Shogun 2 steam large unit size mod12/24/2022 The base game for Shogun 2 only currently has two clan packs that you can buy and unlock:ĭefinitely the more interesting of the two, the Ikko Ikki faction plays very differently from all the other clans. Shogun 2 is the first instance in which Creative Assembly has charged for the introduction of ‘new’ factions into the main game. Verdict: At £5.99, this is a textbook example of premium DLC – it provides you with a whole new self-contained campaign, with everything that it needs to be entertaining. This is not just a single-player expansion either, as much of the content (mainly units) can be used in online skirmishes and the multiplayer campaign. There are also new naval units, abilities, and agents (although they mostly do the same things as agents in the base game).įinally, you also get a new historical battle – The Battle of Anegawa which was fought in 1570, and is one of the memorable battles in the period covered by the base game. ‘Hero’ units are also included for the first time: from Naginata Warrior Monks to Onna Bushi Heroine (epic lady samurais on horses). You also get firebomb throwers, and a whole host of other weird and wonderful units. Foot Samurai are small but powerful units as they are armed with both a bow and a sword, and they excel in both. With a new era, and new players, comes new units – Rise of the Samurai comes with 16 new land units that serve as precursors to what you get in the main game. Since each family has its own distinct traits, they act and play as ‘clans’ in their own right, and simply share similarities and allegiances with their fellow clan-member faction. ![]() You get to choose between 6 ‘families’ – two for each of the three main warring clans – the Minamoto, the Taira, and the Fujiwara. RotS may require the base game to play, but it’s completely self-contained, using its own version of the main campaign map, its own factions, and its own units. ![]() Rise of the Samurai is Shogun 2’s first (and so far only) mini-campaign, and is set during 12th Century Japan during the ‘Gempai War’ – a conflict that dealt with the rise of the samurai as a ruling class and which resulted in the very first Shogunate.
