An "homage" (?) to the classic Samurai movies of old. 12 Samurai and a hunter come together to assassinate Lord Matsudaira Naritsugu, the murderous leader of the Akashi clan, and to thwart his appointment to the Shogunate Council.

Perfectly balanced, with half an hour giving Samurai Motives, another half to assembling the assassins, half to skirmishes and readying the place of battle, and the last half hour to the battle. Standard "7-Samurai" sort of stuff, where the character of the players is assembled to play against overwhelming odds and through heroic self-sacrifice save the day.

Very little that's new, but - an old format well revisited.
