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

Thank you...

It uses Slitherine's online multiplayer system so I would imagine everything is playable in MP? I saw on the Steam forum that you could play hotseat using their MP system.

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!

I was kind of getting an Age of Rifles vibe when I was playing through the tutorial.  :smitten:

This system an go in many different directions...my choice would be medieval, Dark Age or 19th century age of imperialism.

Yeah, but that's mostly from the Lagavulin 16 I'm having right now.

Bought the Collector's Edition of the game along with Pike and Shot: Campaigns. Just played around with both for a little while and I'm very impressed with what I've seen so far.

Got lucky as I had a coupon for Matrix Games and saved almost 40% on both games.

I picked up the collector's edition and am glad I did, really enjoying the ebooks that come with it as good background for the time period, especially the Empires of the Dragon one which has alot of historical factions from Asia that I was not familiar with  O0

Finally found the time to grab this yesterday. Very, very impressed, both by the look of the game and the changes/improvements to the engine. I suspect this will get a lot of play this weekend.


I really, really hope we're going to see a back port of the changes into Pike & Shot. The addition of leaders and command factors is exactly what I've always thought was missing from the earlier game. I'd have much rather seen those added than the campaign system. Now that I've seen them in Sengoku Jidai it really feels like P&S is just...broken.


This engine is now a really great engine for ancients up through early modern, and I hope we'll see it expanded to cover other eras.

I got it also, even though I dont like Japan/ Asian setting, bought it originally because I love P&S and also to support Matrix as usual, but turn out I start to like the setting due to this great engine.
I hope as many said that they will do different historic eras for their next game, the system is just amazing.
