About the Game

In Grand Army of the Republic, Designer Signature Edition, the North and the South marshal their economies, produce forces, and command them on wide fronts. In the multi-player game, partners fight the war as a team. What players do as commanders will shape the destiny of the Blue and the Gray.

Several changes have been made to this game, incorporating concepts such as the promotion of Generals and game-enhancing variants from long-time enthusiasts, Volunteers Magazine, and the designer himself. A completely new Solitaire Version has been added, along with several charts to guide the single player through the experience.

The time is spring, 1861. The place is America, poised on the edge of armed conflict between the new Confederate States and supporters of the Union. Civil war will decide the issue.
