What is Pax Porfiriana
Pax Porfiriana – Latin for "The Porfirian Peace" – refers to the 33-year reign of dictator Porfirio Díaz, who ruled Mexico with an iron hand until toppled by the 1910 Revolution.
As a rich businessman (Hacendado) in the turbulent pre-revolutionary borderlands of the U.S. and Mexico, players compete to build business empires of ranches, mines, rails, troops, and banks while subverting opponents with bandidos, Native Americans, and lawsuits. Each turn goes as follows:
1. Action Phase: Perform three actions, such as play new cards, get new cards from the market, speculate on cards in the market, buy land, or redeploy troops.
2. Discard Headlines: Remove any Headlines (i.e. cards with the Bull-Bear icon) that have reached the leftmost position in the Market.

Juego de cartas ambientado en la revolución mexicana. El objetivo es conseguir ser nombrado sucesor de Porfirio Diaz.. aprovechando un evento de derrocamiento y siendo el que más influencia tiene en el estado del régimen actual. Es muy interesante.
gran juego con multiples estrategias, el arte es genial, super temático.Ojalá lo pueda conseguir.
It is the best!!
A falta de probarlo más, es un gran juego con buenas ideas mecánicas y diseño de juego, que no de grafismo/funcionalidad xD aunque al final te acostumbras a leer "Eklundiano" jejeje Y con muchísima interacción y mucho puteo del grande xD Lo del grito: ¡QUE VIVA MEXICO, CABRONES! (Lo de cabrones, tras jugar se confirma, tal cual jajaja) Cuidado que es un pierde amigos de libro XD
