I brought Shogun from my parents basement. Box had not been touched in well over 20 years probably 25. It was my favorite game though for a while in middle school.
We opened the box. Nearly pristine condition. It reminds me just how well I took care of my things growing up. I couldn’t remember how to play.
We opened the directions book. 30 pages long! Holy cow. Maggie and Liz were patient. It probably took 2 hours to read the rules. Eventually, we made our first moves. Liz assassinated one of my daimyos and Maggie defeated a bunch of armies to acquire the most land.
I had fun playing a complicated game with the girls. I hope they had as much fun as me. We cleaned up around 1am and called it a night. I slept well
