A province in STW I very much like to have was Shinano.

There are a lot of decisions to make that could potentially have long term ramifications. I just wish that more definitive information was out there. Thanks for the heads up though Cecil.

I would find it very annoying to swap units around like that trying to tweak out my funds just to get them all spent because they removed honor upgrades for the avatar system and gave nothing in return to correct left over funds aside from switching units until you have a perfect fit - no thanks

That's how it seems. From a marketing strategic perspective it makes lots of sense, but of course not the best for good gameplay etc.

Not quite wow meets totalwar but somewhere inbetween more on the totalwar side :)
Its pretty good for new guys but does little for the veteran players but im glad that it should bring a wider community into play.
Shogun 2 feels more like stw1 or mtw1 than any games since then and for that im happy.

Its between the glass is half full and going to watch Rambo1 once more;

the same tough perennial existential question for TW mpers.

Right, i think its time for my yoga now. And a vallium.

Skill trees are nothing new in RTS games and the gear is just looks nothing else. It's not bad to pick what way you wanna have your general leadership, bow, melee, or hybrids instead of your old generic general.
