Two tacticians battle to infiltrate or capture the other's Shogun in a strategic game similar to Chess or Shogi. The tacticians send messages to and from the battlefield which causes a delay in the actions being taken. The key to victory is to understand how to properly utilize the special command, the Chain Message, which allows game pieces of the same kind, positioned next to each other in a vertical or horizontal direction, to advance in the same way and in the same turn. The player who can fulfill one of these requirements, wins: infiltrate the opponents base 3 times capture the opponent's Shogun On a turn: Reveal and activate your previous planned action card Earn strategic energy Plan a future action by placing a card in your queue There are only 3 types of troops, infantry, cavalry, archers.
