Shogun 2 and the BKA

[b8amack]

Been playing this game a bit (which is a casual way of saying it is a black hole of spare time) and watched this video: http://www.totalwar.com/videos/3434 (http://www.totalwar.com/videos/3434)
If you go about 4 minutes in, they show their motion capturing process, where they apparently worked with members of the British Kendo Association. Any KW posters get in on this?

I know a few of the lads who did this. They are members of Tora Dojo in London.

Yeah? Thats awesome, love this game! Been waiting for an update of the original shogun ever since Rome total war landed on my pc :)

Played it, loved it. Now I need to continue my campaign of conquering all of Japan! That is a really cool piece of info about the BKA getting in on the motion capture process

Just checked out their page. It's crazy that their instructor was winning national tournaments here before she was even nidan! Nice to see some Korean instructors gaining international prominence.

Yeah, she's a great instructor and kicks arse.

I train with the Tora Dojo whenever I'm in London, a very sociable group with a great atmosphere. I'll echo what Dezza says about Cho-sensei, she's sunshine in a jar and absolutely deadly.

Shogun 2 is the only game I've really wanted to play in a long time, but it's going to be years before I can afford a laptop able to play it. I still break out the original once every year or so.
