About this game

This is a boardgame simulating a football match between teams of French and German Philosophers. The game is more or less what Americans would call soccer, leavened with enough indoor soccer and football to keep the existentialists angsty. The game is played with a print-out board, counters, and a standard poker deck. Each team consists of four philosophers; each philosopher corresponds to a suit of cards. To make philosophers kick or block the ball, you must play cards of their suit. IPG is available at: http://www.fecundity.com/pmagnus/grudgematch/
