greatest empire in the world.

Technology is a double-edged sword. Civilization brings comfort and faster production, yet it can also create increasingly destructive methods of warfare. Every turn presents challenging decisions as you determine how your empire will develop.

Will you focus on civil developments to speed production, or build powerful armies capable of laying waste to your rivals? You can also pursue wonders that leave a permanent heritage for mankind—or seize those achievements from opponents you consider unworthy.

• Compete throughout the ages as you develop your empire.
• Choose between civil progress and military strength.
• Build wonders or attempt to take them from your opponents.
• Use hand building and a distinctive card-flipping mechanism.

The combination of hand building and card flipping gives Guns & Steel its distinct character. These mechanisms support a compact strategy experience in which technological progress and destruction remain closely connected.

As nations rise and fall, your choices determine whether your empire advances through production, conquers through force, or leaves a lasting legacy through its wonders. Designed to deliver a tightly packed contest in roughly an hour, the game challenges you to balance development, ambition, and survival throughout history.
