I am using this game for my CIVIL WAR game design, so check it out. Based on the Campaign for California 1846-47 with hypothetical but quite possible added events. This ZIP lock game is a card ENHANCED, space to space, with a large map and few game counters (BIG at 20mm). It has Leaders, navies, Native Americans, immigrants, Sutter, Mormons, Vaqueros, artillery, and much more. VERY WELL researched. The rules are not difficult but there are optional rules to add to play. Produced in Shanghai & Vicksburg. BFR errata 1.1. Page numbers are missing. I have NO idea how that happened – lost in translation. Farallon Islands, Sandwich Island & North Central Pacific need to be treated as REGIONS as per 4.2. FUN game - not too long to play either. A recent comment, “Bear Flag arrived Monday on schedule.  It is beautiful with top-notch components.  The map is so nice it could be mounted on a wall.  Thanks!” FREE shipping in USA.
