Shogun: Total War is the first of Creative Assembly's "Total War" series. It is a history-based grand strategy computer game that combines turn-based city building with real-time battles. The player assumes the role of one of eight daimyos attempting to unite feudal Japan during the Sengoku period ("The Age of the Country at War") and become shogun. Sun Tzu's The Art of War is central to the game; its precepts are quoted often and its strategies recommended.
It was followed by the Mongol Invasion expansion which added a Mongol campaign, played as either the invaders or as Japan. The Total War series has been continued with Medieval: Total War and Rome: Total War.
