Attila and, in particular, Charlemagne come close after Fall of the Samurai as far as historical games go for me. The management layer in particular is something I love about it (also with how Charlemagne adopted formable nations a la Paradox, something which I wish was in the series earlier). On the downside, I've had late game lag making games feel much less enjoyable but maybe I can try with my new set-up.
I think I understand why people love Shogun. Im just a sucker for the setting of Attila and it feels like a Total War game that REALLY tries with the campaign layer and the depths of its mechanics. Besides the fact that its actually legit challenging (or at least that is how I remembered it)
