Angola!

Angola! by Multi-Man Publishing (MMP), designed by Phil Kendall.
This mod is a port of the VASSAL module for Angola! Consequently, please be aware that the visual quality is not great. Nevertheless, it is perfectly playable.

This game is designed for 4 players, ideally.
The game is set up so that you can begin from Step 5 of setup. This is because Step 5 and after include random elements which you should do yourself to ensure you have a unique game.

Further description by MMP:
"Angola recreates a brief portion of the violent, decades-long Angolan civil war that began in the 1970s with the fall of a colonial power and dragged its bloody way into the 21st century thanks in part to cold war politics. Angola is a multi-player game in which players control the various Soviet- and US-backed factions that vied for control of Angola from 1975 to 1976. Angola features a number of innovative game systems that keep players guessing, create plenty of tension, and reward the right balance of boldness and caution.

The map is divided into areas, and units represent military formations and also special weapons, such as artillery, rockets, tanks, and airplanes. A unique command and activation system has players committing in secret to the order in which they will activate a limited number of their units for the turn. The players then take turns activating their units in the determined order. The result is like a tense game of poker, with players trying to analyze the map and out guess their enemies.

The game is finely balanced, and all players frequently feel as if they are simultaneously on the verge of victory or defeat thanks to an ingenious victory point system that rewards good play for both sides and allows players to absorb reversals and strike back with the right countermove."
