Searching info about Yuan Dinasty and other things...

[Rorschach]

Hello everyone! I am a catalan player of Shogun and soon, of Mongol Invasion (as soon as I finish the Takeda campaign: I have bought the expansion, but I don't want ruin the savegame!) and my first post is about seeking information the Chinese Yuan Dinasty, the one that attempted to attack Japan.
Of course, there is the new version of The way of the Daimyo, but is very focused in Genghis Khan and in that concrete period, and I'm seeking general information about all the Dinasty.
I am also interested in:
- Military technology (chinese and/or japanese)
- The real Sun Tzu influence in China and Japan: I know all about Cannas, Hastings or
Gallipoli, but only the game information about battles in China and Japan

Thanks!

The following thread from the 'official' Shogun forum had some interesting discussion about the nature of the Yuan forces at the time of the invasions of Japan. Includes some debate about how much 'Chinese' influence existed:

Thanks, DurrrutiColumn, a very interesting link.
Besides, it is very militar-oriented, and finally I'm focusing on general information on Yuan Dinasty. I would appreciate more links and information about yuan dinasty, not only the military.

Wow!!! Thanks, Toda, I bought the expansion five months ago and I haven't nor installed yet (well, I have read the new WOTD... so, the CD mustn't be bad), all because I think I read somewhere the old savegames were ruined
(I don't remember where... probably I confused with the user manual advice where says that the old configuration will lose... supose it refers to size army and these things...)

I'm going to install right now... Thanks , man! :-)
