Political Intrigue in Revolutionary Mexico
Profit from unrest. Manipulate politics. Decide the fate of Mexico.
Looking for a historical board game where you profit from revolution and manipulate regimes? In Pax Porfiriana, you play as a powerful hacendado during the final years of Porfirio Díaz’s dictatorship in Mexico. Build banks, exploit mines, and fund private militias, all while influencing a fragile political landscape teetering on collapse. Support rebels, fund bandits, or engineer reforms with the revolutionaries, to become the new president.
This dense, historically grounded board game uses card-driven engine-building tactics and regime-changing triggers to shape a volatile political landscape. Victory demands perfect timing,and the will to seize power when the old order collapses.
Why should you purchase Pax Porfiriana?
• Card-driven economic and political strategy: Influence Mexico’s fate through banks, armies, and alliances
• Regime change mechanics: Trigger coups, revolutions, or reform to seize power
• Historically rich and highly strategic: Grounded in real events of the Mexican Revolution
• Complex, competitive gameplay: Timing and foresight are key to claiming victory
