About San Guo Sha: The Return of Legend

UNAUTHORIZED PRODUCTION The information that BGG has on this item indicates that San Guo Sha is an unauthorized reproduction of BANG! with just a few differences, published in China and distributed in several coutries of the world. All official expansions (Battle, Wind, Fire, Woods and Mountains) released in 2011, at the same time with 2011 Standard edition of the base game. Yoka released this edition together with the 2011 Standard edition, updating the terminology and the new cardback so that it can be mixed with the latter. Legends of the Three Kingdoms (a.k.a. San Guo Sha) is a card game based off the Chinese classical novel, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which shares many rules with Bang!, the differences are as follows: 1. The Monarch (Sheriff) may get an additional skill related to their kingdom allegiance; players routinely have two powers. 2. Weapons may have their own additional powers. 3. A card to let a player borrow a weapon from another. 4. A card to cancel the effect of other cards. 5. Peach (Beer) may be played by any player when someone loses their last life; there is no exemption of using Peach when there are only 2 players left. 6. The game proceeds counter-clockwise.
