The Last samurai was a good movie to me, except for the ending when they got slaughtered 
Hope you make this good, tell me when I can look at it O.O

I have made the following changes
Players has been lowered to 5
Instead of playing the story, at the start you can choose your mode,choices are:
Storyline: Play through the story and choose who you fight for
Forest Battle: Nathan is with the peasent army against the Samurai in a dark forest
Katsumoto's Escape: this is the battle when a small Samurai force must get Katsumoto out of the castle against a larger force (this requires tactics, Nathan is Samurai)
Final Battle: This is the last battle when a small samurai army must defend against the 'japs', this battle will have Nathan as Samurai and all other players will be given 20 minerals (20 lvls) to help start them off!!
As you can see this map is going along fine, i am finishing off the Final Battle mode and will release to any testers!!

WoodenFire, just the man i wanted to see! people say that you are a pro terrain maker, is this true then i would like to ask for your great help it Kutsumoto's escape and the forest battle, when the screenshots come out (today or tomoro) you will see that i didnt spend much time (at the moment) on the last battle, but i spent some time with the Samurai trenches!!
Battle Update
Final Battle unit placement: Almost complete! just finishing off the specal effects (woot!)
Final Battle Triggers: None at all, i must get rid of the blockers (to stop the players from accidently walking in there), must get nathen down there and must get each Samurai player a small portion of men!
Forest Battle unit placement: Almost complete, i have been considering putting the pylons blue glow (with SCMDraft to reprasent fog) but that makes the map lag abit!)
Forest Battle Triggers: None at all, i have the placement all set up (to reprasent the solders that flee when the samurai completly FK them up), in story mode the samurai WILL win (to reprasent nathans capture) but battle mode will decide on the tactics that the players use (Still debating if i should give the 'japs' to Nathan)
Katsumoto's escape: Dont even bother asking, i am trying to get a pro map makers help for this battle so it will be a true escape!
Expect screenshots sometime today (or tomoro) but seeing as today is the first day at school i wont work on it as much!!

Now i dont usally like posting at this time as it cuts into my map making (and i also got home from school) but seeing a supportive post from minigame himself fills me with great couragement!! i would like to say thank you and reward you guys with a small update!!
Samurai players now have a meditation chamber, when you reach a high armour, you can enter each meditation chamber (lvls 1,2,3 and 4) and stay there (while taking damige from the lvl monster).
There is also going to be paths that the Samurai walk, in the Lord of the Rings rpg 3, you would walk long paths and just level! you can do that but you will be called to help with the scripted battles!
i will save the rest for 2moros update!! (unless something comes up)

I wonder if you are going to have Tom Cruise as the hero unit. HahA! Only kidding. Good luck on recreating battle scenes, I found the Last Samurai hilarious... Because a non-Japanese person survived.
Can't wait to see the finished product.

Massive update!!!!
I have made a few decisions and unfortantly pictures wont be shown till a later date. I have decided this because there is little point to show half completed terrain
and uncompleted unit placement!!
Even though i will not take pictures intill i have completed the Last battle part, i am still working on anything that gets within my reach!!!
So far you can level up to level 5 (i will do more when i find a good sound for it)
The units are inplace for upgrading armour and weapons (Forge and such)
When i first tested with moogle i forgot that the samurai had to be allied with the actull Samurai ("Doh")
The intro is completed and Nathan can actully go to the forest battle (even though thats not complete) and the units have been put inplace so nathan can level while going there!
The healing for Nathan going to the forest is also complete (so any luck people that meet me can test being Nathan)
And since i am such a lovely guy, i have decided to put 1 (almost completed) picture in =D check up

Even though it unprotects maps, it screws up the triggers and location names, but feel free and go ahead, look for the map in RPG

Protection has never been one of my favorite things. Proedit has always crashed my maps with its protection. Obvously I never used it again. And guess what, I never use protection again ;D (O.O Omg that doesnt sound right. XD)
Make it good buddy ;D
