The British Way: Mach's auf die britische Art
The British Way immerses you in four British counterinsurgency campaigns spanning 1945 to 1960. Manage military operations across Malaya, Kenya, Palestine, and Cyprus using COIN mechanics tailored for two players. Fast-paced games of roughly 60 minutes, with an interconnected "End of Empire" campaign that weaves the four insurgencies into a single compelling historical narrative.

Description
The British Way: Mach's auf die britische Art is the first in a multi-pack COIN series and contains four independent wargames addressing historically linked insurgencies. Between 1945 and 1960, the British fought four major "emergencies," as they called their counterinsurgency campaigns, while managing their imperial withdrawal: communist insurgents in Malaya, militant nationalists in Kenya, and clandestine terrorist organizations in Palestine and Cyprus.
The four games adapt the basic COIN mechanisms to a two-player format, streamlining several phases to make the game faster. The British Way offers an accessible entry point to the COIN series for new players, while proposing to veterans four mechanically distinct games to explore and compare. It also includes an "End of Empire" campaign that connects the four insurgencies into a single narrative.
Design by Stephen Rangazas, development by Joe Dewhurst; COIN series design by Volko Ruhnke.
