Steam Store description

Furious melee action against multiple warriors takes place in castles, villages and rice paddies. Vindicate yourself in duels against rivals who would like nothing better then to diminish your Honor. Feel the drama and immediacy of real-time battles involving infantry, cavalry and muskets on battlefields that vary with every conflict. Untie all 48 warring provinces in common allegiance to you, and earn the title of shogun, military ruler of all Japan. Fun and Easy to control!
