The creators hope to capitalise on war fatigue. Rules of the game: The game is for two to six players. All players begin with fledgling empires on a world map which they expand through the acquisition of land, oil and cities. At any time players can abandon the “pursuit of liberty and oil” in favour of becoming a terror state - or they are designated a terror state by a random “Axis of Evil” spinner. Empires can also train their own terrorists to target rival empires, although these groups often turn on you later in the game. Terrorists can use special cards such as “suicide bomber”, “plane hijack” and “WMDs” to advance themselves.
