Taira: We want blood(line control of the Imperial family) Minamoto: We want blood(shed for past grievances) Fujiwara: We want blood(in important bureaucratic positions)

@Seth Noah Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I love the fact that they also made an expansion about earlier "medieval" Japanese history. The 16th and 19th century stuff is welcome, of course, but it's also a lot more expected and gets more coverage than other periods. Pity this is the only recent Total War game that seems to be trying to go for genuine quality and innovation, á la M2TW ten years ago.
+Johnfuse Real expansions right? Like the Ikko ikki DLC, the Otomo DLC, the the unit packs DLC, the blood and gore DLC, the Hattori DLC, the heroes DLC, the historical battles DLC. At least the new DLCs are cheaper
@@_Gandalf_The_White While i totally despise that obsesion in CA of making tons of useless DLC´s i have to say that "Rise of the republic" was one of the best total war dlc´s i have played since "Fall of the Samurai"
Technically for a turn based strategy, you wouldn't need any of the minor conflicts and messy relations, since all decisions are still made by the player
You're right. There were Taira, Minamoto and their allies on both sides. Many clans defected depending on how the fighting was going. The Oshu Fujiwara didn't even take much part in the battles. They mostly stayed out of everyone's business until Yoritomo showed up to hunt his brother down.
you have to remember that some of those bloodlines were most likely made up to increase prestige and add legitimacy. some of them are legitimate (mori descends from fujiwara, tokugawa from minamoto, etc) but some of them are probably bullshit like the oda
The main Mongol invasion forces got crushed by typhoons, thus never been able to fully get a foothold in mainland Japan. If there is something they could've included too, it would be Toyotomi's invasions of Korea.
@@leloupdessteppes3228 The Imperial House still continues to this day. 🙂Their current Emperor is Naruhito who took the Throne after his father, Akihito, abdicated a few years ago.
Honest Dix Heian is more like the Han Dynasty than 3 Kingdoms. Also, the three powers in 3 Kingdoms are new powers, not successors of powerful families. The Fujiwara didn’t have a large role in the war either, they merely shelter Yoshitsune. Also, the geography of the clans are not as important as it is in 3 Kingdoms.
Why is Fujiwara the wolf and Taira the crane? It makes more sense that Fujiwara is the more elegant, imperial crane while the violent, cunning wolf is Taira. Taira is in direct opposition to the Minamoto like how the dog is opposed to the cat. Is there some cultural reason for these animals or is it just the Devs arbitrarily assigning cool animals to clans.
Super late comment and I don’t know if the devs were intentional about this. But crane in sinosphere usually symbolizes longevity and authority (because they were believed to have lived a hundred or thousand years with wisdom and all that) which the current defacto rulers Taira would want to represent themselves as. While wolves in shinto tradition, especially earlier on, were seen as messenger/disguised form of spirits and other godlike entities. And also has some old forest spirit connotation in them. Which i guess suits the old power fujiwara. I hope that helped
@@Yusa_Beach I think he was talking about the Meiji restorations, where Japan modernized and the old samurai clans lost their power in Japanese society.
@@SergioKoolhaas He is right that the meji restoration was coming, but that was only after the war. The Emperor gathering up arms and retaking power from the Tokugawa Shogunate that reigned about 200 years.
fujiwara isnt coz they control the imperial palace's bloodlines and offices until taira rose to power since taira kiyomori is a late emperor's bastard then minamoto was stripped off of their offices as per nobility. technically these people are all imperialists since they are all cousins under the emperor's bloodline. i can't see the point why do u need to classify the three families.
absolutely not. there were far more clans. and the influence/allegiance mechanic made it way more interesting. You may have found it boring in the first 15 turns. but right after that it becomes awesome. give it another chance.

So iconic
A bit of an over simplification of the situation, but works for a game
Well because that time was a horrendously messy time
Yeah, kind of 🤣

Astonishing, still the very best of the total war series
Taira: Oda & Hojo
Minamoto: Takeda, Tokugawa & Shimazu
Fujiwara: Uesugi & Otomo
Independent: Mori, Ikko-Ikki, Date, Hattori & Chosokabe
So the Minamoto are the best
I dunno but ig mori were fujiwara too

@@redflags6583 Tokugawa possible fraud too
They should ve really added a Mongol invasion to this dlc ,they had it in shogun 1,seriously...

@@ptherochannel-main Well the 2nd invasion saw more action. But I see where you’re coming from
@@kaijuslayer3334 2nd invasion?
@@ptherochannel-main This is total war it not have to alway be historical accurate
Good news, some modders with the guidance of some former CA members are working on a Mongol Invasion mod for Shogun 2.
When you look on it from the historical side, then the real winner in the war became Minamoto
Tokugawa were of Minamoto descent so yeah they won complete control.
I’m not sure about the emperial lineage though
@@leloupdessteppes3228 The Imperial House still continues to this day. 🙂Their current Emperor is Naruhito who took the Throne after his father, Akihito, abdicated a few years ago.
Oversimplified plot, but it would be very difficult to be more exhaustive !
I'm sorry, but the fucking music for this intro is stunning, so sad I cant find it anywhere
Yeah neither can I
Still a great time-period and DLC
This Heian preiod is just like Three Kingdom of China as three state famillies wars:
Minamoto:Shu
Taira:Wei
Fujiwara:Wu.

Taira=Hlaalu
Minamoto=Redoran
Fujiwara=Telvanni
Except Telvanni are actually strong.
smoking dat argonian pack
In another words:
Taira = House Lannister.
Minamoto = House Baratheon.
Fujiwara = House Stark weak version.
like to think as fujiwara as house targaryen
That's what I thought all along lol
Minamoto are House Stark, Fujiwara are House Targaryen and the emperor is House Baratheon
For me its more like:
Taira = House Lannister.
Minamoto = House Stark
Fujiwara = House Targaryen
Taira = Lannisters
Minamoto = Baratheon
Fujiwara = Velaryon (the other valyrians)
Gosh I almost forgot how much I loved this game. What incredible narration and storytelling.
Why is Fujiwara the wolf and Taira the crane? It makes more sense that Fujiwara is the more elegant, imperial crane while the violent, cunning wolf is Taira. Taira is in direct opposition to the Minamoto like how the dog is opposed to the cat.

Rokugan is afterlife of the samurai
And a mortal realm of the kami(gods)
Taira=Taira
Minamoto=Minamoto
Fujiwara=Fujiwara
You're welcome!
The sigils are wrong. The emblem of the Taira clan is a butterfly. Minamoto and Fujiwara clan emblems are different kinds of flowers.
Bushido, the way of the warrior
Life is like Sakura. Strong, struggling and beautifully short and like the blossoms our life should end in a good death.
Taira- Mughal empire
Minamoto- Maratha confederacy
Fujiwara- British
Makes crazy amount of sense.
Like the three families of Bangu in Rio de Janeiro 200 years ago
Taira = Silva
Minamoto = Souza
Fujiwara = Lima
Lol I can't be the only one who's hearing this... "The imperial penis is at an end" XD
Taira: Men (Control over Elves)
Minamoto: Orcs (War-like)
Fujiwara: Elves (Ancient race)
0:09 My only question is, why do these people give him that look? Is he the 'weird old man of the town' or smth?
Hey, do somebody know where to get the music on this video?
I got it to 1k
good!
Game of Thrones vibes.
Taira = Lannister
Minamoto = Baratheon
Fujiwara = Stark
*in my opinion*
For me its more like:
Taira = House Lannister.
Minamoto = House Stark
Fujiwara = House Targaryen
Minamoto seems more like the Tyrells. Politically savvy, cunning, and manipulative. Just not matriarchal.
@@plumpsmedici7306 I think its because of the animals that they are represented by
@@goobins_jr that's fujiwara. they do their activity inside the government and bloodline
I’m confused is this video about the Genpei War or the Sengoku Jidai?
Genpei War
The Sengoku Jidai is Shogun 2, Fall of Samurai was meiji, and Rise of the Samurai is Genpei
@@samuraijackoff5354 correction, Fall is Boshin (Boshin wars)

Taira : Capitalist

Khurram Mazhar Amir Taira are more capitalist

the fascist win at the end.

i can't see the point why do u need to classify the three families.
@@mhel6948 chill dude it was a joke
yeap
