1984
Based on Nineteen Eighty-Four: A Novel, often published as 1984, is a dystopian novel by English novelist George Orwell. It was published in June 1949 by Secker & Warburg as Orwell's ninth and final book completed in his lifetime. The story was mostly written at Barnhill, a farmhouse on the Scottish island of Jura, at times while Orwell suffered from severe tuberculosis. Thematically, Nineteen Eighty-Four centres on the consequences of government over-reach, totalitarianism, mass surveillance, and repressive regimentation of all persons and behaviours within society.
SPECIAL GAMEPLAY NOTE: Applies to Assassin and Mercenary games Only (not Standard games). If a player holds ONLY Superstate territories, with one troop each at beginning of turn, those territories will NOT decay to neutral, the player will NOT be eliminated, and the player will be able to deploy and attack.
Example: Player B holds 2 territories in Eurasia Superstate. Those territories are reduced to 1 troop each.
Standard Game result: When Player B begins next turn, the two territories become neutral. Player B is eliminated. No reserve cards are awarded to any player.
Assassin/Merc Game result: When Player B begins next turn, the two territories remain occupied by one troop. Player B may deploy on those territories, and play turn as normal. Though the territories were occupied by just one troop in a Superstate, they did not decay to neutral. Thus Player B is not eliminated in this scenario.
