Thread: 2010: 10 years Shogun Total War
I've come back to this game once again recently. Always worth a play and one of my favourite games ever.
welcome to the org jef, as well as back to STW.
Enjoy your stay

the only game I've ever played 17 hours straight. Truly epic!!!
Kyousei emono ken sono shunkan naniyori to-taru senka taitoru.
My compliments to a Swede that can speak Japanese (I asume its as Japanese, not speaking it myself). I'm 1/4 Swede myself (olson) on an aside...what does it mean might I ask?
wataksi wa Durango-san wakarimasen.
gollum: Don't understand? It's probably very garbled so that's no surprise 
A Nerd: Hej Hej! Talar du svenska?
Anyway, I tried to say that Shogun is the second best Total War game (after MTW). Very closely, I might add, and it's just personal taste. STW
is arguably a higher quality game. I still remember being 12 years old and playing the demo back in 1999 on my old crappy computer....
It was a particularly tough mission where you had the task of (If I remember correctly) defeating Yari Samurai with your group of Samurai Archers.
I started out on the slope of a large hill, with the enemy ominously and steadily marching towards me near the horizon across a plain. Eventually they
drew so close as to fall within arrow range. Only a few measly volleys went off before they were upon me and kicked the snot out of my poor troops!
I thought about how to properly take advantage of the surroundings. On the next try, I spotted a small patch of wood atop the hill. Hmmm.... maybe
I could hide there and ambush the enemy at the right moment? Turns out, the trees gave me a morale bonus when charging so that my opponents
fled after a short and brutal fight!
I could never look at an ordinary strategy game again after that experience. But my young mind drifted off to other things at that time, so I sadly
missed the golden years of the Total War community. But, better late than never.
Shogun - The coy smile of the Geisha, the shadow of the Samurai in the dawn, the thunder of tempered steel clashing.
