In a dystopian future, four Megapowers vie for global domination. These Megapowers are deeply involved in international affairs, seeking to outmaneuver their rivals in power and prestige while managing internal tensions. A new arms race is on the horizon...

Defcon is an entry-level competitive wargame for 2 to 4 players. Each player takes control of one of the Megapowers, aiming to accumulate the most consensus by the end of the fifth round. Consensus is determined by combining the military index (which reflects territories controlled) and the reputation index.

Each round is divided into five phases, with all players completing each phase in initiative order before moving to the next. Success in Defcon hinges on finding the right balance between military might and public opinion. The player who masters this balance will emerge victorious.
