Cost: 200
Creation Time: four seasons
Produced by: Tranquil Garden
Notes: Specially trained samurai
whose etiquette and fluent toungue are as sharp
as their weapons. Use them to negotiate with
other daimyo, but beware: only their expericence
can protect them from ninja!
Cost: 400
Creation Time: four seasons
Produced by: Ninja House
Notes: The eyes, ears, and silent
blade of any daimyo, ninja are infamous spies and
assasins. The more experienced the ninja, the
better chance he has for acquiring info or
"disposing" of an enemy.
Cost: 1000
Creation Time: eight months
Produced by: Master Tea House
Notes: The Japanese female
equivalent of James Bond: stealthy, clever, sexy,
and oh-so-deadly. There is not much a daimyo can
do when faced with a geisha but to comply... or
hire a ninja.
Cost: 300
Creation Time: six seasons
Produced by: Jesuit Church
Notes: When dealing with Christian
daimyo, this is the man to call. Unlike an
emissary, a fellow Christian daimyo won't have
his body sent home in a small envelope... but
facing a Buddhist leader is another story.
Cost: 2000
Creation Time: twelve seasons
Produced by: Cathedral
Notes: There can be only one...
Father Visitor, and he is the head honcho of the
Christian Church in Japan. His presence makes all
other Christian daimyo helpless to resist... but
then again, ninja see to it that this situation
lasts for a minimal length of time.
