Is Fall of the Samurai worth the $6 if I'm feeling a little burnt out on the Japan setting? I really should finish a game of Rise first since I've already paid for it but Tommofork posted:Also Fall of the Samurai has the ugliest unit pictures. I miss colours other than brown. Can't be as ugly as some of the menu and background textures a lot of the mods use.

Out of curiosity, does the AI perform better if its being led by a higher starred general? VVVVV Yeah, I know that they get better morale and bonuses. What I should've asked is that if they get "smarter" VVVVV Ragingsheep fucked around with this message at 12:47 on Mar 26, 2013 |

You could have a whole bunch of tribes in the East and have mechanics simulating the rise of the Huns and the flood of refugees westwards.

Games in Australia used to cost $100 when the exchange was 1AUD to 0.50USD. At least with digital distribution, its now easier to bypass regional based markups. Why do I need to wait half a year for this game to come out?

DrankSinatra posted:I'm playing Shogun 2, and it is really cool. I don't quite understand how to use cavalry, though. I get that you should charge enemy units, and not let them get into melees, but I have trouble getting them to disengage and regroup. Ideally, you should also tie down the enemy unit with a unit of spearmen or something else.

Koramei posted:They had dudeless traction catapults in Shogun 2, I don't think that's the problem really. Not being able to knock down walls would also make siege battles tedious as all hell and even worse for the AI. In historical terms, a lot of Chinese sieges just involved the attackers diverting a nearby river to flood the city.

Sieges in ancient China were about diverting a river and using them to flood a city so that would be cool to see.

ZearothK posted:I think the idea for Saga is to make it a smaller game based on an existing engine (they specifically mentioned Attila to Rome 2, Napoleon to Empire and Fall of the Samurai to Shogun 2 as titles that would fit under the Saga nomenclature), so I imagine the next one will be somehow related to Three Kingdoms' base, so probably an east Asian - and likely Chinese - theatre. Could do the Mongol invasion. The Warring States is another choice with a smaller map geographic wise but that might be a bit too similar to 3K in terms of gameplay.
