What is Sekigahara: The Unification of Japan
The battle of Sekigahara, fought in 1600 at a crossroads in Japan, unified that nation under the Tokugawa family for more than 250 years.
Sekigahara allows you to re-contest that war as Ishida Mitsunari, defender of a child heir, or Tokugawa Ieyasu, Japan's most powerful daimyo (feudal lord).
The campaign lasted only 7 weeks, during which each side improvised an army and a strategy with what forces their allies could provide. Each leader harbored deep doubts as to the loyalty of his units - for good reason. Several daimyo refused to fight; some even turned sides in the midst of battle.
To conquer Japan you must do more than field an army - you must be sure it will follow you into combat. Cultivate the loyalty of your allies and deploy them only when you are confident of their allegiance. Win a battle by gaining a defection from the ranks of your opponent.

There's a lot of feelings with this game, all of them positives What I liked the most was the combat system. It includes a bunch of things from other games that you are glad to have in there. When you are ready for combat, you must show troop cards, depending on the symbol (mon) you got to deploy one of your blocks. The quantity of symbols you block has is the number of hits you accumulate on the combat score track. Since there's the concept of fog of war, blocks are totally hidden to your opponent. So bluffing it's highly present in this game, unless your rival has a good mind You feel the
