The Shogun has proven just as impotent, as the lords, the daimyo, settle old scores and seek to strengthen their families� positions at the expense of their rivals. Warfare stalks the land, leaving none untouched. Great houses are destroyed, their faithful retainers scattered, while upstart clans gamble all in hopes of supplanting them. Warrior monks leave their mountain strongholds, ronin roam the land, yet the arts flourish. Brigands terrorize the countryside, while each village looks to its own defense, but each spring sees the rice planted anew. The brave and daring might gain position and wealth, or death on a lonely road. It is Sengoku jidai, the time of the Country at War.
