For years, the Han Empire and its authority has been weakening. Most of the governing warlords would rather increase their own personal military strength rather than restore power to the Han. The Yellow Turban Rebellion has long since passed, yet whispers of rebellion have grown louder and louder over time. The land is at the brink of war.
Death of Heaven is a negotiation & area control game for 4 to 6 players. Players are warlords at the end of the Han Dynasty competing to become Emperor. Players spread their influence across the land. They can choose to defend their own cities, ally with NPC forces, or support the Han emperor; each giving their own rewards and bonuses. When a battle does occur between two players, the other players must choose to either support the attacking or defending side of the battle.
Outmaneuver your opponents, cut off their support lines, and squeeze. Loosen your silver tongue and negotiate your way out of defeat, turning the tables against your foe at the perfect time. Many paths to victory lay ahead of you. Will you restore power to the Han Empire or sail to victory on the blood of your enemies?
