nah the fun ended after I could not do my Musketeer formations anymore.
Was pretty neat seeing those Samurai hordes dying at the feet of my 4x3 formation of musketeer units with some Naginata support.
Because the row shooting was deactivated in the multiplayer you had to stretch out the units so that they were one line each. Then you made your formation with that line. Killed plenty of players with that because they thought my Musketeers would not be able to shoot :D

Make use of your surroundings, go watch some youtube vids and read up on tactics. Some other tips on the top of my head Seige equipment may look op at first but they are really weak due to lack of mobility. Yari cav is best cav (not familiar with dlc cav, should be good as well but I just do not have it) Loanswords are amazing when veteran Morale is the name of the game here so put many points into leadership so your troops do not break when the going gets tough. Most of these are mechanics and units, for real strategy I would still reccomend The Art of War, just read up an Ebook on...the bay where pirates reside. You don't need to pirate it, there are many legitimate free versions of the book that have been published on the internet. A quick Google search will do.

Man, I can't into gun tactics. This is why I never played Empire man, but I'm going to force myself to get this down because it's a legit challenge. I'm trying to find this perfect mix between traditional units to guard from cavalry, modernized units to fuck shit up, and all that. Let alone trying to figure out what the hell is going on with my navy now.
How are you all liking this expansion?

So Fall of the samurai totally broke the game. 150 range line infantry? black bear is soo overpowered. I get being in the advantage at range but their melee stats are simply too high. Katana samurai should be able to cut down unarmored musketeers...
Right now the multiplayer is just people spamming their gun armies and shitting on everyone who doesnt have the DLC. If its FoTS vs FoTS its basically a camp fest to get the first shot in

downloaded this, and it just gets stuck on the first screen when it first starts, dunno wot to do, tried reinstalling

It's not getting stuck it just takes an eternity to load the main screen especially the first time.

Yeah, it takes a minute to load up the game.
Also, has anyone noticed that the load time between turns is MUCH faster after that patch? Or is it just me?

Load times between turns seem the same to me lol. I'm really enjoying FoTS right now.

I have a quick question,
I'm thinking about buying this game and wondering
if this game can be played on 2 different computers at home simultaneously with 1 copy... not online but on lan?
Can my friend and I play co-op on lan together on 2 computers at home with 1 copy of the game?
Let me know, thanks in advance

So I just beat my first long campaign.
Definite 9/10 expansion. Dunno about MP balance, but at least for singleplayer, 9/10. Worth the dosh.
|
The battle AI is SO retarded. The game itself is amazing, but the stupid ai almost ruins any single player mode. And in multiplayer, it totally lacks of balance. I didnt play the expansion, but in vanilla, expensive units are always better than a more crowded but cheaper units. It could be flawless, but fails hard in a few important aspects. 9/10

|

Reviving this thread just to say how awesome this game is!
I recently finished the novel Shogun. The daimyo in the novel is loosely based on Tokugawa so I bought this game with the intent of playing Tokugawa and owning shit up!
I lost in 2 turns....
Anyways, after several losses, I decided to give up Tokugawa and try something else. I'm now ruler of Northern and Central Japan and now making a stab for the Shogunate. I will rule all of Japan and convert the whole country to my Ikko Ikki religion!

You should try head to head multiplayer sometime. Its quite poorly balanced but gives a plethora of very fun battlefield matchups

Multiplayer is scary T_T And I enjoy the micro management of my towns and armies too much to dive into MP yet :D

Anyone wanna get on Skype or somethin and play through a multiplayer campaign together? I've done it before with a friend and it was 100x more fun than single player so I'd like to try it again with someone. Hit me a PM or something if anyone wants to
