Tsuwamono No Michi - The Way Of The Warrior: Samurai Wargame Rules

Japan 1550 is in the midst of a civil war, the Onin war also known as Sengoku Jidai "The Age of the Country at War". The Royal Emperor and the Shogun "Military Dictator" have lost their grasp on power; Japan's provinces are now controlled by competing Daimyo "Warlords" each is trying to gain enough supremacy to make themselves Shogun.Aiding the Daimyo are the noble warriors of Japan the Samurai, whose skills and courage are endlessly tested against their opponents; opponents like the Shinobi "Ninja" sent to assassinate their Daimyo. The populous of Japan are being armed, these are the Ashigaru "Light Feet" the common soldier, but Samurai warfare is at its peak of perfection, attuned over centuries of conflict. The Sohei "Warrior Monks" have taken to their shrines in defence of their lands and the Ronin "Men of the Waves" roam the countryside looking for employment. Akuto "Evil Bands of Lawless Bandits" cause trouble from their hideouts, striking when least expected and causing the Daimyo to always be on his guard. The fanatical Ikko Ikki sect of monks and followers also threaten the fragile balance of power that the Daimyo have achieved.Firearms are rare and will not be seen in mass for another two decades. Under these conditions could you control a family clan acting as Daimyo and subdue your friends and defeat your enemies? Tsuwamono No Michi is not a wargaming set of rules for the faint hearted!Designed for Samurai Wargames miniatures of 15-25mm scale.
