Line 1: {{work}} ''Samurai Warriors'' is a spinoff of Koei's ''[[Dynasty Warriors]]'' [[Hack and Slash]], porting the gameplay elements to a new setting: the [[Jidai Geki\|Sengoku period of Japanese history]]. The playable scenarios span fifty years of Japanese history, and playable characters include [[Oda Nobunaga]], [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]], [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]], [[Sanada Yukimura]], [[Ishida Mitsunari\|Mitsunari Ishida]], [[Miyamoto Musashi]], [[Hattori Hanzo]], [[~~Fuma~~wikipedia:Fūma ~~Kotaro~~Kotarō\|Kotaro Fuma]], and many more. It should be worth noting that each version loosely sticks to a certain time frame and focuses on specific moments: case in point, the first game is all over Nobunaga while the second game's primary focus are the events leading to Sekigahara, and the third appears to try to cover just about everything in-between. Some of the playable battles: Line 64: * [[Keystone Army]]: Scripted twists (such as body doubles and dramatic entrances) aside, as soon as the commander of the opposing force retreats clutching his side/keels over dramatically, the rest of his army beats it regardless of numbers. ** Of course, with how many of them you were likely cutting down before defeating the commander, it's amazing they wait that long to get out of your sight. * [[Kori Kombat]]: Ieyasu Tokugawa is associated with tanuki and his rival, Mitsunari Ishida, is related to kitsune. * [[Leeroy Jenkins]]: If you're not the one Leeroy-ing into the crowd, expect one or more of the AI-controlled officers to charge recklessly and then necessitate you bailing them out. There are even a few stages that ''penalize'' you for getting ahead of yourself. ** And a very unusual case of the game forcing you into one: at the end of Yukimura's story mode, he decides the final battle a lost cause, the game invalidates the defeat conditions and declares everyone but you expendable, a path straight to the enemy camp (but swimming in enemy soldiers) opens up, and in SW3 your items are disabled. Why push you down the road of a totally reckless charge? Because historically, ''he actually did that''.
