I commend you for writing this rpg. This is a tragic event in Spain's history, very sadly, one of many during the Spanish Civil War. La Desbanda is deeply personal to me as my great Aunt Salvadora survived this journey as a child. Her mother accompanying her on the road to Almeria with her baby sister, Victoria. Many decades after the event Dora could still vividly recall and describe to me the horror of those desperate days and the terror of being attacked by planes. Thank you for creating a game that challenges us to explore such a heart-rending topic, to strive to find hope in the darkest of days and to resolve to resist, at every turn, the violence of fascism.

Dear Amicitia_NZ,

Thank you deeply for sharing your personal connection to the tragic events depicted in "La Desbandá 1937".

I am sincerely moved by your words and grateful for your commendation. It is my utmost hope that through this role-playing game, we can honor the memories of those who endured such hardships during the Spanish Civil War, like your great Aunt Salvadora and her family.

Your poignant account reinforces the importance of exploring challenging historical topics through mediums like games, fostering empathy, understanding, and a commitment to resisting oppression.

Thank you for being a part of this journey.

Warm regards,

Pablo López
