About this game
Game in the days of the Age of the Country at War! The rules provide for play with all the fundamental unit types – samurai, ashigaru, matchlocks, mounted samurai, ambush parties, shinobi, and foot samurai, as well as the important characters - taisho, tsukai-ban, daimyo and champions. Experience the flavor of late-samurai warfare with rules for spectacular suicides and challenges. Campaign and tournament play are facilitated by the short play time (about 2 hours), the fate of characters, and the allowance for withdrawal. Finally, Chrysanthemum Throne includes a plain English guide to painting samurai armies.
