How to Play Nobunaga's Ambition II
Quick start
Press START and follow the Japanese setup prompts to choose a scenario and daimyo. Move between choices with the Control Pad, use A to confirm and B to cancel. On your first turn, inspect the officer and territory lists under 情報 before starting a war. 開発 contains development work, while 軍事 handles recruiting, reorganization, training and war. Check the resources and action points available to the officer you appoint, and build a small reserve before extending your campaign.
Controls
Control Pad: move the cursor and choose entries. A: confirm a choice. B: cancel. START: begin the game. Use 開発 for development, 人事 for officer matters such as searches and rewards, and 軍事 for recruitment, reorganization, training and war. Select the relevant target and officer through the menus. These are the Famicom controls; PC mouse commands and shortcuts from other Nobunaga games are not substitutes.
Nobunaga's Ambition II — About this game
The Japanese Famicom Sengoku Gunyuuden puts the people carrying out your orders at the heart of the campaign. Retainers have different political and military abilities, and each order requires enough action points from the officer assigned to it. Land development, flood protection, trade and training compete for your attention with diplomacy and war. Searching for new followers and rewarding existing ones helps turn captured territory into a realm you can actually govern. Monthly recovery means that spending every officer's strength immediately is not always the best preparation for the next turn. Its command-driven pace allows you to build an economic base or pursue a more aggressive expansion, but either approach depends on matching your resources and officers to the task.
