Dai Senso: Axis Empires
The Dai Senso Playtest Kit: As of May 2005, we have a formal playtest kit ready for Dai Senso (DS).
Below are .zip files that, when you print everything out, give you a complete playtest kit of the game: rules, charts, tables, counters, and maps. It's all there...
Naturally, we're hoping to get feedback from you. Thanks!

To ease your playtesting, Darren Kilfara has produced a Cyberboard play-by-email kit for this game. To use it, you need the v3 beta version of Cyberboard. The links to both are below:
From Darren Kilfara re: the DS Cyberboard kit:
Anyone who has used the TK2 CB kit
will know what's going on with the DS kit. You will need the v3 beta version of
CyberBoard to use the kit, but in case you're wondering it's really
"beta" in name only, i.e. you shouldn't feel shy about downloading and using it.
I've only included two-player scenario files in the kit for the time being (I
expect lots of changes and don't want to have to keep updating everything
twice!), but it's easy enough to create a three-player file if you want to, and
I can give instructions to anyone who needs them. The kit is a combination of
TK2 + DS, for when the time comes to play the combined game, but for the moment
it's probably best not to get any such delusions of grandeur. Aside from that,
if you have any questions or spot any errors, please e-mail me at:
