Tempers are fully enflamed after an ill-advised attack on the fortress at Noto by some nefarious scumbag (me). My marriage may never recover. #SamuraiSwords #BoardGames #FamilyStrife

Tempers have cooled off. Second attempt at #SamuraSwords at the start of round three. #BoardGames #FamilyStrife

My family just dusted off my old copy of Samurai Swords (aka Shogun). I hadn't played for about two decades. I can happily report that it remains an absolutely reliable generator of rage and disharmony among people who otherwise get along very well. Halfway through the third round my oldest son literally flipped his board. #SamuraiSwords #BoardGames #Echigo #FamilyStrife
