Ah, the fallen covering the field, great screenshot! I always like to survey the field after a battle, pay homage to the dead
I like to call this one: "Oops I think I left the back door unlocked."

And here's one from my Shimazu campaign:

I get to deploy on a nice ridge, protruding out of the mist.

I do love the mist, but I hate fighting in it. This battle was great though, getting a proper hill is rare it seems.
What a shot :shocked:
I especially love the castle bathed in the morning mist in the background of the map. Amazing stuff.
Here is one I took.

Looking good JujuBee!
Fighting a lot of siege defenses I see, AI got you on the ropes? :grin2:
One clan from that Shimazu island did a naval invasion way behind my lines in the province where Date starts. I was pushing thru Chosakobe territory! Took me by complete surprise! :D

Good luck pushing out the invaders!
Thanks! As I struggle to pull together an army to get rid of them, I will push on. 12 more provinces and I win the campaign!
It helps to have trade routes because you get a bit of line-of-sight along them so you can keep an eye out for fleets with armies if you pay attention.
I always have a full fleet on each side of Honshu, around my westernmost/easternmost province. Granted, I've only played Chosokabe and Shimazu, so those fleets basically protected the west entirely, eventually. Though all the straits and bays in the inland seas between Kyushu, Shikoku and Honshu are a nightmare early on in both campaigns. I had 4 fleets for a while, to be sure not to lose trade income because of surprise wako pirates and instantly go bankrupt.
Here's some random shots--two or three out of a campaign--all the rest were from the spring rice field in the battle generator
This was out of my Shimazu campaign. I just like the dynamic of the charging cavalry. Wish I had saved a battle replay so I could have removed the big banners

The Shimazu chase the Chosokabe out of their pot patch:

Lastly, just for grins--seems like there should be an elf setting under that tree:

That second last shot is really cool. Nice grey-scale thing...
Thanks. Other than cropping, that shot is actually unaltered/unedited. It was one of those misty winter battlefields where all the trees look white, but there's no snow of the ground. The light was coming from behind, so it gave it that grey scale look.Quote:

Amazing posts Forward Observer :bow:
I really like the picture of the castle, very peaceful. Almost makes you forget there's a battle going on.
Really nice, scenic screenshots Forward Observer. I like the ones with the charging cavalry in the field. You should post some to the screenshot contest running at the moment.
Great screenshots FO. Very artistic. The photographer in me loves them. :bow:
Wow, a lot of very nice screenshots here.
Now, if only there were some sort of contest where you could win a $50 game with your screenshot....
:book:

I will be posting something to the contest, but I was holding off--hoping that the DX11/10.1 fix was going to happen before the submission time is up since I wanted at least one of my two entries from the new game.Quote:

Due to a slight miscalculation on my withholding, I got an embarrassingly large tax refund this year, and decided to blow some of it on a new graphics card.

:grin2: Sometimes it's not the fighting that proves to be the most interesting part of the battles... but rather the peacefulness you're about to shatter.
