II. INTRODUCTION
===============================================================================
This is the Sengoku Musou 2 Empires Translation Guide made by BlackKite aka.
The Giant Hoeruo at GameFAQs Boards. This guide is made to help import gamers
who play Sengoku Musou 2 Empires, a hack'n'slash game made by KOEI.
This guide contains Japanese text which is saved in the Shift-JIS format,
so in order to be able to show the Japanese text, you need to change your
browser encoding to Japanese (Shift-JIS).
The overseas version (Samurai Warriors 2 Empires) is already out, so I might
try to change the descriptions to fit the overseas version and ease those who
insist to play the Japanese version.
Remember that this is just a translation guide, and as the name implies, this
guide only provides translations for the JP version, and not in-depth of the
game mechanics etc. For the latter, there is already a US FAQ available made
by Rampidzier (by the time I wrote this); you should check that for
explanation of the game mechanics and such.
All names here are written with the surname-firstname order
(e.g. Toyotomi Hideyoshi). And even though the overseas version will have the
names reversed (e.g. Hideyoshi Toyotomi), I will NOT reverse them under any
circumstances, because this order is the correct way to write historical
Japanese names (Pre-1868 Meiji Restoration).
===============================================================================
III. TRANSLATIONS
===============================================================================
First things first, remember the two most basic things in Japanese games:
1. はい (Hai) means Yes, and いいえ (Iie) means No.
2. Circle button is used to confirm things instead of Cross in NA games,
and Cross button to cancel things instead of Triangle.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1. Main Menu
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
If it is the first time you're playing this game and you have a Sengoku Musou
2 save on your memory card as well as about 700KB free space, the game will
ask you if you want to import data from the original save. All 28 unique
characters (yes, including Sasaki Kojirou & Shibata Katsuie) will be available
by default in Free Mode and Rivalry of Local Warlords scenario, and some
pictures at the database are unlocked automatically if you choose to import.
After seeing the KOEI logo, Dolby Digital, Omega-Force and either watching or
skipping the opening movie, a huge Sengoku Musou 2 Empires logo should appear.
Press Start, and you'll enter the main menu. The Menu is listed as below.
For more details regarding the modes, please check their respective submenus.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1a. 争覇演舞 Struggle for Supremacy aka. Empire Mode
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the game title implies, this is the main mode of the game. If this is the
first time you're playing this game, the game will guide you to choose the
1561 Kawanakajima scenario and will tutor you on the game basics. If you want,
you can select the regional scenarios or the Rivalry of Local Warlords. Though
it is not recommended to play the latter unless you've imported SM2 save file,
since you probably haven't unlocked officers yet.
Here is the list of scenarios available in this mode. Some of them must be
unlocked first, though.
川中島の戦い 1561年
Battle of Kawanakajima - 1561
Background: Takeda Shingen & Uesugi Kenshin
姉川の戦い 1570年
Battle of Anegawa - 1570
Background: Oda Nobunaga, Azai Nagamasa & O-Ichi
Unlocked by clearing any regional scenarios before 1570
本能寺の変 1582年
The Honnouji Incident - 1582
Background: Oda Nobunaga
Unlocked by clearing the Kawanakajima scenario
関ヶ原の戦い 1600年
Battle of Sekigahara - 1600
Background: Tokugawa Ieyasu & Ishida Mitsunari
Unlocked by clearing the Honnouji scenario
群雄割拠 1561年
Rivalry of Local Warlords - 1561
Background: Various New Officers
aka. the 'Gathering of Heroes' scenario. Here, you can select anyone as
daimyo in any places.
東北統一戦 1561年
Touhoku Unification Battle - 1561
Background: Date Masamune
関東統一戦 1561年
Kantou Unification Battle - 1561
Background: Fuuma Kotarou
中部統一戦 1561年
Chuubu Unification Battle - 1561
Background: Sanada Yukimura & Maeda Keiji
近畿統一戦 1561年
Kinki Unification Battle - 1561
Background: Saika Magoichi
中国四国統一戦 1561年
Chugoku-Shikoku Unification Battle - 1561
Background: Miyamoto Musashi
九州統一戦 1561年
Kyushu Unification Battle - 1561
Background: Shimazu Yoshihiro & Tachibana Ginchiyo
After choosing the scenario, you will be given five difficulty options.
天国 Heaven, 易しい Easy, 普通 Normal, 難しい Hard, 地獄 Hell
Obviously, Heaven is the easiest, while Hell is the hardest.
Then a series of more options will appear.
成長データ Growth Data
Here, you can choose if you want to 引継ぎ use saved stats or 初期状態 revert
to default stats.
統一期限 Unification Limit
あり If you set it to Existant, there will be a 50 year (200 turn) limit from
the starting year.. If you exceed this limit, it's game over.
なし Setting it to None will make the game end at the year 2000, giving you
PLENTY of time to max out your characters, no? :)
新武将 New Officers
Set whether New Officers you haven't assigned yet will 登場 appear or
未登場 not.
Note that if you choose no in Regional scenarios, even if you put in an officer
he/she will be guaranteed disappearing when you move on to national mode.
総取りルール Conquering Rule
大名攻略 Attacking Daimyo. Simple enough, just conquer the province the enemy
daimyo is in, and all his territories are belong to you.
分断攻略 Divide and Conquer. Similar to above, but you need to isolate the
enemy capital first, making sure the daimyo can't retreat to anywhere.
なし None. You need to capture every single province by yourself.
登用上限枠 Officer Number
最小 Fewest - You are limited to JUST 6 characters, no more.
少ない Few - You may have 1 additional officer for each province other than
your capital.
普通 Normal - You may have 2 additional officer for each province other than
your capital.
多い Many - You may have 4 additional officer for each province other than
your capital.
最大 Most - You may have 6 additional officer for each province other than
your capital.
Note that if you choose one of the few options while choosing a clan with many
officers, some of them will be cut to fit with the officer number you've
selected.
武将死亡 Officer Death
If you choose あり Existant, then officers can die of old age and you can also
execute them.
If you choose なし None, then only events will trigger an officer's death,
like Nobunaga being killed at Honnouji.
To unlock some of those options, you must do some things on Empire mode,
including completing the mode once. But for me, it wasn't until completing
the mode the second time to have all the options unlocked...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1b. 模擬演舞 Simulation Mode aka. Free Mode
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This mode is self explanatory. You play through a stage with either the preset
generals or characters you've played as in Empire Mode. Note that the stats
gained after finishing a stage in this mode is saved, and will carry over the
next time you choose that character in both Empire and Free Modes.
For the list of stages in this mode, please see the "5. Free Mode Stage List"
section.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1c. 戦国図録 Sengoku Picture Book aka. Visual Database
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1d. 新武将 New Officer aka. Create-a-Warrior (CAW)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, New Officer aka. CAW is back in this game. The system is not as vast as
DW5's though, but nevertheless, here are the things you can adjust for your
own characters.
姓名 Name
Self Explanatory, you input the name of your character here. In the JP
version, The top one is surname, while the bottom one is firstname.
Moreover, you can only enter up to 3 letters (Be it hiragana, katakana, kanji
or alphabet) for each names, so you can't insert 長宗我部 Chousokabe nor
五右衛門 Goemon. :(
モデル Model
Like the prequel SM1, the models here are predetermined. All of them are based
on SM2 bodyguards and generic officers, but since bodyguards are no more in
this game, you can consider the former bodyguard models as original models. :p
Male Samurai
Male Warrior
Male Ninja
Female Samurai
Female Priestess
Female Kunoichi
Generic General
Generic Strategist
Generic Warrior
Generic Politician
Generic Old Man
Generic Kyushu General
Male Monk
Also, you can now change the color of your character's outfit. There are 10
colors to choose from: Red, Blue, Yellow, Crimson, Purple, Aqua, White,
Green, Black and Silver (Kyushu Color).

kanjis can be attached for Musou; only a number of them is selectable.
Note that after you have done making your character, when you want to modify
him/her again, you can only change the following aspects:
Name, Voice, Battle Skill, Clan Crest and Musou Kanji
If you made a wrong choice on the other aspects, you have to re-do your
character from scratch again.

Note that the offensive side is mentioned first, and then followed by the

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
6. Regional Empire Mode Province List
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
These are lists of provinces in the Regional Empire Mode scenarios since they
are different from what they are in the real Empire Mode. After unifying the
region, you will be asked if you want to continue to national mode or not.
Note that if you choose to continue, your province number will be reduced
to fit the regions in the national mode... Unless if you're playing in Chuubu,
where all the provinces are featured in national mode.
The template is like this:
Province name [Owner clan]
東北 Touhoku
There are 6 provinces here.
陸奥 Mutsu [津軽 Tsugaru]
陸中 Rikuchu [南部 Nanbu]
陸前 Rikuzen [伊達 Date]
羽後 Ugo [安東 Antou]
羽前 Uzen [最上 Mogami]
磐木岩城 Iwaki-Iwashiro [芦名 Ashina]
Once you move to national mode, they will be reduced to 3 provinces.

関東 Kantou
There are 6 provinces here.

下総 Shimousa [結城 Yuuki]
上総安房 Kazusa-Awa [里見 Satomi]
武蔵 Musashi [北条 Hojo]
相模伊豆 Sagami-Izu [北条 Hojo]
Kantou is the most neglected region here, because it has ONLY 2 provinces in
national mode..
常陸下野 Hitachi-Shimotsuke, 相模武蔵 Sagami-Musashi
中部 Chuubu
There are 8 provinces here.
越後上野 Echigo-Kouzuke [上杉 Uesugi]
甲斐信濃 Kai-Shinano [武田 Takeda]

越中加賀 Etchu-Kaga [畠山 Hatakeyama]
越前若狭 Echizen-Wakasa [朝倉 Asakura]
美濃飛騨 Mino-Hida [斎藤 Saitou]
三河 Mikawa [徳川 Tokugawa]
尾張伊勢 Owari-Ise [織田 Oda]
Luckily, all of them are kept in national mode. Hence SM's focus on Central
Honshu...
近畿 Kinki
There are 6 provinces here.
丹波丹後 Tanba-Tango [波多野 Hatano]
近江伊賀 Oumi-Iga [浅井 Azai]
山城 Yamashiro [足利 Ashikaga]

阿波讃岐 Awa-Sanuki [三好 Miyoshi]
伊予 Iyo [河野 Kouno]
土佐 Tosa [長宗我部 Chousokabe]
They get shafted to 4 provinces in national mode.
播磨備前 Harima-Bizen, 安芸周防 Aki-Suou, 土佐阿波 Tosa-Awa, 伊予 Iyo
九州 Kyushu
There are 6 provinces here.
豊前豊後 Buzen-Bungo [大友 Ootomo]
筑前 Chikuzen [大友 Ootomo]
肥前筑後 Hizen-Chikugo [竜造寺 Ryuuzouji]
肥後 Higo [相良 Sagara]
日向 Hyuuga [伊東 Itou]
薩摩大隈 Satsuma-Oosumi [島津 Shimazu]
They get compressed to 4 provinces in national mode.

V. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
===============================================================================
Q: Is this game available for two players?
A: Yes. You can have a second player help you on battles.
Q: Does this game have online feature?
A: No it doesn't.
Q: Is there CAW in this game?
A: Yes. CAW aka New Officer is in this game.
Q: Do Ishikawa Goemon, Imagawa Yoshimoto, Honganji Kennyo and Kunoichi return?
A: No. Yoshimoto's already dead one year before the first year of this game
(1561); In command of his clan is his son 今川氏真 Imagawa Ujizane.
They somehow just ignore the Honganji clan. Goemon doesn't return either,
and I could care less about the fictional kunoichi.
But I can tell you that they're coming back in Musou Orochi, the crossover
of Shin Sangoku Musou & Sengoku Musou released in Japan on March 21 2007.
Q: Can you import save file from SW2? If you can, what will be imported?
A: Look at the "1. Main Menu" section.
Q: Will this game be released on the US?
A: This game is already out in the US. Remember that this guide is only for
translating things on the JP version. There should be FAQs dedicated to the
US version up soon.
Q: Will this game be released on XBox360?
A: I'm not sure, but since DW5E has been released on 360, there's a good
chance this game will as well.
