Overview

What ABG knows about this game

Description from the publisher: Imperial Storm is a board game for 2 to 9 players set in historical Chinese Court (2-4 players for basic and competitive mode, 5-9 players for casual mode). It is a strategy game about collecting cards, managing your resources and overpowering your opponents: You can rely on princes with promising future to the throne, dukes with enormous wealth and power, or great generals with huge armies in their hands. Or you can ally with consorts plotting to gain favor, the queen ruling the royal harem, or the queen mother reluctant to let go of the puppet string. Even those seemingly innocent maids, or eunuchs murmuring in dark corners can get dirty jobs done. No king rules forever: proper use of limited resource and correct judgment of opponents and situations can help you to take advantage from different sides, survive in merciless conspiracies, and dominate the court in the end.
