Maybe I have to give another try to S2. I never played with the Otomo. And ROTS too, but in my memory it's the one I appreciated the less. I remember a very slow campaign start.

Re: I can't stop playing the SP campaign of this game !
Otomo are a blast, Nanban ships, guns, canons, and priests inciting riots in the streets of your enemies, it's a fine campaign.
As for ROTS, one of the most under rated games CA has made, the subtleties of that one were lost on most I'm afraid and it was quickly forgotten midst it's more bombastic sibling FOTS that released not all that long afterwards. It does have a slower start as you begin in basically in a 3 way power struggle and using agents to flip some early provinces is one of the only ways to avoid expanding your base early w/o immediately starting a war you really can't afford to start in earnest yet. Give it another go!
Re: I can't stop playing the SP campaign of this game !
I do like RoTS especially since it addressed some issues from vanilla campaign (ala a more balanced general skill tree) but FoTS felt much more action packed and had a loud bang to everything which gave me a good feeling. The deadly volley of the weapons makes the game full of carnage in literally seconds.

Re: I can't stop playing the SP campaign of this game !
Yeah, it was great fun to get some cannons going, the AI just had no hope of figuring out a way to cope with it, and I just could not stop myself from abusing the crap out of them with it.
Probably the single most entertaining thing I did in that game.
Re: I can't stop playing the SP campaign of this game !
The AI also knows how to use canons, sometimes. I payed a heavy price for not anticipating the change in the balance of power a few canons can bring in a siege. And my Daymio lost a son.
Re: I can't stop playing the SP campaign of this game !
Yes, I suppose they could put them to use in a siege, I didn't run across it much I guess because I tend to avoid those with the use of agents alerting me to stacks headed my way I try to only engage them in open the open battlefield, and when I lay siege I actually mean it, I sit there for however many turns it takes my enemy to decide to come out and engage.
Re: I can't stop playing the SP campaign of this game !
I have never played anything but vanilla S2.
Still one of my favorite TW titles; it...it...it gave me hope for the franchise!
