Here it is. For me.

1. This you need to get all of the Western Army.Its nice because the revolt for your men. There it is.... Free Army!

a. Use Emmissary. For Imagawa and Useiga.

2. Use the Tax. You can use the "War Taxes" I dont remember who said that ...Shai? Low to High..Back and forth. It works. Caution:Watch out,because you forgot it..oopps.. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/biggrin.gif.Plus it works in till it is about 15 yrs or about that and then revolt!

3. This is a good place the Farmer Ashi. Make whole alot of Farmer Ashi maybe 10 Companies.The garrison for the Kai Province. For some reason imagawa would not challenge it.Plus defintly he will not challange Kenshin Takeda.

4.Now we KILL!!! That damned Hojo! On the First year get Musashi Province.

5. Then North. Raze the province Kozuke

6. Now East. Raze the province Shimutsuke

7. Now we halt...for a while. Because Usegi Clan is probably got the Hitachi. S0 what and see what we can do. May be you can get Mutsu or Hitachi.. And then North and west.Thats it.

This is the Way of the Takeda! BANZAI!!

This is done in about 5 yrs. That Calvary is mean! At the beginning.

I agree with you that playing Takeda on expert we just need to completely give up the west. Or we have no chance to survive either sides.

Hojo can be completely wiped out in about 1 or 2 years even if we automatically resolve all the battle. Uesugi is the next, then imagawa... etc, very typical "rich east" development. Takeda with their speed is definitely great in catching enemy daimyo. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif

Shimosa is easy if you take it right after you grab Musashi! I once took it while losing a whopping 3 -- thats THREE -- men in the entire bridge attack! And half of those were friendly kills at that!

Well, once you take Musashi, Hojo usually lacks range units to defend Shimosa. So if you attack fast, you will face only a handful of YA or YS, but no archers. Your CA can turn them into human sushi. Thats the secret to the otherwise insanely low losses attacking the bridge province! If the enemy has even 1 archer, you will lose more than 3 units just crossing the planks!

I like cavalry archers when facing the hordes in a constantly defense province such as Mino and Shinano. When I don't have the money to buy both cavlary and archers, CA holds both the function of shooting the coming hordes as well as charging downhill and chasing the running away crowd.

There was one battle at Shinano where one CA unit killed 268, losing 10 http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif

Getting back to the original topic, as Takeda I like to leave a garrison in the one western province with the port, so I can evactuate if necessary, but it will still slow down Mori. Too often I was hit by a Red Tide bursting through Oda. Leaving only one archer and two ashi will make Mori waste a lot of time and men garrisoning his own internal borders. Just my two koku.
