I was thinking the same thing awhile back. 

Should be titled "Sengoku Jidai" instead of 'That Random Upcoming Samurai Game'.  C:-)


Thought about making a new thread, but there is a lot of posts in this one already.

I took the collector's edition.

Congrats Jomni.

It's on my hit list.

Congrats from me too, good job! :)

How many MP scenarios are included in the game?

The artistic representation is great.  Love the period-inspired look to the whole game.

I've only played a couple battles thus far, one being the first Tutorial, so I've not even experienced much of the content yet.  But the different armies, units, and their evolving make-up over time, is interesting.  The addition of Generals, and their subordinate divisions, is also great.  Looking forward to the campaigns.

Everything has been running perfectly thus far.  I had to set my laptop's Nvidia card to be the primary video processor manually, as opposed to it's other Intel HD4000.  The mouse cursor was just a but sluggish until I did.  But it's often like that with 2D games, and people with that type of dual video notebook should already know to check which card a new game is using & turn it on manually if needed.

Request:
All I would ask for is some noticeable indicator (such as a small colored dot next to the troop type symbol?  Or different colored facing arrow?) specifying which units still have either half their AP left, or enough to move one space of Open Terrain.  It's difficult to make out the little white facing arrows on the tan terrain, but those also don't specifically differentiate between units with only 2 AP left (not enough to do much of anything) and those with 4 or 5+.  Instead of a visual indicator, I find myself using the Tab hotkey to cycle through those who haven't moved.  Which means I end up cycling through the lot of them numerous times, and mentally re-orient my overall strategy after the map jumps.  I guess I'm saying that I prefer to move the map around & survey the overall battlefield "picture" while activating units, as opposed to cycling through them with the map jumping around.  Not a big deal.. just a convenience request.




Congratulations on a good-looking and enjoyable wargame, Jomni!  I'm digging it.   O0


Next Period?
I wonder where the Pike & Shot/Sengoku Jidai engine (with campaign system) will go next?  I'd really like to see the same treatment given to the Greco-Roman period *hint hint nod nod*.   ^-^  Since the system's focus tends to be on the evolution of historical troop types through certain periods, that has to be high on the hit list!

Agree with all the positive comments so far. Very good stuff.

One thing I would like to see is a more obvious graphic indicator of unit condition and strength. As a unit takes casualties, I'd like to see the physical size of the unit get smaller. As it gets disorganized or fragmented, I'd like to see that visually represented, as well, instead of just an "F" and a "D" displayed on top of the unit.  Finally, I doubt we'll ever see it, but how about some bodies on the map tiles after combat?

Bought the basic set. I don't understand what some of the DLC are (pdf rules for tabletop field of glory, I guess??) Will strongly consider the other campaign DLC once I've played this a little.

I was thinking the same...would be just awesome.

No ... please medieval or dark ages.

Sorry, anyone able to give me an answer to may question regarding the number of MP scens in the game?

Thank you...
