LAND OF THE RISING SUN

"Engage in combat fully determined to die and you will be alive; wish to survive in the battle and you you will surely meet death." Uesugi Kenshin "In this world love has no colour - yet how deeply my body is stained by yours."

Izumi Shikibu (c.976 - 1040 CE)

"As a Samurai, I must strengthen my character; as a human being I must perfect my spirit."

Yamaoka Tesshu

Land of the Rising Sun, was first published in 1980, using the 1st Edition Chivalry & Sorcery game mechanics. Described at the time as "an estimable addition to a FRP aficionado's library. Aside from being well-explained, it is necessary for those who want to fully understand C&S. The care with which Japanese myth has been reproduced is simply amazing."

With the new 5th edition of Chivalry & Sorcery being streamlined and more playable, it was only right that Brittannia Game Designs worked with Lee Gold (winner of three Origins awards) once more to update Land of the Rising Sun to the new edition, brand-new edition is bigger and better than ever before, and for the first time ever is brought to you as a full colour hardcover book.

This is the first full blown setting expansion for Chivalry & Sorcery 5th edition and adds additional rules to the core rule book.

The books are full colour hardcover complete with reading ribbon and silk paper.

Also available in a standard retail edition cover version.

Land of the Rising Sun covers the late Classical period of Japan, through the middle of the Feudal period, circa 850–1500 CE.

Character generation follows a similar path as in 5th Edition Chivalry & Sorcery, giving you and your players the tools to create characters from Samurai to Ninja. The Magick rules draw on the Japanese elements of Air, Earth, Fire, Metal, Water and Wood, while the Religion rules allow people to play Buddhist or Shinto Priests, adding other branches of religion to those found in Chivalry & Sorcery.

With Land of the Rising Sun you will be able to create your very own version of Feudal Japan, whether you include the various elements of Folklore and Myth or go for a pure Historical campaign for the right to be Shogun.

Land of the Rising Sun is an expansion for Chivalry & Sorcery 5th Edition and will require the C&S 5th edition core rule book.
