Edo Jidai

Edo Jidai is a game of conquest set in the very end of the 'Age of War" in Japanese Samurai history. With few remaining clans battling for complete control of the entire Nation, players must combat one another and conquer enemy castles.

With a time limit rule set, Edo Jidai games can finish within a set time limit or be played out to each round's end game.

Similar to Risk, Edo Jidai goes far beyond what a regular game of conquest can offer with its 150+ game cards that bring players into the context and story of each game. Card play revolves around attack and defense. Territory cards can be cashed in for armies, however, have duel purpose and can be used for combat as well. This makes hording cash-in cards very difficult ensuring game outcomes are different every time.

Also, a lot of cards can be played at any time in the game (it doesn't have to be your turn), so players are constantly engaged.
