From BoardGameGeek

Instead of providing a broad overview of Feudal Japan, A Most Dangerous Time focuses in on the most dire moment of all: 1570-1584. Oda Nobunaga, one of the most notorious figures in Japanese history, fights against all of Japan and the victor will be the ultimate master of all of Japan. Details: Players: 2 (3-4 player variant) Complexity: medium Playing Time: 4 -20 hours Scale: Map: point-to-point Game Turn: bi-annual Counters: Individual leaders and 1000 men per strength point This is the game that made Tetsuya Nakamura famous. As you have seen from MMP's Fire in the Sky and from MMP's A Victory Lost, Nakamura provides a unique insight into military history. MMP is proud to present what is widely considered to be his finest effort. (from the MMP website)
