In this iteration, you do have to make a judgment on whether you want to grow a certain province. Every iteration of Total War presents a new wrinkle for strategy gamers to wrap themselves around. The turn-based campaign game holds its own. Certain clans also come across gunpowder easier due to the existence ports that have Western visitors so if your battle tactics require you to have gunpowder, you’d best steer yourselves to those clans.Shogun continues to provide two very compelling games. You don’t particularly want to be sandwiched in the middle with no access to the sea. Personally, I felt the harder task was choosing a clan that had defensible territory. The clans, of which I’m not personally familiar with, grant certain bonuses either to a certain unit such as superior katana wielding samurai or all naval units.
This is, after all, still Japan and not pitting gunpowder troops on mameluke camels. Unlike recent Total War games, the return to Shogun means more homogeneity amongst all the sides. But with the map of Japan divided into sixty provinces, the developers have applied a lot of lessons from previous franchises to give us a focused campaign set during the time of the samurai. Given that Total War’s scope kept increasing since the Rome edition, Total War: Shogun 2’s revisiting of Japan might feel like a reboot of the franchise.
