Rising Sun Gold

Tom's Review: I'm a big fan of Rising Sun, but Talonsoft and Take Two is trying to change that with this underweight "gold" edition. It consists of the first game, the Imperial Strike missions (goofy hypothetical scenarios in which the Japanese invade the Seattle area), and no manual. That's right, a complex wargame with no manual! You could print out the 196 pages from an Adobe Acrobat file, but you'd do better to just buy the original Rising Sun. Which comes with a manual. Like a wargame should. Dammit. Call this lousy half-baked excuse for an expansion "Rising Sun Dross".
