About the game
Get ready for total immersion in Dominate & Delegate, a game that throws you headfirst into a legacy campaign full of twists, inspired by real-time strategy classics like Command & Conquer. Here, you and a friend will choose a side and dive into a deep story, where each player has their own secret information and objectives. You'll advance your teams, fight epic battles, and make decisions that shape the campaign's destiny, with multiple paths and possible endings awaiting you. But the fun doesn't stop there! Want more action? The Skirmish mode lets you team up with up to 4 players, whether it's an all-out free-for-all or team vs. team. With varied scenarios, modular maps, and different victory conditions, each match promises to be unique. The game demands sharp strategy, area control, and a good dose of bluffing, as the "fog of war" hides your production and what you're planning. You'll build bases, move units, and try to conquer the world, all while keeping your plans secret. Dominate & Delegate isn't just a board game; it's an intense narrative experience that evolves with each play, featuring RPG elements and decisions that truly matter. If you enjoy games that draw you into a story, with modern warfare mechanics and a touch of mystery, this one's for you!
