Description

Introduction:

Honor is Stronger than Steel.

"You need no armor, you need no sword. You need only to know that you cannot be defeated." - The Tao of Shinsei

Welcome to the Realm of Rokugan:

The Emerald Empire of Rokugan. It is a land upheld by honour, guided by fate, ruled by destiny. The Great Clans each support the Emperor, but inter-clan conflict is inevitable—both in the Emperor’s courts and on the battlefield. In the midst of danger and turmoil, honour must be your sword and your armour.

Enter the vibrant world of Rokugan with Legend of the Five Rings: The Card Game, a Living Card Game of honour and conflict for two players! Drawing on the legacy of AEG’s original Legend of the Five Rings collectible card game, and now reimagined with new mechanics, story, and the Living Card Game distribution model, you are invited to join the Great Clans, uphold the tenets of Bushidō, and fulfil your duty to your daimyō and the Emperor in a world shaped and changed by a dynamic, player-influenced story.

The Great Clans of Rokugan:

During the game, you take on the leadership of one of the Great Clans which define Rokugani society, and you are cast into conflict against another clan. Your conflicts will decide the future of Rokugan, whether you’re battling with a katana or with cutting words, but the samurai of your clan cannot remain by your side indefinitely—when their destinies are fulfilled, you must find new allies to continue your conflicts. Ultimately, it’s your choice whether you will fight with honour or use unsavoury means, but in every game, it is your role to lead your clan to victory.

Seven Great Clans await your command in the Legend of the Five Rings: The Card Game Core Set. For over 1,000 years, the Great Clans have served the Chrysanthemum Throne according to their unique strengths and weaknesses. As new conflicts erupt across Rokugan, you’ll need to decide which clan has won your loyalty.

Features:

Legend of the Five Rings: The Card Game is a two player game in which each player takes the role of one of the seven Great Clans of Rokugan. In the game, players vie for political and military dominance while simultaneously observing the strict codes of conduct that preserve their honour. Each player commands their forces from two different decks: a dynasty deck that fills their provinces with characters and holdings, and a conflict deck consisting of tactics, manoeuvres, and tricks that can be used to turn the tide of a conflict.

During a game, players engage in conflicts against their opponent’s provinces in an attempt to break them. The first player to break the province that holds their opponent’s stronghold wins the game. However, the players must also monitor their honour as they contest one another, for it is possible for a player to win by achieving a high degree of honour, or to run out of honour and shamefully lose the game.

Legend of the Five Rings: The Card Game is a two-player game that can be played using just the contents of this core set. In addition, Legend of the Five Rings: The Card Game is a Living Card Game (LCG). Its experience can be customised and enhanced through the purchase of regularly released 60-card expansions called Dynasty Packs. Unlike collectible card games, all LCG expansions have a fixed distribution: there is no randomisation to their contents.
