Sun Tzu*
In 506, Sun Tzu marched up the Hwai River and faced an attack from Ch'u armies led by King Shao. Outnumbered, Sun Tzu feigned retreat to trick King Shao into spreading his forces, allowing Sun Tzu to crush them in the Battle of Bai Ju. Players assume the roles of Sun Tzu or King Shao, using strategy and card play to unite China without brute force, while the game progresses through rounds of tactical decision-making.
