The year is 1530. For two hundred years the Ashikaga Shogunate has ruled Japan from their capital in Kyōto. The recent Ōnin War had shown that they no longer have the power to control Japan's great clans. The time has come for a new warrior to claim the title of Shōgun. Japan is divided between ruthless warlords. Armies grow stronger, only to be depleted in the frequent vicious battles that give this era its deserving name: Sengoku Jidai - The Age of the Country at War. Year after year the endless plains that divide the clans' territories are stained with the blood of thousands of brave samurai fighting for their liege-lord, and for their honour. When necessary, accept help from others not of our lands. Gaijin can be useful pawns in your campaign as they bring guns from overseas. If they become a nuisance they should be expelled from our shores or even eliminated. When there is no other way, assassination can be instrumental in gaining victory. Even a general, who is invincible in battle, is as vulnerable as a child when asleep. Use the men of the shadows for they excel in the deliverance of death by night. No one is untouchable. Honour is everything to samurai. A man who loses face in his honour must then also lose his head. This is bushidō: the way of the warrior. Follow these rules of wisdom that have been handed down through generations and your victory will be complete. Japan can be ruled completely by only one man: a great warrior, general and strategist. To become Shōgun will require battles to be won with the mind as well as the sword. Now is your time! Let total war begin!

I love that after talking about assassination, they suddenly go on about how honor is everything to a samurai
@LordVader1094

@@Hell_O7 It is. For samurai, victory was honourable no matter how you acquired it. Failure and defeat was dishonourable. Assassination was not dishonourable to them. They weren't fools who avoided tools and tactics that could bring survival and victory. "Honour" was not the same fanciful concept we hear of today that arbitrarily decides what way of taking someone's life is "better". It doesn't truly matter if you're killing someone with a knife while they sleep, with the same knife on the battlefield, or shooting them with a musket. Because you're killing them regardless.

My best memory of this game was winning a battle with only 1 person dying in the battlefield. I have 1 unit samurai archers. Set up on top of a hill. Enemy unit was 2 ashigaru. First volley of arrows killed the general only. They retreated and I won the battle lol.

Fantastic intro, best of the total.war series. The end bit where is says let total.war begin needs to be in every game. CA has gone down hill in recent years. The quality and feel of their games has plummeted. Lets hope they return to their old ways or the Total War games are finished.
