just incase anyone searches and has the same problem

sorted with this bit of advice of the TW forums

Did you,or have you any Mods installed ? If so,take them out,delete the scripts and fx_cache files from the Appdata/Roaming/The Creative Assembly/scripts and Appdata/Roaming/The Creative Assembly/Shogun2/fx_cache folders,verify gamecache and try again
