Specifically developed for touchscreen platforms, Total War Battles™: SHOGUN is a new real-time strategy game from the makers of the award-winning Total War series. Total War Battles™ delivers quick-fire, tactical combat balanced with intuitive building and unit management. All set in a beautifully illustrated Medieval Japan. “This high-quality production dramatically streamlines the RTS genre for mobile play, while making sure it's packed with enough tactical depth to make its many skirmishes tense and exciting” PocketGamer.com – 90% Gold Award “A refreshing change from the App Store's barrage of angry avians, physics-based puzzler and match-3 games.” TouchArcade – 4/5 “Total War Battles is a surprisingly beautiful and engaging mix of war gaming and puzzles.” Slide To Play – 4/4 1. COMPETE FOR THE SUPREMACY OF MEDIEVAL JAPAN Lead your clan to battle through more than 10 hours of story-driven campaign set in the world of Total War™: SHOGUN 2; winner of “Best Strategy Game of 2011” awards from Gamespot, IGN, Gamespy and GameTrailers. 2. BUILD YOUR ECONOMY Deploy and manage your bases to generate resources and recruit units including samurai, archers, ninjas and cavalry. Each victory awards XP to spend on building and troop upgrades that could make a decisive difference to your future battles. 3. A UNIQUE TAKE ON REAL-TIME BATTLES Total War Battles™ introduces a new real-time battle system that feels both familiar and fresh. The hex battle maps allow for natural unit movements and deep strategy. However, as followers of the “Bushido” code of conduct, your units can never turn back – this twist to classic RTS gameplay adds tension and intensity to the action, making each victory even more rewarding. 4. DESIGNED FOR TOUCHSCREENS Introducing an interface designed specifically for touchscreens – drag and drop buildings and troops, swipe across the battle map with a flick, and pinch to zoom in and out. 5. 1Vs1 LOCAL MULTIPLAYER Play against a friend in real-time on a single device in three different multiplayer modes. 6. SKIRMISH MODE Play through six standalone battles in Normal, Hard or Shogun difficulty. Compete against other players on the leaderboards and unlock new Skirmish achievements. 7. STRATEGY FOR ALL Total War™ fans will naturally enjoy the intense, deep and rewarding action-strategy gameplay, while more casual strategy fans will appreciate the Zen simplicity of the opening tutorial battles, scalable difficulty level and hint system that will soon make them a tactical master. 8. UNIVERSAL APP This iOS app is designed to scale its appearance for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad, which means Total War Battles™ takes complete advantage of the iOS device that it's installed on. - - - - - Privacy Policy: http://www.sega.com/mprivacy Terms of Use: http://www.sega.com/terms © SEGA.

Sounds ok in theory but I'm a bit cautious about this new system. Gotta see it in action.

Only pass-and-play multiplayer is a little lame, but this looks amazing. Loved TW back when I was addicted to PC RTS games. Ayjona Well-Known Member Sep 8, 2009 3,295 21 38 Freelance journalist and writer, amateur musician Stockholm, Sweden #9 Ayjona, Apr 18, 2012 While I've yet to try the game, I can pretty much vouch for that if it is indeed good, I will want to play it online. So, here's to a very premature hope for online multiplayer. GeekyDad Well-Known Member Jan 14, 2012 1,173 0 0 Games Journalist #10 GeekyDad, Apr 18, 2012 Very excited to see how this one turns out, but I'm a bit confused. It's an RTS, yet it has hex-graph maps like a TBS game. Either way, looks cool. Will wait for a sale. eugekava Well-Known Member Jul 8, 2009 2,707 0 36 Melbourne, Australia #11 eugekava, Apr 18, 2012 Love total war series. Currently playing Napoleon expansion on PC. Devs are notorious for releasing buggy games though. Will wait for impressions. strivemind Well-Known Member Aug 11, 2010 2,784 2 38 Designer Ottawa, Canada http://www.strivemind.com/ #12 strivemind, Apr 18, 2012 Hoping this will be a fantastic TBS. I could never get into the long Total War PC titles, but this looks right up my alley. LBG Señor Member Apr 19, 2009 7,471 1 0 nada ilegal 31.560499, -111.904128 #13 LBG, Apr 18, 2012 Looks good. This is the first new iOS game I've seen in weeks that interests me. dalbertson Well-Known Member Jan 25, 2011 485 2 18 #14 dalbertson, Apr 18, 2012 Quick, someone light the Sanuku Signal, we definitely need some video on this one. slikaroo Well-Known Member Dec 14, 2011 130 0 0 #15 slikaroo, Apr 18, 2012 This is bad news for my IB2.

I'm still interested as it's Total War but I'll be curious to see just how far it has been stripped back or changed before I buy the smash button. devensega Well-Known Member Feb 28, 2011 621 0 0 #18 devensega, Apr 18, 2012 Yeh, this is not the Total War we were looking for. I will probably buy though, I have enjoyed all their other games, even the action ones. visionwebs Well-Known Member Jan 24, 2012 1,144 0 0 #19 visionwebs, Apr 18, 2012 Well the developers said this is command and conquer plus plants vs zombies. twiccan Well-Known Member Feb 16, 2010 72 0 6 #20 twiccan, Apr 18, 2012 Not gettin' it. Why won't they just make a turn based game with all the depth of the strategy part of the PC titles? They can simplify the actual combat all they want, but this game is almost a slap in the face to long time TW fans. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
