Tokugawa Ieyasu and Ishida Mitsunari battle for control of Japan, racing to seize key castles and break the opposing coalition’s will to unite the country.

Gameplay

March wooden armies along roads, play cards to commit clans, and fight battles to capture castles and eliminate enemy forces before the campaign ends. The strain is choosing when to reveal your strength while doubting which allies will actually show up when the fighting starts.
