New thing we find

[CivFan]

I was watching the new shogun 2 Ninja video http://www.megavideo.com/?v=JQCMA28S When I started to see new things I had never seen before.

(1) units including agents will now have there own icons in the left corner. Also they will change as the unit gain experience.

(2) There will no longer be an agent banner, and building construction will be the same as in ETW.

(3) Units will again have individual banners over them as they did in STW one.

I find it interesting how much you can learn from these videos with a careful eye. I was also wondering if anyone noticed anything new from one of their videos that we have not realized. Here are the links to the videos I know of.

I can't comment on 1 & 2 since I haven't played a TW game since RTW, but good catch on #3! That was one of the hopes I've heard other express, and I'm happy to see that nice little touch too. :2thumbsup:

I'd guess those are the Taisho's standards/family member, depicting a general's unit heads that particular army. Nice to see the fan and parasol again but this is the SP campaign map and it looks much the same as M2TW in that respect.
Greg, I was one of those who requested the unit banners .... on the battlefield. Not 4 banners for honour 4 unit, 7 for H7 etc .. just banners, complete with mon for realism.
