Ah yeah, battles were much more balanced as well.
Still don't like it though.

i assume those gameplay changes will have been inherited in shogun 2, though?
PC Gamer gave it a 92... they're nothing but hype-merchants nowadays, but the review looked good

What was wrong with Empire? I enjoyed that far more than the previous games. 10+ minutes of just maneuvering troops for melee combat gets tedious when you have to do it for every battle.
The reviewer must have never played a total war game. Aside from the multiplayer aspects it seems like the same shit as before.
I am not into the time period and the scale is too small for me. I will wait for Rome 2 or Med 3.

I was really sad when they got rid of the unique territory bonuses after Medieval Guess it doesn't really work with the non-Risk-style board though.Uzique wrote:
shogun 1 is pretty much seen as the best game they've done in the series. rome/medieval are also seen as being very good, depending on your preference and experience, i suppose. but shogun ate up SO many of my hours. it was amazing and nothing like it had been around before that. fuck i don't even want to spend the money, really, but i'm going to.

If you don't mind not watching up-close battles, Europa Universalis III: Divine Wind gives you a good Japan sim.Uzique wrote:

Man siege battles are hard, are there any siege weapons?
Also, i fucking love the banners behind the soldiers, so fucking cool

I dont think those features are very scalable either. The Total War engine is already taxing enough.Macbeth wrote:

Custom Battle generator? I don't remember that in previous TW games.
At first glance this is looking like it has a lot of potential.
