Total War Saga: FALL OF THE SAMURAI – The Saga Faction Pack (DLC)

This DLC is for players who already own Fall of the Samurai and want to try something different. The Saga faction used to be available only with the Limited Edition, and now you can get it on its own. Playing as a clan that has traded with foreigners for centuries changes the whole feel of the campaign. The highlights: - The first hours go into Nagasaki, the port that gives you Western contacts and a strong economy to start from. - The faction plays noticeably differently from the usual clans: the artillery and industry bonuses push you to build your army another way. - Engineering cuts ship costs, so naval operations become much easier to afford. - The pack works in single-player campaigns, multiplayer, and custom battles.

The Nabeshima did well by being sensible enough to join the Tokugawa cause while there was still some doubt over the result. They did not wait until the Battle of Sekigahara to decide where their true loyalties lay. The domain includes the port of Nagasaki, a valuable resource for any daimyo. It is here that Japan has its only official trade with the West, and it is here that interesting ideas arrive in the country. Perhaps this knowledge of the harshness of the outside world is what has convinced the Nabeshima to throw their weight behind the Imperial Court rather than the Shogun. The Nabeshima clan can rely on a few advantages in the coming struggle: they have Western connections and trade that is far ahead of any other domain. In turn, this learning allows them to be artillery experts, and have good shipbuilding and industrial facilities. The modern world has much to offer to those who would embrace it. Interestingly, the historical Nabeshima Mochizuru eventually resigned his position and left Japan to study in England.
