Title:
Samurai
Description:
You are now back in time-12th through 17th century Japan, to be exact. Your objective: the exalted title of ”Shogun.” As ”Shogun,” you will have the right to enforce the emperor’s will, and become the real ruler of Japan.
Broken Alliances and Vendettas ...
...and all those fun things that make for great board games is enbodied in this accurate portrayal of medieval Japan.
Samurai presents a see-saw contest based on the proposition that might alone does not make right. The gameboard’s geography and movement concepts do not favor the top heavy army that bulldozes its way through provinces. Japanese history from the 12th through 17th century was typified by a continuous flow of broken alliances, vendettas, treachery, and subtle military actions.
