Shogunate is an empire-tier title that has the whole of Japan as its De Jure. You can create it by Found a New Shogunate decision. The title will be destroyed if a different dynasty takes it from the current owner.
AI characters less tend to accept your call to war than vanilla. Their opinion has to be at least 50 for a defensive war and 75 for an offensive war.
The final era, Late Sengoku, unlocks the powerful Casus Belli ‘Unify Japan’ to accelerate the unification. With it, you can declare war on neighbor rulers without any restrictions.
After you get the Shogunate title, you can end the Sengoku period with one of the three challenging decisions. The game will show the ending.
Special buildings such as mines, trade ports, and gunsmiths are on the map. Each building has powerful modifiers, but only the top liege can benefit.
Arquebus and Cannons are special innovations, but you can’t unlock them by yourself. The unique events unlock them gradually.
If you expand your realm too large, you will be the target of a coalition and get a severe diplomatic penalty. The coalition will be dissolved after you expand larger.
You can gain the ranks and posts of the Imperial Court through decisions. Each of them has unique modifiers.
The Emperor (Southern Court) and the Shogun (Northern Court) fight each other in the period. There are more unique rules:
1. Independent rulers are split into two sides. They have unique traits, and the map shows them in blue and red colors.
2. Each side has ‘Unify Courts’ Casus Belli against the other. It is similar to the ‘Unify Japan’ Casus Belli.
3. A leader of each side can end the period with a decision.
4. A member of each side can change (betray) his side with a decision.
