The sun rises one final time over fields scorched by ambition.

Tokugawa Ieyasu, the cautious fox of Mikawa, was the last to fall in daylight — not by blade, but by the judgment of his peers. His name, once whispered alongside unity, ends in silence. Suspicion buried loyalty, and now the battlefield lies empty of all but ghosts.

That night, the storm reached its final crescendo.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki, the last breath of a decaying shogunate, crept through the shadows — one final grasp at control. In his mind, the sword still answered to the Ashikaga name.

But he was not alone.

Takeda Shingen, the Tiger of Kai, stood waiting. Knowing. Blade drawn not for revenge, but for the future.

Steel met steel in the dark. There are no records of the duel. Only the result: two bodies, bloodied and broken beneath the cold stars.

And when dawn came, only one figure remained:

Asakura Yoshikage.
No warrior. No tyrant. No visionary. Just a pathetic and lowly daimyo — weary, wounded, and alive.

The clans are gone. The thrones are empty. Nobunaga’s fire has gone out, and with it, the dreams of conquest. But in the quiet, the land breathes again. There are no lords left to raise armies. No banners left to burn.

The wars are over — not because peace was won, but because no one is left to fight.

much better than ironstove killing me - which was otherwise my fate.

@Nyte I died defending your honor.
But I would've been so pissed if you pocketed me.

@big_ass Thanks for hosting.
I had high hopes but low expectations for this game.
But it ended up really fun.

Commentary

I expected this game to go very differently. It was supposed to be a cult game.

A little disappointing that people AFK'd with high impact roles but also very cool that the town in this one actually lynched the AFKs and won the game off it.

I think it was supposed to be a fairly chaotic game, difficult for town to win, with strong scum factions that would compete with each other and a very swingy samurai chain kill mechanic.

Instead it was a straightforward vanilla mafia game which came down to a close lylo.

I do think LBJ nearly won. He just needed KKat to want to kill Nyte over him. Maybe he could've got Nyte lynched with Matty and then hope for KKat to go on Matty. Unfortunately KKat is pretty stubborn so once he announced he wanted Matty and LBJ dead, that was pretty much locked in if LBJ went with the Matty vote.

I will ask you guys if you think there is anything different I could've done to improve game quality, given people were low activity. Longer days? Different day end times? You can comment on basically anything if you have an idea.

Oh last comment. You guys definitely should not have been revealing all names day 1 (or maybe you should, it was very pro-town if you could understand Nobunaga was the cult leader)

LBJ was the only one who looked at his name and realized it clearly announced him as mafia

So instead announced himself as "Yasuke, the black samurai" lol

And last comment is that the cult aspect of this game was such a disappointment that I kinda want to host it again. Where was the cult?

Entire player list claimed their names day 1 except for ironstove (afk) and LBJ - both of whom had names that clearly gave away their roles

There was also one extremely historically significant name completely missing from the list so an intelligent fake-name claimer could get away with it with just a basic level of research

Separate, irrelevant comment. Great hosting and I love the effort you put into the flavor

i saw scum chat and never really read the role pm

Who is "he"?

One of the deciding factors in this game was when I saw this.

Since Rora flopped town, I figured Nyte would be town too.

Maybe a hunch. Maybe a lucky guess.
