Ota san, I recently bought the game Shogun and am playing with zeal and fun, but......... though only a beginner I find it ridiculously easy to kill off the enemy clan leaders or heirs when they are on the field of battle. It seems they always fight way up front in the ranks (or dash in to get there) and are the last to leave the fray. It is actually easier to let them come to you then try to go around with cavalry or the likes and be "subtle". For a game boosting about being riddles with Sun Tzu this bothers me since clan resistance can crumble all to swiftly this way. No grueling campaigns till the last castle in this game then?? I am also astonished by the rash attacks the AI sometimes sets up, even though he hasn't the position and/or men for it. Again, major friction with Sun Tzu and a too swift an end to battles and campaigns. I haven't played "real hard" yet, but so far.....I guess humans still reign supreme. These days software houses update their games and remedy small, or bigger, problems by placing patches on the web. You know if EA has done this yet, or will do so soon?
