Release Date: March 15, 2011
Seventh main installment in the popular series of strategic games and the sequel to Shogun: Total War. Once again, the action takes place in the 16th century in feudal Japan. You take control of one of the clans and begin making efforts to be honored with the privilege of ruling the whole country as the new shogun. To accomplish that goal you need to manage diplomacy, military operations and economical development of your territories.
Total War: Shogun 2 is an epic strategy game created by Creative Assembly. It continues the tradition of the series by combining turn-based strategy with tactical battles in real time.
The action takes place in the 16th-century Japan, in feudal era when the country was torn apart by clans fighting with each other. You become one of ten Daimyo (clan leaders) who all want to rule the entire Japan as a new shogun.
In order to accomplish that goal you need to take care of diplomacy, economy and war. Statistics of your generals and units in armies are improving with your progress in conquering the realm. What’s important, there are complex tutorials for each aspect of the game so that even amateurs can quickly learn basics and start playing.
Veterans will appreciate the fact that an AI system was created from scratch and it is now based on Sun Tzu’s The Art of War. Real time battles are even more realistic than in previous Total War games. Up to 56 thousand units can be displayed on map at the same time. The weather may have a significant impact on the battlefields. Sieges are split into several stages and give many options, such as setting fire to buildings in order to flush out hostile troops hiding inside. Also the naval battles have been improved. It is now possible, for instance, to fight by the shore; it allows to hide fleets behind isles or to set traps for enemy ships on shallows.
You can play the campaign alone or with a friend. In the second case you can fight with each other or forces against AI. Also the multiplayer mode has been enhanced. Before you start playing, you need to create your general (an avatar). As you make progress in matches, he collects experience points which can be spent to improve his skills. The centre of the multiplayer mode is presented in the form of a strategic map divided into several regions. Victories in each section give access to specific special abilities and new units. Up to 8 players can take part in online matches. s’ accomplishments are also marked in leaderboards.

The highly popular series of strategy games by British studio Creative Assembly. The series Total War successfully combines elements of turn-based strategy, based on resource management, as well as tactical battles fought in real time. Since 2005, the series has been under the publishing supervision of Sega. In 2010 it was decided to make a change in the naming of the series, making its main element a member of the Total War, previously being only a subtitle.
Total War: Pharaoh is the only part of the series not discounted in the Autums sale on Steam, but the game was already attracting fewer players than Shogun 2 and Three Kingdoms, among others, before it began.

A standalone expansion for Total War: SHOGUN 2 strategy game and a part of the Total War series by Creative Assembly. The add-on offers a new campaign set in the Empire of Japan in times of the civil war between the Emperor’s ers and the last shogunate. The player can side with either faction, each of which is represented by six families. At the same time, it is a conflict between the traditional Japanese samurai culture and the modern firearms-based army. Technological advancement of our faction and the available units are largely dependent on our relations with overseas superpowers. Total War: SHOGUN 2 - Fall Of The Samurai offers an expanded campaign map, railway transportation, additional units and agents, and a new kind of battle: port siege. The introduction of firearms, especially the Gatling gun, is also a great innovation. Apart from the aforementioned campaign, the expansion comes with 4 historical battles and an updated multiplayer mode.
