                                 Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the 1870s, Captain Nathan Algren, a cynical veteran of the American Civil war 
who will work for anyone, is hired by Americans who want lucrative contracts 
with the Emperor of Japan to train the peasant conscripts for the first standing 
imperial army in modern warfare using firearms. The imperial Omura cabinet's 
first priority is to repress a rebellion of traditionalist Samurai -hereditary 
warriors- who remain devoted to the sacred dynasty but reject the Westernizing 
policy and even refuse firearms. Yet when his ill-prepared superior force sets 
out too soon, their panic allows the sword-wielding samurai to crush them. Badly 
wounded Algren's courageous stand makes the samurai leader Katsumoto spare his 
life; once nursed to health he learns to know and respect the old Japanese way, 
and participates as advisor in Katsumoto's failed attempt to save the Bushido 
tradition, but Omura gets repressive laws enacted- he must now choose to honor 
his loyalty to one of the embittered sides when the conflict returns to the 
battlefield...
