Joraku: Deluxe Edition(2015)

March on Kyoto! Joraku is the cult-favourite card game that fuses trick-taking with area control: every card you win in a skirmish also moves your samurai across Sengoku-era Japan, so each trick is a battle for the map. The Deluxe Edition upgrades designer Iori Tsukinami's BGG darling with 40 chunky wooden samurai meeples, a large fold-out map board and a new two-player mode - big strategy in a 30-minute box.
