Your clan has a limited life time. The most powerful clan (in my opinion)
is Shimazu clan. Remember, if you use geisha to destroy a faction….just
make sure you are allying with them.
Hints:
——
* Remember that the Yari Ashigaru is nothing more than a motley collection
of peasant warriors, poorly armed and thinly protected. As a result, the
Yari Ashigaru will often run from battle when confronted by a superior
enemy force. The Yari Ashigaru should therefore be positioned along the
flanks, hopefully out of harms way, or stationed towards the rear to
protect some of the ranged combat units.
* Seek an alliance with the Portuguese traders as soon as they make landfall.
Their arrival will let you acquire guns for your forces and eventually
enable you to build powerful gun factories.
* Its a good idea to spy on your prospective enemies before attacking them.
Send a spy or emissary into an enemy-occupied territory to determine the
enemys overall strength.
Super Army:
———–
In Shogun warlord edition build a legendary sword dojo and legendary palace,
Amoury, Sword Smith and a drill dojo. With the Sword Dojo Train Kensai. They
almost invincible warriors. There is only one to a unit. Put them in a army
by themselves. It will take a long time but it is worth it. Once you have a
army of them use them for battle. You must control them yourselves until the
general have some honor. All you need to do is just charge the enemy and they
will do the rest. After the general has honor you can automatically resolve
the conflict. 16 of the kensai can take on 2000 troops on their own and suffer
no casualties.
Cheap Victory Method:
———————
In games where the only objective is eliminating the enemy leaders, the objective
can be solved simply by flooding the enemys home territory with dozens of
untrained ninjas and order them all to attack the enemy daimyo. Theyll have
about a 10% chance of success… which means if you send ten, at least one will
probably succeed.
