Building temples, upgrading buildings and stationing units there.

well, here are the pros and cons as i see it:
pros: - excellent graphics (although some feel everything look too colourful and shinny) - plenty of motion captured fights - great japanese style - well optimized game engine (compared to empire) - multiplayer avatar conquest is interesting
cons: - battle is too fast paced and less tactical (feels more arcade-ish than strategic) - campaign map is too narrowly focused, japan alone simply do not give u the proper feel of a GRAND campaign that empire does - multiplayer matchmaking does not work properly (and there are too few low levels so a new player has a very very good chance of getting matched with a high level) - they've also disabled the ladder afaik cuz of all the bugs - lack of modding support for total conversion mods
get the game if you: - love total war games - prefer sword fights over muskets - want the latest graphics OR love the japanese setting - you are okay with the smaller scope of the game - you play multiplayer for fun and not for ladder e-penis
