Känner ngn till något scenario som (till stor del) handlar om en infiltration av en sån där klassisk samuraiborg, med många våningsplan, knarrande näktergalsgolv, patrullerande vakter osv? Ninjor, skjutdörrar, fällor, geishor m m. Smyga, repklättring, osv.
Typ något till Bushido, LtfR, Oriental Adventures, RQ Land of Ninja, Ronin eller DoD Samuraj?
 
Det är inget äventyr, så det hjälper inte så mycket, men se tv-serien Blue Eye Samurai, speciellt avsnitt 6, som känns som ett rollspelsäventyr där huvudpersonen tar sig in i en borg full med fällor och fiender.
 
Så jag hade den briljanta idéen att använda kartan från Darth Vadera slott! För, han är en rymd samuraj och jag vet att slottet dyker upp i både Jedi Academy och Star Wars Hunters (eller, Hunters är om Wrestling motsvarigheten i Star Wars så det är en replika av Vaders slott där… Men nära nog!). Men jag kan fan inte hitta några kartor på nätet!
 
En podintervju kanske passande för tråden:
"Oleg Benesch and Ran Zwigenberg’s coauthored Japan's Castles: Citadels of Modernity in War and Peace (Cambridge University Press, 2019) uses the fate of castles after the Meiji coup of 1868 as a case study to explore aspects of Japan’s modern history including historical memory, cultural heritage, and state-civil society and national-regional relations. The authors show that although castles entered the modern era as a symbol of the dark “feudal” past Japan hoped to leave behind, they quickly took on a diverse set of functions and meanings. According to Benesch and Zwigenberg, urban castles in particular—such as those in Tokyo, Osaka, and Nagoya—were important to the formation of both national and regional identities, playing key symbolic and practical roles as parks, military garrisons, representations of various collective pasts, etc. Especially as society was militarized in the 1930s, castles came to be celebrated as a unification of modernity and tradition, the imperial and local, military and civilian. Though the political climate and the valences of Japan’s recent and more distant pasts were thrown into upheaval with war and defeat, even after 1945 castles retained a literally and figuratively large footprint in Japan. The authors explore the divergent histories of castles including Hiroshima, Kanazawa, and Kokura and the “castle boom” of the early postwar decades to illustrate ongoing tensions between visions for individual regions and Japan itself in the period of national rebuilding that followed World War II, and conclude with reflections on the significance of the current wave of castle reconstructions with “authentic” materials and techniques in the context of growing global interest in cultural heritage as a kind of intellectual property that conveys both soft power and hard currency. Whether dismantled or garrisoned or transformed into munitions factories or parks, and whether original, bombed, rebuilt, or conjured up as roadside attractions, Benesch and Zwigenberg show that the shifting circumstances and meanings of castles can teach us much about Japan’s modern history."
