Sengoku Jidai - Turn-based strategy war-game

I thought this looked cool. I saw a beta version of it on a youtube let's play.

I think people who enjoy tactical turn based combat would enjoy this.

Sixteenth century East Asia is in turmoil. In Japan, the ruling Shogun family has lost its grip on the country. A civil war is brewing as regional lords actively expand their influence. In Korea, the Joseon dynasty is paralysed by factional struggle within the royal court. In China, the might of the Ming dynasty is waning due to rebellions and foreign incursions. These seemingly separate internal conflicts will pave the way for an international war involving the three countries.

Sengoku Jidai: Shadow of the Shogun is a turn-based tactical and strategic game set during this turbulent time; primarily focusing on the Japanese Warring States period and Japanese Invasion of Korea. Other armies from East Asia are also made available to simulate different conflicts across the region.

Yeah, it looks a bit like some oil canvas.
I think it needs a bit of work to ensure the units are more easily identifiable in combat, but it does look like a fun little game.

It looks like it is based on that board game from the 1980's Shogun. Used to play that a lot back in the day.

Looks very interesting. Thanks for posting!
