Third Edition of a Classic Game

Ikusa™ was first published by Milton Bradley as part of the popular Gamemaster series of games. Originally
released as Shogun in 1986, it was later released as Samurai Swords in 1995,
and once again the game finds itself with a new name.

This latest edition features updated components and fresh art that breathe new life into the game.
We hope you enjoy playing it as much as we do.
