The Castle provides gamers with a single, intuitive dashboard for all their pre and post battle decisions and elevates the game from a tactical action title to a strategy focused epic. It plays a very important role in the Samurai Warriors 4 Empires as it is essentially a command centre from where the player can regulate interior and foreign affairs, formulate political and military strategy, and utilise their allied officers’ skills to grow their army’s number, power, and loyalty.
Starting of as a cluster of small rooms and growing to a multi-tiered stronghold, players can use the Castle interface to assign various tasks and Magistrate titles to their most trusted and valued allied officers. These tasks can vary from Recruitment to Diplomacy and from Development to Strategy.
