Description

Coup is in the great tradition of the old-style two-player wargames, with hex-map movement. But it's a ``beer-and-pretzels'' game rather than a hard-core simulation. The emphasis is on taking and holding vital hexes like the Capitol and the Radio Station, rather than destroying enemy units.
