Overview and Gameplay
Sengoku Japan is divided among rival daimyos, and the player must turn one clan into the ruler of the whole country. This strategy simulation expands Koei’s Nobunaga series with culture, technology, tea items, rifles, warships, officer management, diplomacy, domestic development, and seasonal resource planning.
Controls And Mechanics
- Play is turn-based, driven by menus, maps, state data, monthly command points, and officer assignments.
- States track gold, rice, soldiers, loyalty, training, castle defense, agriculture, commerce, culture, rifles, and water safety.
- Generals have politics, combat, charm, ambition, loyalty, and education ratings that shape administration and warfare.
- Battles use field and castle maps with infantry, cavalry, rifle units, provisions, weather, terrain, surrender, retreat, and reinforcements.
- Local multiplayer uses alternating turns for rival human daimyos.
