Maori: Warriors of the Long White Cloud - Compass Games - Unboxing and impressions

About Maori: Warriors of the Long White Cloud – Clan Warfare in New Zealand, from BoardGameGeek:

"Maori" is a wargame for one to four players, of clan warfare typical in Polynesia before European contact. Players build war canoes and train warriors (including the elite Royal Guard) to create a force to strike at their adversaries, while protecting or even fortifying their home village. The player is represented on the board as the Head Chieftain- if this unit is killed, the game is lost. Based on the same game system as 3W's "Tahiti", (published in 1994), "Maori" is a completely independent new game. This game has been completely re-designed as a card-driven area movement game.
