Not at all, good sir. Camels are God's most beautiful creatures, and we should be glad they were put on this earth for us to worship & admire. Greetings everyone

Hi to everyone,
new to S2TW and all these strategy games. Loving it for now although struggling a little in my first SP campaign with the Shimazu. :( Have played the tutorials and in the campaign I've made quite a lot of errors or bad decisions that have took me to own 6 provinces but no allies, no trade agreements and only 1 trade node. Diplomacy is not working because i have everybody against me. Thinking about starting the campaign again.
Regards

Welcome Arekkusu
Thank you all for the warm welcome 
I have already printed Frogbeastegg's guide, and Peasant Phil's Absolute beginners guide, both which are really great and I have also been reading lot's of posts about campaigns (not only Shimazu) but this will take time because I'm totally new in these strategy games. I did play a little bit of Company of Heroes, Men of War, RUSE and even Warcraft very long ago but this it the first title of CA i've tried and I really love it. I don't remember playing so much hours of the same game in one session.
Will try to update my campaign in the Tea House subforum.
Regards
Arekkusu (Aka Alex)

Welcome Arekkusu! Don't worry, you will get the hang of Shogun 2s campaign. Have fun during your learning process, that's part of the enjoyment of the game! :)

Hello,
did anybody try to run shogun 2 on a p4 2.8c? I won't be able to upgrade until next year. I'll test the demo as soon as I'll get my psu replaced. I know the requirements and searched the web. Actually I even don't bother if it doesn't work. It was just a question. I hope I did not offend anybody.
I was a coward back then (2000 stw, later mtw) not to engage in online multiplayer. I played the stw demo before the game came out and couldn't wait the months to pass. I bought stw the first day it appeared in the stores but skipped anything since mtw. CA can't get me to play a game by just providing good, very good, impressive, top notch or whatsoever graphics. It was the brand new idea and game play which made me embrace stw. I would like to try shogun2 online. I'm not interested in single player campaigns anymore. (the KI is just too challenging ;))
I forgot my old accout because I used it only a few times. It was either civilian or roman or sth. like that. I already searched the members and there must have been a deletion or sth. because there is no civilian anymore and the existing roman user isn't me. Roman was not taken in 2000.
You have been my 1st place to look for information back in the days and i want to thank you a lot for the good old guides.
I'm glad that totalwar.org is still going strong.

Welcome back DeadMan,
Like you suggested yourself: run the demo. If it works, then so will the full game.

Thank you Peasant Phill!
Just read your sig: So Frogbeastegg is still writing guides. Wow!
Nice crash course!
I've read about the ddos attack problem in mp. I think that the best thing to avoid hackers and cheaters is to have a community like this one, where you know and trust each other. I'm looking forward to get to know some of you. Hopefully not in one year, when I'll buy a better comp.
Is anyone here also in F|H? (a FPS community focused on Battlefield 2 mods, especially Forgotten Hope and Project Reality but also other games www.forgottenhonor.com) Some of them have started playing RTW a few months ago.

Welcome (back) DeadMan
Don't know if this helps, but I run the game on a 3,5 yr old PC with an ATI Radeon HD4850 (512 MB) graphics card on high settings and it runs very smooth (Processor - AMD Athlon Dual Core 3,20 GHz; 4 Gb RAM).
The MP section for TW:S2 is right HERE, maybe you'll find some old friends over there (or make some new).

Thank you Andres,
unfortunately I didn't play any TW title online yet and I was part of the "silent majority" so I do know what some ppl here have done for the community and who they are, but nobody knows me. I promise to contribute this time.

Welcome Sacred Band
With all the fuss about FoTS, I picked up one of my old Chosokabe campaigns today and I'm really enjoying it again.
The first time you hit Realm Divide, it's very hard to overcome it, since it comes as a surprise and you're not really prepared for it. You'll fare better next time

Welcome Sacred Band. Playing as Uesugi currently myself. Shogun 2 is a great game and should provide you with hours of enjoyment. Have some fun conquering Japan as the clan of your choice next time!
Welcome to the Org, Sacred Band! Glad to have you with us. 
I've been resisting my utmost to pick up Shogun 2, but it's been increasingly difficult this last year.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. Just reloaded an older save and took more cautios approach. RD really makes the end game challenging. Oda and Hattori acting as a buffer to the Takeda-Hojo mega alliance while spamming ninjas and metsuke, Hojo having impossible amounts of ships like 10 full stacks and Takeda sending veteran samurai armies knocking my door ( 3 heroic victories in row )
