The game features voice actors from the Soul Calibur Series as well as the Final Fantasy X (The names in the parentheses are the names of the characters in Devil Kings and the names of their American voice actors, respectively).
The sequel to Sengoku Basara was released in Japan on July 27, 2006.
In Sengoku Basara 2, certain characters such as Motonari and Mitsuhide are able to attack their own soldiers (the attacks will do no damage however) due to their characterization (Motonari being uncaring and pragmatic and Mitsuhide being sadistic and insane).

 Kikizo Games: PSP Review: Sengoku Cannon
Three years later, the sequel, Sengoku Ace Episode 2, landed in Japanese arcades, continuing the celestial samurai and shogun shooting theme but shifting the action to a side-scrolling viewpoint instead of remaining a vertically scrolling shooter like the original.
The setting of Sengoku Cannon is once again the skies of ancient Japan where players can initially take control of one of four available warriors, with two additional playable characters becoming unlocked after completing the game.
Overall, While Sengoku Cannon isn't the PSP's first shooter, it has the honor of being the first horizontal scrolling shooter released for the unit and is a bit of a disappointment considering the game's potential.

The graphics are a great improvement from that of the prequels of Sengoku and Sengoku II.
In fact, the way the characters and background was modeled in the prequels were the more or less the same, which makes the graphics in Sengoku 3 not only stand out from the past...

 Samurai: The Great Warlords of the "Sengoku"
In Europe, armour evolved in response to the changing nature of warfare; in Japan, despite an ongoing distancing from the style of warfare dominated by a mounted archer nobility and an ever-increasing diversification within the field armies, there is no overwhelming "evolutionary" pressure to simplify the harness (gusoku), save for practicality, cost, and supply.
The overture to the Sengoku would place hitherto unseen demands on the armourers' craft and the nobility's purse owing to the extended time in the field and the increase in the number of forces fielded.
It is in the "Sengoku" (roughly translated as "The Age of the Country at War") and the Momoyama Period (ca.

 Sengoku or L5R to HERO - HERO GAMES Discussion Boards
Sengoku should be trivial to convert to Hero since it's already in 'hero lite'.
It's just that I had already started the Sengoku game (in Hero system, dammit!) and put up the website before GRG started working on their Fuzion-based Sengoku game, and I declined to change the name.
Sengoku is more accurate than L5R, but L5R has a rich story and setting which makes up for that.

Sengoku Blade is the follow up to the Psycho vertical shooter Sengoku Ace.
However Sengoku Blade is a horizontal shooter for which I’m quite glad since all of Psycho’s vertical shooters all use the same engine making them all look quite similar.
The play mechanics of Sengoku Blade are pretty simple really but don’t let that fool you in to thinking it’s not fun.

 Sengoku San
Sengoku San was the most enjoyable Megagame in which I have had the pleasure of playing, there hasn't been a single one that I did not enjoy, but Brian Cameron and Jim Walman's Shogunate Japanese megagame is my clear favourite.
Set in the Sengoku Era of Japanese history, roughly the second half of the 16th century, the megagame was about the political and military activity between the land-grabbing lords, with their incessant warfare and power-plays.
Players formed teams representing the various clans and factions at the time, taking the roles of the Daimyo, his heir or direct family, generals and 'staff' represented by a chamberlain.
