About this expansion

Rising Sun: Promo 1 – Sacred Warrior, Phoenix, and Nure-Onna is a promotional set of three monster miniatures for Rising Sun, a game for 3–5 players with a play time of 120 minutes.

Each monster brings a distinct ability to the game. The Sacred Warrior is a panda with a force bonus tied to Virtue cards: it has +1 force for each Virtue card you have.

The Phoenix offers a remarkable response to being defeated. If Phoenix is killed, you gain VP and return it to the same Province immediately, allowing this monster to come back without changing Provinces.

The Nure-Onna has 2 Force and can influence where a battle takes place. Before resolving War in a Province, Nure-Onna may cross a Shipping Route to join that Battle.

  • Sacred Warrior: A panda with +1 force for each Virtue card you have.
  • Phoenix: If killed, gain VP and return it to the same Province immediately.
  • Nure-Onna: Counts as 2 Force and may cross a Shipping Route to join a Battle before War is resolved.

This set adds three clearly differentiated monsters to Rising Sun, with abilities focused on Virtue cards, returning after death, and movement into an impending battle. Their distinct rules make each miniature notable in its own way.

These three miniatures were included as stretch goals for the original Kickstarter campaign. As a result, this promo set brings together the Sacred Warrior, Phoenix, and Nure-Onna in one dedicated addition to the Rising Sun collection.
