THIS IS AN EXPANSION FOR THE LEGEND OF THE FIVE RINGS ROLEPLAYING GAME: This is not a complete game experience. You will need a copy of the Legend of the Five Rings Core Game in order to play with this expansion.
A WORLD OF ADVENTURE AWAITS: Take on the roles of samurai from the seven Great Clans serving their lords across Rokugan where warriors, courtiers, priests and monks defend their lord’s interests while upholding the Code of Bushidō, a code that demands samurai ignore their own desires in favor of justice, loyalty, and honor.
ROLEPLAYING STRATEGY GAME: What lines will your character cross at their lord’s order? What desires will your character sacrifice to uphold their ideals? Eastern storytelling valorizes individuals sacrificing themselves to maintain societal harmony, but ideals and human emotions cannot easily be put aside even by the greatest of samurai and this inner conflict drives the drama of Legend of the Five Rings.
