Oil, minerals and crops are produced and if sold via the Atlantic port of Matadi, players reap rich rewards. Players develop their own cities and hydroelectricity can be sold to these.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe game is built in four game layers with layer two introducing insurgents and peacekeepers, layer three the Government, and layer four strategic interventions by other countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe game is played on a map showing the eleven provinces of Democratic Republic of Congo and their \"capital\" towns. Transport routes are shown and include the major rivers and railways and export routes. In a turn a player may carry out one of five actions: build industry, place transport, develop city, produce resources, or sell resources. A neat and tidy economic game is made complicated by the presence of insurgents at game start, and these are suppressed and eliminated by use of players peacekeepers. This is a typical Ragnar Brothers dice combat system — simple but bringing tension and fun to proceedings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ragnar Brothers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":5408026113,"sku":"5408026113","price":72.16,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic2345066_lg.jpg?v=1578609032","url":"https:\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/products\/drcongo","provider":"booyakajuice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
