World War 3: The Board Game

This is a turn-based strategic world domination game with economic/industrial, resource and military planning components. It is currently a proposed Kickstarter project. There are three main layers to WW3. The first is industrial/economic production. Control the centers of industry, and you earn their production points. However, such control can be gained either through economic investment OR military adventurism. To invade or to invest, that is the question! The second layer is fuel and resource production. Fuel helps your armies move faster, and your fleets to move MUCH faster. But use up all your fuel on movement, and you may not have much left over for battle. Remember that an army fighting without fuel will be struggling for its very survival. The final layer to game play is, of course, the military dimension. The basic version of the game will have two types of military units: armies and fleets. Unlike in Risk, where ridiculous numbers of armies start crowding the board very quickly, WW3 forces you to make tough choices with limited military forces. The loss of just one critical army at a key moment could prove lethal; every strategic choice in this game is critical.
