Volume V in GMT’s COIN Series takes you back to the struggle of the American Patriots against their parent British government. Liberty or Death: The American Insurrection features the same card-assisted counterinsurgency game system as GMT's Andean Abyss, Cuba Libre, A Distant Plain, Fire in the Lake, and Gallic War, with a set of twists that take the COIN Series to the 18th Century, including:

• Brilliant Strokes that trump initiative (Led by leaders like Washington, Rochambeau, Clinton and Joseph Brant) 
• Irregular troops (Patriot Militia and Indian War Parties) 
• Regular troops (British and French Regulars and Patriot Continentals)  for battles and skirmishes with line infantry 
• Rabble-rousing, Skirmishing, Tories, variable French entry, and Indian Raids
• Variable impact of naval commitments between the British and French 
• French blockades to confound British plans
• French financing options to feed the Patriot’s war effort
• A large deck of 110 + cards for great play variety 
• Short, medium, and long-length scenarios with period-event or random options. 

It will be necessary “…to gain the hearts and subdue the minds of America.”  - British General Henry Clinton, In his Campaign Narrative of 1776.

“It’s easier to crush evils in their infancy than when grown to maturity.” - British General Thomas Gage, March 28, 1775.

"It is evident the enemy mean to … oblige us to fight them on their own terms or surrender at discretion, or by a Brilliant Stroke endeavor to cut this army in pieces…”   - George Washington in a letter to John Hancock, President of the Congress 1776.
