The 7-week war elevated Tokugawa Ieyasu to Shogun and unified Japan for 265 years.- Sekigahara is designed to offer an historically authentic experience within an intuitive game mechanic that can be played in one sitting. Great effort has been taken to preserve a clean game mechanism. (Despite a healthy amount of historical detail, the ruleset is a brief 6 pages.)- No dice are used; combat is decided with cards. The combination of army and motivation produces impact on the battlefield - armies without matching cards don't fight. Battles resolve quickly, but with suspense, tactical participation, and a wide range of possible outcomes.- The initial setup is variable, so the situation is always fresh. Concealed information (blocks and cards) lends additional uncertainty. In this way the game feels like the actual campaign.- From the designer (Matthew Calkins): '[Sekigahara] plays like poker sometimes. You know how strong you’ll be in a hypothetical battle, and your opponent knows how strong he\/she will be, so you read each others’ actions to gauge whether you want to initiate it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PlayPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52629730066715,"sku":"B0073KK8SY","price":116.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0995\/2555\/8555\/files\/61pacjjPPWL._AC_SY879.jpg?v=1784546129","url":"https:\/\/doorup.shop\/products\/sekigahara-unification-of-japan-3rd-ed","provider":"doorup shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
