The Russo-Japanese War is a faithful remake of the original Game Designers Workshop, Tsushima and Port Arthur designs. This box includes both individual games and everything needed to play the combined game covering the entire war. With upgrades to the artwork and the inclusion of official errata, The Russo-Japanese War is another classic reborn by Compass Games.
The Russo-Japanese War lasted from 1904 to 1905 between the Russian and Japanese Empires over both sides’ imperial ambitions for Manchuria and the Korean Empire. In Port Arthur, the emphasis is on the surprise Japanese attack on the Russians at the start of the war, and the focus is on land combat, while Tsushima centers on the decisive naval battle that sealed Russia’s fate and focuses on sea combat. Setting the stage for the Japanese Empire’s rise and contributing to Russian unrest, this conflict had global consequences. With three ways to play, this game has something for everyone!
