Raison d’Etat is a board game for 3-7 players. It is a standalone expansion for Coalitions, with its own distinct double-sided game board and components. In Raison d’État you take control of one of up to seven playable powers – Poland, Sweden, France, Spain, Austria, the Ottoman Empire, Britain and Russia – in two unique scenarios, engaging in an exciting area control game of shifting alliances and coalitions, of intense back-stabbing, diplomacy and bold military actions.
