Abstract: We introduce First-Order Coalition Logic ($\mathsf{FOCL}$), which combines key intuitions behind Coalition Logic ($\mathsf{CL}$) and Strategy Logic ($\mathsf{SL}$). Specifically, $\mathsf{FOCL}$ allows for arbitrary quantification over actions of agents. $\mathsf{FOCL}$ is interesting for several reasons. First, we show that $\mathsf{FOCL}$ is strictly more expressive than existing coalition logics. Second, we provide a sound and complete axiomatisation of $\mathsf{FOCL}$, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the first axiomatisation of any variant of $\mathsf{SL}$ in the literature. Finally, while discussing the satisfiability problem for $\mathsf{FOCL}$, we reopen the question of the recursive axiomatisability of $\mathsf{SL}$.
