A variety of other mechanics, including area majority, push your luck, tug of war, technology tracks, and set collection.
Competition between players in different areas: national prestige, military power, naval dominance, colonial expansion, and key strategic areas.
International tensions that may culminate in the outbreak of the First World War.
A wide range of political agendas that will allow players to choose among different paths to victory.
A rich Event deck that poses additional challenges to players, ranging from international conflicts to political mishaps at home.
The influence of non-player powers such as Russia, China, Holland, Belgium, Spain, and Portugal.
The full game is playable in under four hours, once players are reasonably familiar with the rules.
