Sengoku (role-playing game)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sengoku: Chanbara Roleplaying in Feudal Japan is a role-playing game set is in the 16th century Japan. It was created by Anthony J. Bryant and Mark Arsenault and published by Gold Rush Games in 1999.
Sengoku comes as a single book. It uses the Fuzion rules system, which is highly-rated for flexibility but can be difficult to learn. There are detailed descriptions of society, weapons, language, locations and such, a comprehensive filmography, and quotations scattered throughout the book. The tone can be realistic, heroic as in Akira Kurosawa films, or super heroic as in many manga comic books.
A revised edition of Sengoku was published in 2002. It was nominated for the 2002 Grog d'Or Awards in the category Best RPG.
