Generals is a trivia game about the history of The Salvation Army. Your pawn is an early leader of The Salvation Army. You roll dice to move around the board and answer questions related to the early history of The Salvation Army. There are spaces which you would draw a "Scalawags or Scoundrel" card. This card asks you a relevant personal question for you to talk about with the other players. The board is adapted from the illustration that accompanies William Booth's, the founder and first General of The Salvation Army, book, "In Darkest England and the Way Out."
