Anyone been playing the historical campaigns?
I'm stuck on the 3rd battle in Hideyoshi's the battle of Negoroji.One has to get 100 men inside the castle and Hideyoshi must survive before the timer runs out.It wouldn't be so bad except the AI has Kensai in 4 man units that rush out of the castle to kick your a$$ while your trying to take down his 180 heavy cav and 200 muskets that are outside the castle before you face the monks inside.I thought Kensai were supposed to be LONE swordsmen.One by himself is tough enough,but two sets of 4 Kensai per unit is definitely a challenge.I thought they were just very small high honor No-dachi units.A few volleys from my archers will settle their hash,yeah right,I put the pointer on them to see wtf why they were still alive,and kicking my Yari's tail and yipes; a four man Kensai wrecking crew WHO REFUSE TO DIE.Kind of reminded me of the Three Musketeers movie lol.Boy could I use a machine gun.
I'm lucky to have 100 exhausted men survive to rush the castle gate,and then they have to fight the 2-3 units of monks to get in.
Any suggestions?

it took me ages, use one yari and the heavy cavs to kill the muskets, move the archers away from the castle and shootas much of the heavy cav behind them as you can, whilst marching all your yari to keep that cav busy, now move the Nd away from the castle but keep them seperate from each ohtre. THe trick is to draw the kensai and monks out of the castle, then rush it with all your cav. Eventually it'll work htough it might take a few goes to perfect
