I never noticed much difference in the graphics. With the expansion the campaign is changed greatly from original shogun. There are a lot of helpful features in MI but the campaign in original shogun was better.

Sasaki, I forget: What *were* the changes MI made (aside from the Mongol campaign and a few extra units and buildings)? It's been so long since I played the original Shogun I've forgotten.

Suicide daimyos fixed (for the most part. and this might have been done in a patch). Hojo horde fixed (also maybe in a patch). Some maps were made bigger, with water. Some new terrain types. I'm sure there are plenty of other changes I'm forgetting.

The best thing about MI is actually the historical campaigns, which are loads of fun. Oh, and the campaigns starting at 1530, 1550, and 1580. I really enjoyed those.
A random thing I just thought of- units kick up dust when they march. They don't do that in vanilla STW.

Ah, thank you much! :bow: I knew the different start times were new, but I'd forgotten about the combining units and the daimyos having less of a death wish--I'd come to take those things for granted! I do remember (now that you mention it) how MI makes buildings quicker and cheaper to build. I always thought it was pretty ridiculous that a port cost 1500 koku and took 2 years to build. (And don't even get me started on castle costs and build times!) ~:rolleyes:
Hmm, it's been a couple weeks since I last played Shoggy. Think I might have to get in another game here later today.... ~D
