About the game
Game description from the publisher: Through force and diplomatic guile the Shōgunate has taken to the mainland. Divisions of Ashigaru march against the enemies of the Shōgun Hatamoto, while highly trained agents of the elusive "Shin" use the cover of darkness to accomplish their goals. The Shōgunate Troop Pack for Tannhäuser includes one painted Ashigaru figure and one Shin Agent figure, each with character sheets. This, along with 24 game tokens, 17 equipment cards, and a 12-page rulebook with an included scenario, lets you add these versatile killers to your Reich or Shōgunate team.

Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Tannhäuser: Shogunate Troop Pack is 60–120 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Tannhäuser: Shogunate Troop Pack for ages 13 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Tannhäuser: Shogunate Troop Pack has a complexity rating of 1.5 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game.

The catalogue lists Tannhäuser: Shogunate Troop Pack as an expansion for Tannhäuser. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Tannhäuser to use it. Check that your edition of Tannhäuser is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
