Never heard of this. Is it somewhat similiar to Dynasty Tactics or more like the Total War series on the pc?

not really impressed with this one, the amount of characters on screen is nice, but I guess I expect more. Maybe videos are much better than those pics display.

Summary of game-watch article:
Action game set in the 100 year long war between France and Britain. The hero is a commanding officer of a band of mercenaries. As a commanding officer you must lead a great number of soldiers. The player can of course pick up weapons and arms to take personally take part in the battles. It’s different from the Musou Series. Soldiers fight each other individually on the battle field.

My 5cents:
It kind of mix-between RTS and action game. Commanding your troops is very important, but you can also take part in the action. Might be a little bit similar to Battalion Wars
