In late 16th-century Japan, samurai Tokugawa Ieyasu allies himself with the country's most powerful clans, eventually assuming command of their armies. Ieyasu's loyalty, however, only goes so far, and in 1614, he renounces his allies and slaughters more than 100,000 in his quest to become Japan's new ruler.
