Honour, Deception, and Battle Await in For the Empire!

Will you fight with honour—or hide your strength until the perfect strike?
For the Empire is the gripping first Dynasty Pack in the Inheritance Cycle for Legend of the Five Rings: The Card Game. This expansion arms players with fierce warriors, clever tactics, and a brand-new mechanic that rewards timing and cunning.

Looking to strengthen your clan’s battlefield presence with bold Bushi and hidden power plays? This pack is for you.

Inside, you’ll find 22 new cards (three copies each of 19 unique cards and one copy each of three more), focused on the brave samurai who live and die for their clans.

Whether you play honourably or cloak your moves in mystery, For the Empire deepens the strategic choices for every faction. Surprise your opponents, bolster your military strength, and redefine your duels with new Bushi, courtier, and shugenja combinations.
