Edo

In Japan from 1603 until 1868, the Emperor's position was weak - and in his place, a Shogun of the Tokugawa clan ruled with a stern hand to ensure peace among the Daimyos. The insignificant fishing village of Edo became the new seat of government and soon emerged as the most important city in Japan - a city known today as Tokyo.
In order to protect themselves from intrigue during this time, the Tokugawa clan required each Daimyo to take up residence in Edo while also spending a considerable portion of their wealth to develop the region.
The samurai are disarmed, and the best of them now serve their lords as stewards. If one does not question the Shogun's claim to power during these troubled times, a Daimyo may gain wide influence on other families....

Object of the game:
Assuming the roles of Daimyos, the players build houses, trading posts, and casltes to develop Edo and its surroundings.
They gain power points for buildings and trading during the game, and for money in hand and samurai on the game board at game's end.
The player with the most power points after the final scoring wins - provided he has built at least one house in Edo.

This tabletop sim includes the base and the first expansion, 2-3 player board and 4 player board, (the 2-3 player board is in a shuffle bag near the top left).
Create a Hide box around your player board (don't forget to lock down the board) where you have placed your board. After choosing your actions for the turn either delete the hide box or move the board out of the hidden area.
