In the latter stages of the Sengoku Era foreign mercenaries had some involvement during the feuds of Japan. Characters like Amalia & Dominco while fictional are added to signify this, as well add more twists and turns in the story.

Anyway, they don't have major roles, moreso support ones on a few of the latter stages. And well one fictional scene many know involving Amalia & Hideyoshi...

Man that guy was a dirtbag, I remember when he defected to me I sent him on a suicidal mission to Aketchi. :lol: I assume the French names are there because European countries traded with Japan in history.

It's just to further recognize the countries did trade and had foreign merchants, mercenaries in Japan during the feudal area.

He also had some pretty strong attacks to hold his own. Too bad he didn't die but in chapter 13 I'm sure he does.

Sanchez was the best foreigner. haha... Mexican Yukimura XD

Generic Title Posts: 2,346 Group: Moderators Member #5,876 Joined: March 2, 2007 Gender Male	The French didn't appear in this game, it was the Portugese and Dutch, this is one of the reasons why Kessen's historical accuracy is much better than SW's. I think Pedro's betrayal had more to it than Nobunaga gaining the upperhand in the battle, maybe it had to do with the Portugese appreciating Nobunaga's politics and ways of handling things, how he greeted foreigners historically. The last battle was really hard for me, most of my best officers' conditions were low and I had to do the "Rampage" thing a couple of times. And I left it to Pedro to sacrifice himself for revealing enemy ambushes too! :lol:
	The cake is a lie.

Anyone know whats up with that? I suppose it's going with history, (Game-Wise.) at the time all sorts of foreigners were going to Japan, showing them goods from their own countries. Dutch, a few others, that's why in a certain point of the game you can buy their goods while visiting a merchant.
