----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you for purchasing Takeda.  If this is your first time downloading a patch for the 
game, please be sure to download and install patch #1 before proceeding with #2.



INSTALLATION:
-------------
Using Winzip or another extraction utility, unpack the .zip file you downloaded from the 
Takeda website.  Extract all files to the main Takeda game folder (by default, this is 
"C:\Program Files\Xicat\Takeda").



UNINSTALLING THE GAME:
----------------------
To uninstall Takeda after this patch has been applied, first run the normal uninstall 
program for the original game (available in the "Add-Remove Programs" section of the
windows control panel).  When the game has been uninstalled, you will have to delete the
Takeda folder and its contents.



NEW FEATURES INCLUDED IN THIS PATCH:
------------------------------------

1) New Generals added in Campaign mode
2) Ability to choose clans in historical battles.
3) New Hotkeys
4) A new tournament style campaign in historical battle mode.



1) NEW GENERALS:
----------------

A few new generals have been added to the campaign mode, giving you a greater selection 
of commanders to choose from. 



2) CHOOSING CLANS IN HISTORICAL BATTLES:
----------------------------------------

It is now possible to choose the clan you would like to play in historical battles. 
When you enter a historical battle, you will be given a list of clan "mon" similar
to dual mode.  Click on the symbol of the clan you want to play and then click "OK" 
to begin the battle.  The opposing clan is chosen randomly.



3) NEW HOTKEYS:
---------------

In addition to the hotkeys added in the last patch, there are now keyboard functions
for cycling through the list of divisions, moving the army, and activating the morale
drum.  The hotkeys are as follows:


TAB        = Cycle through divisions
CTRL + "`" = Cycle through divisions

CTRL + "1" = Select the division of the first general (from the left) on the control panel
CTRL + "2" = Select the division of the second general on the control panel
CTRL + "3" = Select the division of the third general on the control panel
CTRL + "4" = Select the division of the fourth general on the control panel
CTRL + "5" = Select the division of the fifth general on the control panel
CTRL + "6" = Select the division of the sixth general on the control panel
CTRL + "7" = Select the division of the seventh general on the control panel
CTRL + "8" = Select the division of the eighth general on the control panel
CTRL + "9" = Select the division of the ninth general on the control panel
CTRL + "0" = Select the division of the tenth general on the control panel
CTRL + "-" = Select the division of the eleventh general on the control panel
CTRL + "+" = Select the division of the twelfth general on the control panel

"a"        = select all divisions
"s"        = army pull back
"d"        = army halt
"f"        = army advance
SPACEBAR   = morale drum



4) NEW CAMPAIGN:
----------------

Clicking on the campaign button in historical battle mode will bring you to a new tournament style campaign mode.  In this new mode, players can choose to play a tournament campaign as any of the eight major clans of the period.

The player must click on the clan logo to choose a starting clan.
After the player has selected his/her clan, then he/she chooses an opponent by selecting a second logo.
The tourment-campaign proceeds as follows:
a. Each clan receives 100 infantry, 10 cavalry, and 3 rifles as reinforcements each turn.
b. If a clan's strength drops below 200, that clan will be defeated and removed from the tournament.
c. High bravery scores provide additional reinforcements:  
	every 30 bravery points  = 1 extra infantry
	every 100 bravery points  = 1 extra cavalry
	every 500 bravery points = 1 extra rifle

The tournament is saved automatically after each battle.
Clicking on the resign button resets the campaign, deleting the current profile/saved campaign.

Enjoy!
