EA Announces Shogun Total War Warlord Edition
Let the battle begin! Feudal Japan is under attack from invading Mongol hordes in Shogun: Total War™ Warlord Edition for the PC, the successor to the highly acclaimed real-time strategy game

Description

Shogun: Total War Warlord Edition will offer a new enemy that threatens to destroy the country, an array of new and improved features as well as reintroduce players to the original Shogun title that delivered a revolutionary style of gameplay through its epic size battles. The title will allow players to take command of thousands of warriors, each with his own unique Artificial Intelligence (AI) and fighting characteristics to unify Japan under his own powerful warlord. Players will take on the role of a sixteenth Century Japanese general – the Daimyo (clan leader) – leading and controlling massive real-life clans, each with its own characteristics. Shogun: Total War Warlord Edition stays true to the inspirational writings of the mysterious warrior-philosopher Sun Tzu, author of the seminal book on strategy, The Art of War. Unlike any game to date, Shogun: Total Warlord Edition utilizes more than 300 rules taken from Sun Tzu’s work to ensure accurate and unpredictable AI character behavior and reaction.
