In the darkest age of Japan, endless war leaves a country divided.
Ten legendary warlords strive for supremacy as conspiracies and
conflicts wither the empire. Only one will rise above all to win
the heart of a nation as the new shogun... The others will die by
his sword.
Features:
- 9 Playable clans ranging from the large and powerful to the
tiny and weak.
Take charge of any of the nine major factions of Japanese feudal
history, from the mighty Oda to the more delicate but well
positioned Tokugawa clan. All of these clans could rise to take the
position of Shogun under your leadership.
- Pre-Battle speeches with Generals inspiring their men before
engaging.
Made famous in Rome Total War and much requested since, the
generals pre-battle speeches have returned! Daimyos and Generals
alike will seek to inspire their men on the battlefield (With
variable results) there are over 100,000 possible speeches that
could be delivered based on the character, their location, their
relationship to the enemy etc.
- Brand new siege mechanics vastly improved over Napoleon and
Empire.
Japanese siege warfare is markedly different form its European
equivalent. Castles are now elaborate death traps, with the enemy
being invited in to attempt to destroy the defender. Defenders and
attackers now have multiple options, paths and objectives within a
siege and a larger number of castle types make this all the more
elaborate and strategic.
- Much improved terrain and environments, mountains in battle and
new environments.
Shogun 2s terrain system is brand new to deal with the Japanese
landscape and the radically different topography it presents the
player. From savage mountain ranges to gentle landscapes and cherry
blossom trees, the new battlefield terrain system generates
battlefields that play utterly differently to previous TW titles
and feel totally unique.
- The four seasons on the battlefield. Autumn leaves to summer
sun.
The four seasons are fully represented on the battlefield for the
first time. Beyond simple snow and rain, the season system now
affects the battlefield conditions as a whole and has an impact on
the troops within it. This adds the staggering beauty of Japanese
landscapes, and the tactical depth of seasonal warfare.
- Sengoku-Pedia, an archive of all the units and history in the
game accessible from the menu.
A full knowledge base of the in game units and technologies, along
with historical facts and information relevant to the players
experience. Know what works against your enemies, how and why.
- Five stage castle sieges, breaking the outer walls of the
toughest castle is only the start.
Multiple types of castles, across a variety of terrain that can be
upgraded across five different levels of fortification allow for
truly diverse siege mechanics and siege play. Storming the outer
walls and entering a courtyard is simply the beginning of what is a
true challenge of both the defender and the attackers skill.
- Morale boosting buildings, capturing temples on the battlefield
offers reward.
For the first time, battlefields will feature structures that will
influence the men as they fight. Protect or capture shrines or
temples, or indeed burn those of your enemy, to dictate the morale
of troops on the battlefield. All new historical land battles,
drawn from the period. Famous battles such as Sekigahara will be
included for the player to test their mettle against historys
greatest tactical challenges and feudal Japans greatest
adversaries.
- Coastal battles; fight naval engagements of the coast of Japan
navigating islands and land.
For the first time ever Shogun 2 Total War combines land and sea
battles. Navigate the island coast of Japan, using the coast, mist
and the elements against your enemy. Use ships to create choke
points and to engage as the land dictates.
- Unique Hero units. Single men on the battlefield able to carve
through the enemy.
At the height of martial prowess and technology are the hero units.
Available to the player as legendary units of a certain discipline
these troops make a distinct difference on the battlefield. A
single hero surrounded by a handful of their disciples can take on
large numbers of enemy troops and will seek to find enemy heroes
and duel them to the death for the honour of their lord and their
clan.
