This game is a strategy/formation/luck game, it is about the French Revolution with one side being the revolutionists trying to take over the revolution & then beheading the king & queen. & the other side the outnumbered but stronger in manpower royalists, trying to stop the revolutionists. Which makes it a quality vs quantity game. players may use chess pieces or may custom design their own peons. The game may take from half-an-hour to, a very long time, but not infinite, cause players will eventually run out of peons. - BoardGameGeek
