Deliver Aid In Real Time In Pandemic: Rapid Response
May 26, 2019 by cassn
Disaster has struck! Natural disasters are affecting cities across the globe. Cities around the world are in desperate need of food, water, vaccines, and other supplies. You and your team belong to the Crisis Response Unit (CRU), an international organization that provides humanitarian relief around the world. With a military-grade cargo plane that’s been retrofitted to produce and store valuable supplies, you are uniquely capable of providing life-saving aid—anytime, anywhere. Can you save humanity in time?
Pandemic: Rapid Response is a real-time board game based within the Pandemic universe, where you and your team must cooperatively work together to determine needs and deliver aid to affected cities across the globe.
Working with your team, you will move around inside the plane to various supply rooms, generating the resources required to help those affected: vaccines, food, power, first aid, and water.
Each city has different needs, for which teams must tailor their response. Each player has a set of six custom dice which they can roll up to three times to get their required symbols. Symbols can then be spent to carry out various aid-providing actions.
Each team will be made up of a series of professionals from around the globe whose unique skills can benefit the group and the aid-delivery process.
For example the Irish Analyst Adojua Soro allows you to re-roll your dice another two times, while the Japanese Engineer Soojin Sohn can change any dice to a plane symbol instead. Utilize the skills of your team to group benefit and save the world!
Pandemic: Rapid Response will be released on June 23rd, 2019 so keep an eye on your FLGS and the Z-Man Games website for further updates.

Sounds like a quick reaction game to win.
Me thinks someone needs to brush up on their vexillology… That is the flags of Ivory Coast and South Korea, not Ireland and Japan 😉
I dunno, Adjoua Soro, sounds pretty Irish to me 😀
