Cough.

Although $7.50 is a lovely price for it. I paid full price way back when. They're probably trying to get people to buy it before Fall of the Samurai on Friday.

Grabbed the Rise of the Samurai for 1,74€. Quite a good deal.

It is a phenominal game!

I am loving the ability to use naval bombardment on both the campaign map, and the battle map as well. Never do a battle without a navy close by!

Plus railroads.

A funny thing happened while playing. I blindly mashed the f12 button, which on steam produces a screenshot, this was the result...



I feel...insulted.

NOTE: That is Bitchu with the "u" cut off. It just made me chuckle, as it was spontanious, and unexpected.

If it wasn't cheaper, I'd say its better to pre-order on steam, the bonus is better. Although at least gamestop is not giving away the horrible Obama Clan.


I wish I could pick it up, but I have to wait until next pay check.

I am particularly happy with the stock clans. I was also unable to pre-order, I had to choose this or Crusader Kings.

Alliances actually work, and are super important late game, as the feature we know and love as realm divide happens again, when your "side" reaches a certain strength.

Funny enough though, as bad as the name is, the Obama clan bonuses are one of the better ones.

Hope you enjoy it when you get it.

I wonder what advantages the Obama clan has. Maybe they're more keen on change than the others?

Anyway, I preordered on Gamestop largely because it gave me a 100SEK discount on the game (roughly 14USD).

You can't make this up. Just sayin', not trying to draw parallels.

(be nice, I am)


The Obama clan are famed for their control of power, their strength in governance and ability to influence the will of the people. Staunch defenders of their lands their people gladly suffer the burden of high taxation.

Vote for Tokugawa Shogunate in 2012!

My only wish now, is a Tom Cruise character to kill with a gatling cannon for butchering this time period.
