Okay,
Who has the oldest Daimyo? Clink has a Mori Daimyo who is doing well at 102 years! He isn't as chipper as he was when he was young, but I'm sure he and his bodyguards are still able to trample a few Ashiguru Crossbowmen.
Can anyone beat 102?
If so, try to post some proof and you could have the respect of the forum and braggring rights to boot!

In RL, because the records are not complete we really don't know how old certain people are.
At anyrate I had some heir who was 106 or something.

Several "official" Japanese chronicles state that several Emperors in the Yamato period lived to be more than two hundred. Of course, they were of divine descent, so...

And, of course, any proof solypsist-san shows in screenshots is to be taken as 100% fact. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif
I wouldn't be surprised if Soly has the longest living daimyo. After all, the daimyo probably has discovered cloning...or how to meld with one of the AT-ATs or Mechs Soly's 'uncovered'.
Personally, I remember a daimyo easily near his 100th birthday...it's almost as if the game stops doing 'death checks' after a certain year in a character's life and if it didn't take him down at a certain point, it forgets. My favorite, though, is the never-aging generals. If you're careful enough, you can take a 1530 general and having him around still fit and hardy in 1630 (or beyond if you can manage to keep a daimyo around long enough). Of course, I guess it would be disappointing to some to see one of their favorite secondary generals who's risen to four or five stars suddenly be replaced by his one or no star son. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif
My oldest was about 89-90...quite young considering...

When I posted this, I assumed some modders and other riff raff http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif might try and pull a fast one, especially given the value of the prize for winning this contest.

Or should I say W.W.S.T.D and start making all sorts of clothing and other such merchandise?
BTW can I be really off topic in my own thread?

It was me Kraellin, in the old STW you can save every season and when you load it the next season will be different. But I didn't said my Daimyo lived up to 160, I said 128 http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif

The one that's not Mongol Invasion or Warloard. I don't know what to call it, the first STW.
