coolest looking faction

[GiantMonkeyMan]

or if you would like; faction you'll play as first



basically, from at that pic that tomte drew a few months ago, what do you think is the coolest looking samurai outfit

to me the satomi or the asai look the best... they are also probably either of the first factions that i play as

[ByzantineKnight]

Miyoshi or Uesugi, they are awsome!!

[Ujio]

hm,I think I would play at first the Tokugawa or the Hosogawa

[Ujio]

Hosokawa,sry....but at first,I only want to play,which faction ever^^I´m afraid that it needs a long time more tobe published

[Taneda Santôka]

Ah! Good to see some active minds around! Mine hasn't, lately...
I won't hide my clear preference for Chosokabe.

[Ujio]

your are right^^not much are active here...I heard from Kagemusha or Tomteofdoom a long long time ago^^

[Kagemusha]

Boo! Im here. My favourite factions are Hosokawa, Ouchi and Miyoshi.But i like the rest too.

[beauchamp]

Uesugi 4 life

[Aturus]

Mogami or the Mori will be my frist factions to play. cant wait.

[Seign Thelas]

CHOSOOOOO

...kabe.

[Hold Steady]

Ouch-i? They used to getting spanked?

Ah man.. I'm so waiting for this game...

[Rigochu]

everyone... but i'll start with the Otomo, Urakami, Asai, Amako, Mogami, Date, Mori, and Miyoshi!!!

[Revolting Friendship]

From a gameplay point of view we all know Chosokabe is the definate answer. ;)

From a aesthetic point of view.... Well I designed the Chosokabe out of preference tbh, lol. But since, I've also grown fond of Date, Otomo(and they would be interesting to play too) Amako and Ouchi.

The ugliest are either Shimazu or Takeda, they look too ordinary.

Cool to see some activity here. Sorry for not helping this game over the finishline more than I am.

Taneda, you've got the graphix-filez, show us some screenies or die.

We need Chosokabe fighting Takeda-action and I mean yesterday. BTW, haven't you got the new arrows installed?

[Taneda Santôka]

... My graphic card really sucks right now, so here's all I get : the yellow dude on the left is recongnisably a Chosokabe TeYari Samurai, while on the right, it's hard to tell wether the NoDachi dude is Uesugi or Tokugawa :


Arrows are installed, are some new ones in store?

[Ujio]

hm,could it be that you really want to publish the beta at christmas?

[GiantMonkeyMan]

hm,could it be that you really want to publish the beta at christmas?

its just an old EB tactic of confusing the drooling fans by discussing secret things on a public forum... now post some screens

and i think that the Chosokabe are decidedly ugly looking

[Ujio]

how terrible!

[Helgi]

Couldn't care less if the Takeda are ugly or nice looking, in Shogun and in the MTW version, I've always played Takeda, though I may try Date, Tokugawa or Asai after I finish playing the Takeda

[Serene]

Just checked in to see if there were any surprise screens... Based purely on their uniforms, my preference is for the Ouchi, the Tokugawa and the Takeda (in that order). I am not sure, however, that I will be playing the Ouchi first (or at all) ...

[Zanderpants]

Hmph! How dare you discuss which faction's armor is prettiest, as if it mattered! Any honorable daimyo would play as Takeda! Your frilly, lacy, Chosokabe armor will not stop my yari cavalryman from killing you!!!

[Vlad The Impaler]

takeda and mori are resembling too much

[Yun Dog]

The first game of stw I played as Shimazu - so its the jolly greens or bust

[Seijitai]

takeda and mori are resembling too much

There have been many evolutions on the units graphic display since that picture from Tomte. The general layout of the units is respected but there is no risk of confusion at all in the battle map I will try to upload a screenshot in the beginning of next week...

By the way, my preferences : Hosokawa and Asai...

[Vlad The Impaler]

hehe, good to hear that.

I like Satomi, Tokugawa an Mori

Next week you say? so there is no chance for a release this month

[Seijitai]

We have a building modeller only since last week... And he'll have several weeks of work on the buildings... So, no release this month for sure...

[Ujio1710]

argh,I think I should take some lessons in 3dmoddelling to get this mod finished...but I have no time

[Eufarius]

oh man if forgot the name!!! ahhh

[microhenry]

which faction starts with the least amount of land/provinces? I rate starting out tiny then slowly expanding through the whole of the map and annihilating everyone

[Kagemusha]

There will be bunch of clans with only one starting province.And some of those are even surrounded by larger clans.Wellcome to the forums microhenry!

[microhenry]

awesome :) will each faction have its own sort of "uber" unit? like urban cohort in RTW or Spartans etc... Getting powerful and rich enoough to have an army of those sure did make for some good battles
