Worthington Games Celebrates First Bull Run’s 150th

Coming soon from Worthington Games is First Bull Run: Limited Edition 150th Anniversary and only 525 copies have been printed. The game includes ahard-mounted game board, laser etched blocks representing the Union and Confederate armies, cards, rules, limited edition certificate, die, and box.

This is the first in a limited series of 150th anniversary games on the American Civil War, designed by Richard Berg. If you order by February 15th you’ll still receive the preorder price: $50 (save $25). I’m a bit surprised by the timing of this since, in order to actually celebrate the 150th anniversary of the battle, the game would have needed to be released LAST year…

From Worthington:

July 21, 1861: In northern Va. two raw armies prepare to do battle in what each believes will be a short war. Spectators have gathered for the spectacle. Both sides are in for a shock as this will be the first major battle in a war that will last another 4 years and consume 600,000 lives.

In honor of the 150th anniversary of the battle, Worthington Games brings you, BULL RUN 150TH. Players will take control of either the Confederate and Union armies, using wooden blocks in blue and gray, on a mounted 22 x 17 inch map of the Manassas area. The game will come with a certificate stating that it is 1 of the 500 limited edition prints.

INCLUDED:

  • RULES
  • WOODEN BLOCKS
  • LABELS
  • DICE
  • MOUNTED GAME BOARD
  • BOX
