The year is 1756. Frederick the Great faces the grim fact that half of Europe has formed an alliance. He is deeply distressed: it seems their goal is to annihilate Prussia.
Therefore, he makes a pre-emptive strike against Saxony, which surrenders weeks later. But this is only the first chapter of what would become known as the Seven Years' War! Prussia is completely surrounded by its enemies, the greatest continental powers in Europe. England and Hanover are her only allies. For Prussia, the situation is easy to summarize: To be or not to be.
Soon, the Prussian house is ablaze. France has conquered northern Germany. Austria has invaded Silesia. Russian hordes cross the Oder River and Berlin is only five days' march away!
Frederick is relentless. He rushes desperately from crisis to crisis within his strategic triangle, managing to control one enemy only for another to exploit his absence to advance. After six long years of fighting, Prussia seems doomed to fall...
Frederick is saved by a miracle. The Russian Empress Elisabeth dies, and her successor has an almost infinite admiration for Frederick and immediately makes peace. Sweden soon agrees, and a year later, a bankrupt France does the same. Prussia is saved.
In the game FRIEDRICH for 3 or 4 players: All against one. But only one will reign supreme. On a map of Old Europe, players maneuver their generals from city to city. Frederick must retain a portion of each Prussian province, while the attacking powers relentlessly pursue their goals. The clever use of tactical cards is crucial for victory.
