About this game

Hidden order tokens drive territorial conquest across the Legend of the Five Rings world. Battle for Rokugan distills Game of Thrones-style secret order placement into a tighter, faster experience. Each round you simultaneously place face-down order tokens across the map, then reveal to see whose attacks, defenses, and bluffs succeed. The limited token pool forces agonizing decisions about where to commit your forces and where to bluff. Plays in ninety minutes instead of four hours.
