Will you:

The choice is yours. The Total War: SHOGUN 2 journey begins...

The Prophet presents you with a shrouded vision:

Your advisors, a council of wise and aged samurai, gather around you. They urge caution, reminding you that your Han is small, and the Uesugi, though weakened, remain a formidable force. They suggest maintaining the status quo, continuing to serve the Uesugi and biding your time.

As you stand on the battlements of your humble castle, Akakawa-jo, you gaze out upon the turbulent landscape. The wind carries the whispers of war, and rumors spread of a rising star: the Takeda clan, led by the fearsome Lord Shingen. Their legendary cavalry, the "Takeda Storm," has already swept across the provinces, leaving destruction in its wake.
