About the game
What you do in a play session
If you're into the Shadows of Brimstone vibe and want another challenge for your crew, the Takobake Cannon Enemy Pack is here to spice things up! This expansion introduces a giant siege cannon, the kind the Fallen Shogun would use to blast down fortress walls and monasteries. Imagine heavy artillery spitting explosive cannonballs, capable of causing massive damage in just a few hours.
The pack doesn't just come with the XL miniature of the cannon and its crew; you also get the Enemy Record Sheet and all the Threat Cards needed to integrate this bad boy into your adventures. It's the type of enemy that demands strategy and good teamwork to defeat, typical of cooperative games with dice rolling and grid movement that we already know and love from Shadows of Brimstone.
Get ready to face a threat that can turn the tide of the game with its overwhelming firepower. Be aware that there's a high language dependency, so having a good grasp of English or a translation handy is recommended to make the most of it. If you're a fan of card play, miniatures, and tackling cooperative challenges that keep you on the edge of your seat, this pack is a significant addition. It introduces a large-scale combat element and a memorable foe that will test your group's coordination. It's time to ready your weapons and face this monstrous artillery!
