📖 About This Game

Test of Honour is a skirmish wargame played on a tabletop battlefield, with roughly 10-20 models on each side. Players select their force before each game based around a hero – perhaps a samurai, a masterless ronin, or even a warrior monk – along with one or two loyal companions and a variety of followers, who could be anything from clan soldiers to peasants. Battles are swift and bloody as players alternate acting with one of their warriors – moving and fighting to achieve the objective of the scenario, whether that be cutting down the enemy, defending an outpost or finding and protecting a spy. As you play through the battles, your hero will use new skills, and perhaps even take the shameful path of deceit and trickery to gain victory – such choices are the ultimate test of honour. This set contains: 72 page Rulebook 100 Gaming Cards 8 Custom Dice 67 Counters Unarmoured Samurai figure Bonus Online Content 2nd Edition keeps the core system of the version 1 (with various tweaks and balances) and adds new Honour & Dishonour cards, Traits, secret Quests, character progression, improved cavalry, expanded terrain rules, 18 different scenarios and more! —description from the publisher
