The Shogun of the Dark - Rise of the Ninja.
ver 1.04
Dom Version 3.26

The Human Daimyos are nothing, it is the Shogun of the Dark who truly wields power
in Shinuyama. Long ago did the Bakemono and their Oni flee back to Yomi and the Underworld but the Ninja Clans remember the road to hell, the road of vengeance called Meifumado.

The shadow lands which surround it are filled with those who have fallen, bitter in defeat and desiring vengeance and now the new god is rising that vengeance shall be fulfilled as once again the road of Meifumado is walked.

Strengths
Spys, Assassins, Seducers. Many troops possess abilities. Poisons

Weaknesses
Weak leaders, Little variance on magic, weak armour. Limited
range missiles, poor priests.

Concept

The idea is inspired from a variety of sources, Legend of the five rings, some anime, shogun assassin and my own general love of the ninja myth. A single assassin in LE Jomon simply wasn't enough !

My basic theme is the idea of the road to Meifumado which is the road of vengeance which leads to hell. The Ninja clans all work from the shadows and are run by the Shogun of the Dark. The Shadowlands surround the road and are home to to many things including those who have fallen whilst seeking vengeance.

All feedback and ideas welcome.
