samurai armies : like to play? From: jabmalin@dingo.cc.uq.oz.au (Bret Malinas) Date: Tue, 20 Dec 1994 04:53:08 +0000 I am starting up a game called "bushido". I need ten players. You can choose from monk, shogunate general, ninja, or daimyo. Most of it can be played over the internet, but some battles and maps need to be posted. For rules, send a 75 cent stamp or contact me on my email address to talk about a suitable settlement. My address is Bret Malinas, Dept Japanese and Chinese studies, University of Queensland, St Lucia, Qld 4072 Australia. It's a fun and easy game, that tests your intelligence. The way to win is to capture Edo and Kyoto, the centres of cultural and military power. To do it you need to build up economic power and alliances. If you do that, you or your offspring will be Shogun. Bushido means way of the warrior. Please feel free to communicate. It should take a few months to get the required players. But meanwhile, I'll test newcomers with some smaller battles so they can get the hang of it. See you, Bret. Up
