In the darkest age of Japan, endless war leaves a country divided. It is the middle of the 16th Century in Feudal Japan. The country, once ruled by a unified government, is now split into many warring clans. Ten legendary warlords strive for supremacy as conspiracies and conflicts wither the empire.

Take on the role of one Daimyo, the clan leader, and use military engagements, economics and diplomacy to achieve the ultimate goal: re-unite Japan under his supreme command and become the new Shogun – the undisputed ruler of a pacified nation.

Best Total War entry since Medieval II, probably up to the fairly recent Warhammer (at the moment of writing).
Entry threshold is not too steep, it's easy to dive right into the enjoyable experience. However, it's much deeper than it looks on the surface. This is the case of "easy to learn, hard to master".
One of the best Total War games there is. If you like samurai warfare this is a no brainer. Even though it's an old game it holds up surprisingly good.
Amazing game! Though i don't really enjoy the campaign, i really love the custom mode. Great game if you like making your own battles and armies (even small fleets!)
wanna conqueror japan? this game got you. wanna control pussies and make them alpha? this game got you. i have around 100 hours in the first week this game is really enjoyable but also makes you think a lot
The game itself is a superb experience, too bad that the multiplayer community is almost "dead" the solo compains for the main game and both extentions are a treat though, I recommand the game and it's expansions to anyone who is fond of the genre.
The game is great, too bad the multiplayer is dead the solo campaigns are damn good, I recommend the game and it's expansions to anyone in love with total war.
To me this is one of the best total war there is !
