Well and army made up of Yari Samurai and Monks should dominate. YS are probably my favourite unit (apart from teppo of course). Like Sasaki said earlier in the thread they make up the backbone of your force. Players more familiar with MTW's spearmen types should not confuse YS with those units. They are much more capable. Yari Ashigaru are less dependable. Use them to pad out your armies and as cheap garrison units but don't rely on them too much.
