War, or American Generals and their Battles

Description

This set-collection card game features American generals from the Revolutionary, 1812, Mexican and Civil wars, each with cards representing three of their battles with dates and a short description.

The game is unusual in that it has a deck of 60 cards: one set of three (George Washington), 14 sets of four, and a single "Officer" card with the number 16. The rules say this card effectively may be used once, as a wild card, to complete any book. This book will normally count only for the same single point as any other book, but in the event of a tie, the book with the officer counts for 16 points!

Games are played over multiple hands, with the winner being the once to get the most total points for completed books, so this card can make a huge difference.
