The game outcome is primarily determined by player strategy and decisions, with luck playing a minor role.
Overview
What ABG knows about this game
Bushido is a game of dueling martial artists, testing their training against one another. One shall prevail and prove their techniques superior. The other will return to studying until they are strong enough to win. Players begin with a card draft which represent the training of their fighters. After training players play a series of round wherein they play technique cards from their hands, or change their guards, in order to create a pool of combat dice which they hope to use to strike their opponent or defend their attacks. In this game damage escalates quickly so players must be able to block, evade, and strike simultaneously to try and keep the momentum of the encounter in their favor. The game ends when one warrior has bested the other.
