Concorde Night
- Years
- 1934 to 1936
You play Simone
Simone works the switchboard at the Chamber of Deputies. She hears every call: in February 1934, when the extremist Leagues march on parliament, and two summers later, when the factories fill with singing strikers.
Mission 1: 6 February 1934
The Bridge
- Turns
- 8 turns, an hour each
The Leagues are marching on the Chamber across the Concorde bridge. From the switchboard Simone can call the mobile guards to the bridge or relay a warning. She can also make a deal with the Leagues, which stops them at once and costs the Republic dearly.
Objective
Keep the pressure on the bridge under 10 until the night is over
How it can end
- Simone made a deal with the Leagues.
- The Leagues were stopped at the bridge.
- The Leagues reached the Chamber.
Mission 2: 1 June 1936
The Summer of Strikes
- Turns
- 10 turns, a day each
The factory occupations are spreading from Javel. Carry the unions' terms to Grenelle and the employers' to Chaillot, calm the occupations, and sign the agreement at the Hôtel Matignon before the tension boils over.
Objective
Sign the agreement, for the workers or for the government, before the tension reaches 10
How it can end
- The agreement was signed on the workers' terms.
- The agreement was signed on the government's terms.
- The occupations turned violent before anyone signed.
