About this game
Subtitled: Samurai Skirmish Rules, 1100-1620 This is a 32-page rulebook for skirmish warfare (one figure = one warrior) for late Medieval Japan. The book has nice black and white drawings, rules for movement, different classes of fighters, melee and missile combat, mounted combat, and even includes movement charts for limiting the turn radius of mounted warriors at different speeds. The only dice used are d6s.
