About the game
Recreate the epic, existential drama of an entire continent in Statecraft's first Deluxe Expansion, The Supranational Union. Play in teams or on your own as either the Federalists or the Separatists, each struggling for dominance over the 12 member states and ultimately for control of the Federal Council, and the soul of the continent. The 13 scenarios and whole range of supplementary cards expand the core Statecraft system to an epic 20-hour campaign, playable as a series of specialised Statecraft scenarios. Will you fight for unity or independence?
