A couple of points if I may - Matsudaira were Tokugawa. Ieiasu was born Matsudaira Takechiyo and was a son of Imagawa Yoshimoto's vassal (Matsudaira were relatively weak). His adult name was a gift from Yoshimoto himself (Motoyasu - "peacemaker"). Motoyasu changed his name to Tokugawa Ieiasu (with imperial court's approval) in 1566.
The Hattori were not really a part of the Matsudaira, except for Hanzo (the most famous Hattori, incidentally) who was Matsudaira's vassal through his father, Yasunaga. Hattori clan's home was mountainous Iga.
I would keep all of them under Imagawa banner and make Tokugawa clan an emergent faction.
The Sanada were quite hard-done by Shingen but they were powerful Shinano daimyos in their own right. I would keep them as a separate clan to stem the expansion of the Takeda.
In general, I would base the campaign map on Nobunaga's Ambition 2 map, which was excellent and generally very close to historical reality.
Good points though! Sorry for being so drastically anal about details but Sengoku history is one of my major interests in life
great ideas guys! i also was wondering how come none of the other TW eras have the throne room like in shogun? i thought that was an awesome concept! i whole heartedly think a Shogun remake would do well!
The difference was in the campaign map in the early games like shogun and medieval(1). Terrain features were not represented and the movement system was province to adjacent province (unless you had built ports, and then you could use them like wormholes to transfer units from the east to the west, and from island to island). The movement system came in for a great deal of criticism because the system was so much like Risk. One needed to develop core provinces for training up high quality units, fortify and monitor border provinces, and, when the time was right, move stacks into one's border provinces to invade an adjacent hostile province - All very Risk-like.
A classic Japanese mod was supposed to be in the works for RTW. I wonder what happened to it. I once saw some graphics, and it looked great.
They should do a 'Showgun II' and a 'City states of Greece' with naval battles and Qin conquest of china game.
showgun was so cool I loved the music and the sound and I totaly miss that old throne room interface was just awesome.
Nah, I think a Rome remake would be best. Shogun second
Advance to Contact. Duffer Mod.
shogun able to play hotseat? =D
I think it has now become clear that Shogun will be remade! Unless this is all an elaborate ruse, ofc.
I can only say that I am overwhelmed with joy. Hope you can join me in congratulating CA on their excellent choice!

Too good to be true
Let's not buy into the hype already eh.
Look at pc.ign.com for a 'mystery trailer' with original shogun music...
