Anyone excited about blending history with roleplay?

Stray Crows RPG sounds intriguing, especially with the rich tapestry of the Sengoku and Edo periods to draw from. I'm all for narrative-driven games that let players weave their own tales; it's like being a part of a living history book!

Collaborative storytelling can be brilliant, but it would be a shame if the mechanics don't support a good tactical experience. What aspects of gameplay are you most looking forward to? Any particular stories or characters you hope to explore in that setting? Qapla'!
