View Full Version : Most important Unit
OK im just trying to keep these threads alive and kicking http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif
So which unit is a must on the battle field?
Guns if no rain and protected well?
Or is it now the Cav Archers?
Which unit would u not go in battle without?

Yari Samurai. Good against horses and at stopping. Without them you are in deep ...water!

Don't use only honour, use theforce, too.

Most important unit - whichever one you make your general - so choose wisely. Lose him, and your battle just got MUCH harder.
Again, personally, I like Naginata infantry due to their tank status.
Qapla!

The naginata infantry is clearly the least important unit (winks at BSM http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif )
Cavs r the best.
And I don't use ANY ys and I still win.

Gah!
The most important unit is not in your army.
The most important unit is in the enemy's army.
Identify it and cut its head off.

The most important unit on the battlefield is you, because without a good leader at the helm, even the greatest and most well made armies are but dust in the wind of fate.
But if I had to indentify a unit that you really can't do without (unless you really like Yari Cav) is the Yari Samurai. That is because without them, your army is as good as ridden down. Not to mention there fine fighting ability.

Renember, enlightment is a function of will power, not of physical strength."- Shang-ji Yang, essays on mind and matter.
There is no one unit more important than any other. Takes an army to beat an army. That's what I say anyway.
OH. Unless you have a Kensai ONLY. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif
But I do prefer no-dachi or nags.

The only problem with making your gen a Nagi is if he rounts hes as good as dead atleast if your general is HC it has a decent chance of making it out alive

That's actually a tough question. In single-player, my mounted archers rule on almost 80% of the maps. In multi-player, I wouldn't be caught dead without a good many yari Sam's (actually, I've been caught dead repeatedly in MP - may be time for a re-think http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif)
But fer shure, choose your general wisely, as they said above.

GAH! I agree! http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/eek.gif
But... if I had to pick... the most important unit in MY army would have to be the Arquebusier... http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/tongue.gif
the most important unit is the one which you forgot to buy/upgrade/move in time, etc. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif
Well, if you are talking about the online Sengoku game, try playing without musketts and see how far you get.

I never never never start a battle without at least 2 or 3 heavy cavs. They rule. I always put my Gen in a hc unit. After the fighting begins you can use him to fill up wholes or flank the enemy.

there isnt a "Most Important Unit" in a battle. every unit has its own purpose/role in the army and depending on teh -ever changing- situation it can become less or more important during a game.
but in short, the most important unit is the one that brings you victory and teh enemies head on a pole. that unit should be rewarded.

Hey Puzz
"Well, if you are talking about the online Sengoku game, try playing without musketts and see how far you get."
I often play without any musks online. Sometimes I use SA (who actually beat a musk) or I use Cav Archers or even only two BN to distract the enemy and then run over his gunners with my elite HC and my ND.
