Note: This is not focusing on a single title but all of the Empires games. So which do you think are the highlights? Please choose 2. My vote: Empires Mode - Not particularly fond of the mode, as I prefer to play the XL titles. But its what the game is at the end of the day. Archives - Unlocking and looking at all the character artwork. I really like the music here too. Edited by LittleDragonZ, Nov 23 2008, 02:50 PM.

You are already in my genjutsu.

I chose Empire Mode and CAW/Edit Mode. Empire Mode because it's what the game's about. CAW because you can get unique looks and give them special skills. |

Empire and Edit Officer Modes. Empire is the meat of the game duhhh. it's the only strategy game that's simple enough for me to play. while I love VS mode, I'd prefer it really be in the original game. the funnest part in Empire mode is seeing your creations on your side or atking your territory. they're more challenging than a bunch of generics so they give empire mode some much needed spice. Free Mode SUCKED, worst idea EVER!!

I agree. IMO its useless when you've got Empire Mode. Free Mode has been poor for a time now, it needs something to make it unique and to be want to be played. They really needed to fix this mode in all the latest games, but obviously just threw it in. |

I voted for Empire mode and free mode.  Empires because its the main point of the game and the strategy and invasions are really cool. For free mode, it needs a lot of work. But it is really cool. I just like to choose everyone who is in the battle but I agree, they need some special features so its not just there. I would've chosen Edit mode but like Free mode, I think it needs a lot of work. While its cool to create your own character, you can't do much with it. Sure you can start your own force in Empires mode and choose their clothes (not including the SW2:E CAW). But I wish there was more. Like choosing a force to serve under and relationships with other characters. I hope DW6:E adds these features and makes Free Mode better too.

Empires(for all the reasons previously stated) and CAW because it's tailor-made for Empires, i have always felt that CAW was useless in the base games, with so many other characters who have detailed stories and the generic trash(bar SW1) stories that the CAW has had. i truly enjoy CAW in Empires. |
 best regards to the lovely Miho for making this banner, it's good to have friends in high places. | |

Well, Empire mode, obviously. It's the showcase item of the Empires titles, and I find it to be one of the most enjoyable modes in any Warriors title/expansion for that matter. Otherwise, I selected the Archives, the additional information, artworks etc in there is quite fascinating to read and have a look at. |

Empire Mode is obviously one of the two, I mean why would anyone have bothered to buy the game if not for it o_O It's basically the bread and butter of the game and a pretty good experience that I find brings a lot of replayability, not to say that it couldn't be worked on because it certainly could. The second I voted for was the Edit Mode, I'm a fan of creating characters and it always is fun in my opinion. And it seems to be getting an overhaul in DW6E which at the moment looks very good. |

Empire Mode and CAW make my day. On SW2:E I remember one full max'd-out Custom character of mine. Shinryu Nakamura... absolute pwnage. |

Empire Mode, obviously as it's what makes the game what it it. Aside that, I'd go for Vs mode as it's always better than the regular Vs mode. Vs modes never get boring as long as you have people to play with, so it gets my vote. Archieves were fun to look at and exmine too, as Fayt said. |

Okay, okay, I am prepared for the ridicule that will come with this and I will fully embrace it, but my favorite feature in the Empire series is... well... the Archives section. ... Especially the part where you can hear their different phrases. I know. It's such a useless function, but... I can spend hours listening to the sound clips and that'd make me happy. Of course I like playing the Empires mode itself, but it's the Archives that takes the cake for me. |

I was actually very close to picking Archives too, for much the same reasons. I always get a kick out of listening to some of the generics' lines in SW2E. Can't look up the girls' skirts like in DW5E though.

I would too, but they only let you have up to 3 non generics on each side, which I think sucked. Also letting us have 3-sided battles would have helped. |

Yeah, that would've been the best. And I wish that you could order the officers in a way so the non-generics had to be first. It has a lot of potential, but needs a lot of improvement. |

delicious...

Um, the correct answer would be OTHER, because, in my opinion, the greatest thing that the Empires spin-off's have going for them is the... EDIT ENDING! Which, may or may not be part of the archives, but I honestly can't remember (I've only played 4:E). EITHERWAY... I remembering playing through Empires Mode just to unlock certain endings... ah, it was great. EVAH FREEEEEEEEEEEE! *Random Japanese sing-ing!* Endless entertaining... I'd spend $20 on a game where I could simply just put DW characters in random music video endings.

Same here, I LOVE edit ending, it's fun. It was best in Empires too 'cause you can choose the clip. Shame it's not in SW though, I'd spend hours messing with it , hope KOEI improves this feature with more functions, I wouldn't hide that I play Empires mode just to unlock the clips there. |

How could I forget the awesomeness of the Edit Ending? I am shamed of myself. So very, very ashamed. |

obviously Empire mode. I enjoy thinking about strategy and make plans, such as invasion and defence. It is really fun to conquer the lands. :3 I voted for Archives. I like listening to some officers' lines because some of them are so hilarious. Unlocking artworks are a bit hard. I am an artist/illustrator and, of course, I like the artworks. Edit ending is very fun. Oh man, I love making endings. I like the clips in DW5 Empires.

I only found Empire mode and the archives to be the only thing enjoyable about this expansion pack. I like creating my own kingdom and ruling the world with the help of my favorite characters! The archives is fun to play with the voices, edit endings, and viewing the artwork. |

I chose Empire mode because that is the main game and and there is no point buying it if you do not like the mpire mode and i also like the whole chosing what your army does and where it attacks and to employ people, i like making the decisions. Also i like the CAW mode because my fvaourite thing about empires is making people and then going on the empire mode where it all gets randomised and then random people rule and some are your CAW's and also you could rule China if you are the CAW you made! |

Empire: While I wish you can stick more than 6 people in one area and strategy was needed a lot more, it's still fun playing myself and conquering all of China  And excuting Sima Yi <.< I just don't like that guy. <.<They should try and make it seem like you are ACTUALLY running an Empire. Archives and CAW: I like looking at all the models and such.. But I can't be pervy with the women v_v I added CAW too because I couldn't decide, I like making characters then killing them *evil laugh* |
