The second new campaign came in the form of a stand-alone expansion, Fall of the Samurai, which depicts the Boshin War of the 1860s between the Tokugawa Shogunate of Edo and the resurgent Imperial Court in Kyoto.
The religion mechanic has been adapted to "influence" of the three major families which will be a core mechanic to deal with constantly, since Junsatsushi agents can convert provinces with a majority of influence aligned to your family without a fight - especially helpful with the war certainly occupying your troops elsewhere. Unlike the basic game, the major clans are split among three families and the igniting event of the conflict will occur (Emperor Takakura is pressured to abdicate by the Taira and his toddler grandson Antoku is placed on the throne), setting off war between the three families and probably their aligned minor clans with them - the pressures of this war will create an emphasis on the usage of agents to aid your cause without even more fighting. The first, Rise of the Samurai, is set during the Genpei War of the late 12th century, which led to the decline of the Chinese-influenced Imperial Court, the rise of the first shogunate and the dominance of the Samurai class in Japanese society. Two expansion packs were produced, introducing new campaigns to the game. Starting in the 1540s, the player takes control of one of the powerful clans struggling for superiority in Japan, with the eventual goal of uniting Japan under a new shogunate. As a sequel/remake of the very first game of the series, Shogun: Total War, the setting returns to Feudal Japan and the Sengoku Period of civil war. Like its predecessors, it features a mixture of turn-based strategy on a campaign map and real-time tactical battles. Original pieces of the period still retain the “proof” dents from successfully keeping out a bullet.Total War: Shogun 2 is the seventh full installment in the popular Total War series of strategy games. Like European armourers, Japanese smiths would prove their wares by firing bullets at it. Leather layers in armour had been enough to protect against arrows, but bullets demanded new standards for armour. Samurai armour was, and is, renowned for its beauty and intricate designs but, as warfare changed following the introduction of muskets, beautiful workmanship had to evolve. Their spears also make them a formidable force against cavalrymen. However, their strength and offensive spirit more than makes up for that shortcoming: they really can charge musketeers with a good chance of success. Their heavy armour can keep out many bullets, but it makes them slow moving.
Heavily armoured and highly trained, these spearmen are able to withstand enemy musketry and keep going forwards. Date Bulletproof Samurai It takes true samurai to charge into musket fire – and prevail!
