During the waning years of the 15th century, many of the peasants in the countryside and the rural villages began to feel the mighty weight of taxation to support the various daimyo's military establishments. With many of the local samurai afield, it wasn't long before the hushed whisperings of uprising began to spread. The Ikkō-ikki, a resistance purportedly operating for the common people, rose up organically across the provinces of Japan. Craftsmen, peasants, monks, ronin, bandits, sorcerers, and even ninja are rumored to be among its ranks.
Meanwhile, the Oda and Chōsokabe clans are having a major dispute. Due to each clan's holdings and respective alliances, the looming war could threaten the uneasy peace that covers the realm. Do you side with the masses, back one of the leading clans, or attempt to bring peace to the land? Will you exploit the instability or defend the reign of the shogun? Or will you sit back and watch the world burn?
