New naval Q&A blog online!

[CraigTW]

Hi all,

We've blown the doors of our Japanese bune right off to give you guys exclusive information on the naval combat in Shogun 2, thanks to a brand new Q&A with Total War designers Gabor Beressy and Jamie Ferguson.

Even the press haven't had this much detail, so enjoy!

You can check the blog out by clicking this link.

The fact that there are european ships in the game does not necessarily mean there are european factions involved for things other then trade. In the begining of the 17th century the japanese started to build their own "european style" ships.

Ooooh. You have wet my appetite with this. As with the other guys, you have set me up for wanting a sneak peak at some naval warfare.

This means we have Fog, Snow, Rain and Night time battles.

For some reason I got all excited imagining ships boarding eachother in the moonlight, with gun/canon fire illuminating the samurai as they do battle.

Nice! This was some interesting information! Hopefully, we will soon get to see some gameplay videos.
