This game was so rare back in the day that finding it made me so happy. I spent many nights staying up late during snowstorms and I just felt cozy playing this. There's so much depth to this game that I feel it's one of the best games ever made.
This game holds a place in my heart. I had a lot of fun sitting in the basement playing this on SNES. It was an amazing game for its time and one I would love to see preserved. The varying units with there strengths and weaknesses requiring that you adjust units for different terrain, damage types, travel speed and other factors gave a great set of layers to a game that you didn't often see in the SNES days. With the popularity of the later games in the franchise, see Tactics Ogre: Reborn, I think this game would find an audience with both the nostalgia and new player alike.

Shogun: Total War
Shogun: Total WarSet against the backdrop of the Sengoku Jidai (Warring States) period from the 15th to the beginning of the 17th century, Shogun: Total War is a real-time tactics and turn-based strategy game with a strong focus on historical authenticity. Players assume control of a daimyo (leader) of a contemporary Japanese clan and attempt to conquer the nation and claim the title of supreme Shogun, the undisputed military ruler of Japan. The gameplay consist of two parts – a turn-based Risk-style mode on a 2D campaign map of Japan where the player must recruit, manage and move their armies, conduct diplomacy, trade, espionage, sabotage and assassinations. This 2D map however ultimately serves to provide context for the 3D real-time battles that make up the main part of the game and occur whenever your army crosses into enemy territory or two opposing forces meet on the campaign map.
