Samurai Battles: Ninja Attack

About this expansion

Samurai Battles: Ninja Attack is a 2013 expansion for 2–99 players, with an approximately 90-minute play time. It brings stealth, sabotage, and powerful ranged attacks to the military history game Samurai Battles.

The expansion introduces clever ninja who may be less powerful on the battlefield than samurai, but are indispensable as spies, assassins, and saboteurs. Their stealth can help undo an enemy’s plans, creating new possibilities beyond direct confrontation.

Alongside the ninja, Samurai Battles: Ninja Attack adds two distinctive types of samurai archers. Fast and powerful mounted samurai archers can dash across the battlefield and strike down foes from anywhere, while stalwart samurai foot archers attack from a safer distance.

• Ninja focused on stealth, spying, assassination, and sabotage
• Mounted samurai archers combining speed, power, and ranged attacks
• Samurai foot archers capable of raining death from afar
• Eight new scenarios for each of two rule systems

The expansion supports both the Commands & Colors and Art of Tactic rule systems. It includes eight new scenarios for each system, giving commanders fresh battles to explore with its new forces and tactical options.

Whether you use ninja to quietly disrupt an opponent’s plans or rely on archers to strike before enemies can engage up close, this expansion changes the nature of warfare in Samurai Battles.
