"Junta"
Manufacturer:  West End Games
Number of Players:  2 to 7
Complexity:  Very High
Average Time:  2 - 3H
Synopsis:  A terrific, tongue-in-cheek game of political negotiation and backstabbing. Players represent opposing factions in a Banana Republic fraught with turmoil. Everyone's goal is to amass the most money. This could mean running for El Presidente, or just supporting him against the other player's coup attempts in exchange for some political favors. Of course, the most successful "Junta" player will be the one that can make friends with his enemies and turn on his friends when the financial opportunity is ripe! This is an absolutely hilarious game! Be forewarned, however, you must have some pretty thick skin to play, because anything goes in this game. Highly recommended, but don't play it with your family! Best with 7 players.
