Caudillo
By James O'Grady released 2024-01-19
Caudillo was a 1992 wargame created by Richard Forsythe from a game system by Jason Davies. It was sold by mail order.
The two players are the opposing sides of the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), the Nationalists and the Republicans.
There is optional hidden movement.
The game starts with the Republicans deploying units. Control the cursor with
W E A D Z X
and S to select. Hollow cities are republican, solid are nationalist.
Then the Nationalists deploy units.
On each turn, the Nationalists go first, followed by the Republicans.
