All I can think of is Ghost of Tsushima

Set in 1274 on the Tsushima Island, the last samurai, Jin Sakai, must master a new fighting style, the way of the Ghost, to defeat the Mongol forces and fight for the freedom and independence of Japan.

It would all depend on the terrain . In a mountain in Japan, samurai have the upper hand .

Great video. Reminds me of the show Deadliest Warrior. Would love to see @infographics do a similar series. 😊

Note: The katana was not the "soul of a samurai" but rather, the samurai's badge, and at best the Soul of the Swordmaker.

Although the Turks often comprised the bulk of the Mongol army as well as the bulk of armies opposed to the Mongols, throughout the domains of the Mongol Empire there was a diffusion of military technology, which has already bee and also ethnic groups. In addition to the Mongols and Turks, other ethnicities served in the Mongol military machine and found themselves distant from home.

The Mongol Hordes were basically zombie apocalypse chasing you down until you fail

[TOKMAKCI_BASPAPAZ]

When Temüjin was a boy, the center of the steppe world was the Orkhon Valley, the old imperial site of the Türks. The valley was dominated by the Kereit. To the west, on the upper Irtysh River, lay Naiman territory. The Kereit and Naiman, not the Mongols, were masters of the steppe. The Kereit and Naiman elites spoke Turkic and had partially converted to Christianity under the influence of the Nestorian Church. In an effort to out do each other, To'oril of the Kereit and Tayang Qan of the Naiman accumulated men, weapons, alliances, and prestige. Yesügei Ba'atur sided with the Kereit. Later Chinggis Khan would subdue the Kereit and the Naiman in the course of a protracted effort to defeat all challengers among the steppe peoples.

I think it's also worth mentioning that more than half of the Mongol army that attacked Japan were actually mercenaries who fought for money over the Mongol Empire's glory. So even though the Samurai did fight the Mongols, most of the soldiers they fought were not Mongols but mercenaries.

Ok so from the start of this video, I now realise we will have 2 more Ghost of Tsushima games!

[luccaoliva]

Can you do a comparison between the Vikings and Romans or Persians vs ottomans, Spartans vs Vikings, Vikings vs Celtics

[FedJimSmith]

the strategic setting is like what Germany is to Britain during WW2. The body of water saves the island nation

[ThatCreoleMan]

Shogun totally war gold edition had a mode for this it was brilliant

[lordMartiya]

The Mongols invaded Japan twice. And twice the Japanese threw them back into the sea right during monsoon season. History has already answered this.
