Ok, I heard it somewhere that if you have temple before embracing christinality, you can still train monks, but this seems weirder than that.

My Daimyo became christian early on in this game. I have built quite a few churches and the cathedral option is on.

Now my home province's building window always list temple as an option, I thought it was fine because I had tranquil guarden and decent fortifications way before convering to christian, so that option has always been there.

I start to feel weird when I accidently build a tranquil guarden in another province where I already build a church.

Guess what? After the tranquil guarden was complete, I was able to build temple! I was amazed so I save the game, start building the temple, and when the temple was halfly complete, I started to see the option of famous temple. In another word, it seems as if my Daimyo hadn't changed the religion at all. And yet all but two of my provinces are 100% christian.

BTW, I was playing this no-monk game. But hordes from east are becoming 5000+ strong on quite a few provinces and I need quality troops and I need them bad.

Of course, there is always no-dachi, but someone from this forum (forgot his name, my bad) gave them a perfect description : they are supposed to be elite-troops, but still die like fodder.

I lost my nerve during a castle assault. I was already INSIDE the fortess, there were only 51 honor 1 samuri archers left, ARROW DEPLETED. I charged at them head on with honor 5 No-Dachi (47 men), LOST 23! Gee! No wonder they always suffer heavy casualty, since even archers give them hard time in hand-to-hand combat!

you were always able to do that, even in the original. If you got rid of all your priests, building temples is the way to go back to Buddhism from Christianity. If you keep both Churches and Temples, I imagine you'll have lots of religious revolts soon.

Actually, there isn't any problem at all, you just keep a church in the temple province and in all the adjacent ones. Keeps those darn Buddhists right where they belong, training Sohei to die for you. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif

Yeah No-dachi dies easily, but if you tech them up a bit they become much better and still are cheaper then monks.

Have you tried the Japanese Nagi cav they are quite good against ND and WM.

hehe, that's always been so. I thought in the Xpack, when you change religion, all facilityies and troops from the old religion would be disbanded/destroyed.

BTW, when you make the treaty with the portuguse and build the trading post, but no churches, or when you sign with the dutch after having become christian, and when you train monks or build temples being christian, your religion status changes to ATHEIST. Try right clicking your campaign in the "load game" menu, you will be surprised how "modern" ancient japanese daimyos were LOL
