Hello all ,About the Project called Ran no Jidai , Times of Chaos is quite some time that we are working on this .... here is a brief description of the mod.....
1
It is a full conversion from BI expansion game based in the time of the Feudal Japan , named Sengoku Jidai ....
2
There will not be hoards of units , I am more for few but good than many but repetitive or similar , also this would just confuse players on my opinion...but every unit is highly detailed and historically precise , if you are expert of Japanese warfare , you will be able to recognize every single type of armour or equipment piece ...
3
Multiplayer oriented , this means that the multiplayer will be one of the main aspects and gameplay balance will be particularly taken care of ...
4
Historicity , all units will be remade in historical way , of which u will be always able to find the sources used and documentated , mainly information taken from osprey books , the several books about uniforms and reconstructions of Japanese era , with the help from several experts on the period...
5
New map ,made by BDH will span from northern Japan to the southern island with an incredible level of detail based on real topographical maps ....
6
some other scripting will be present ,like four seasons or respawining armies etc...
The Name is inspired about the purpouse of rewriting history in a time of turmoil for the Japan .....
7
New Animations made to depict at the best the Japanese style of fighting ....
the list of factions is ...
Kyushu:
Shimazu
Otomo
Shikoku:
Chosokabe
Miyoshi
Honshu:
Ouchi
Mori

total of 20 factions +rebels
So there will be big easy Clans and some little clans, very hard to play.
here is a fine example of the splendid works that are created by Tomte of Doom wich is also our main advisor for historical armour reconstructions ....
And Finally now some Screenshots of the Game .....
We have to also thank the huge work made by Kagemusha in the not as visible but eextremely important work on the text files without wich nothing would be showed here ...her an example of his work....that allowed New videos to be part of the events that will happen during the campaign ....
Here instead you can admire the splendid map made by BDH that with the help of Wild bill is being adapted to the Sengoku era mod ....you can notice the high precision in the reproduction of the actual Japanese territory ....
And new Strategical units too of course ...
