1936: Right-wing Army Generals have rebelled against the Spanish Republic, aided by Hitler's Germany and Mussolini's Italy!
To save Spain, three factions - Anarchists, Communists, and Moderates - must put aside their differences and forge an anti-fascist alliance.
But can you trust your allies when your agendas are directly opposed?
Land and Freedom: The Spanish Revolution and Civil War is a card-driven tug-of-war game in which players are immersed in the dilemma of balancing this fragile alliance against their own political and revolutionary ideals. You must repel the Fascist attack on the 4 Fronts, while gaining the Initiative through tableau-building, deck management, and powerful Medallions.
If the war is won, the player with the most Glory will win the game and determine the future of Spain. If the war against the Fascists is lost... 40 years of dictatorship await, with death, imprisonment, or exile are the only choices remaining.

"Land and Freedom is a one-to-three-player semi-cooperative game where three factions (Communists, Anarchists, and Moderates) must work together in an uneasy alliance against Franco’s fascist forces in the Spanish Civil War. It’s a card-driven game that uses an incredibly clever chit-pull system (where bits are pulled blindly from a bag) to generate tension.
While set during the Spanish Civil War, this game does a fantastic job of bridging wargame and Euro sensibilities. As a gamer who typically doesn’t like semi-cooperative games, Land and Freedom does something very, very special in creating an organic, thematic structure for semi-cooperative play."
