Europa Universalis is a monster wargame of diplomacy, territorial expansion, trade, military technology, economic development, and war where you play the part of kings as you relive 300 years of world history (1492-1792). The grand campaign game can keep 6 players occupied for a long, long time, but one of the beauties of this wargame is that you can play a shorter campaign game or a mini campaign that requires fewer player and less space and time and you can even re-fight one of 20 battle scenarios, or play a solitaire scenario.

The game includes:
  • 2 color maps (Europe & Rest of the World), 80cm x 60cm each
  • 1412 counters (armies, fleets, leaders, detachments, colonies, trading posts, etc) - Countersheets #1 to #6
  • 1 rulebook (72 pages)
