    Yes patdj, buying the rebels is a great idea, I really hadn't even thought about it.

    I also think approaching from the west is the best idea. This will leave the eastern border as it is, which is quite strong, and strengthen western border also giving me the opportunity to bribe the rebels. The only province I might take in the eastern side is Kaga.

    And so that's it. The last few provinces fell quite easily. Uesugi was defeated in the next two seasons by Oda, I was too late to break the siege. Then as I closed the net on Oda he began sending many more Ninjas my way, killing one of my heirs and that Geisha I had hanging around. I autresolved a bit towards the end as it was pretty obvious what the outcome would be, but I did fight most of the battles including Owari, where I somehow turned up to a bridge assault with no YS or Naginta units. It went well however, partly due to the fact that it was a dual bridge map, but then I didn't take much advantage of this except for sending two units of Cavarly Archers across the second bridge with the main force assaulting the first.

    So on to the next campaign.

    So much koku!

    Funny, I never ended up fighting on both ends with the takeda or imagawa.

    The Churches + Cathedral and all of the ports bring in a stupid amount of income. I didn't really need it all and had the taxes on normal from about 1585 onwards.

    Neither do I usually, but in this case gaining Imagawa's lands made a big difference. I did end up losing Aki to the persistent Ronin but then I began developing and expanding from Hizen.

    106000 koku is indeed a lot, luckily I like rice...

    Anyway I've just started a Mori/Hard/Huge Units/1550 campaign and I might give up on it. I'm holding from Nagato to Hoki/Bitchu and my income is quite steady. I can train heavy cavalry and Monks already so I could go to the west and remove Shimazu or head east and take on the rebels and Oda. It seems rather Linear, so I may give up and start an Imagawa campaign instead, or go back to the "Sengoku Jidai" original campaign.

    Hmm... Never actually played STW, so I have a question- Is inheriting land(such as in the early part of this campaign) more common in STW in comparison to MTW?
    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
