I love the contrast between the whining babies on the TWC and the calm manner of posters here.
I have to say, the DLC is somewhat sparse. I hope that if they release another DLC it will include more. For instance, more factions, like Shigemasa Oyamada said. Imagawa are a no-brainer, apparently they were playable in Shogun. Plus their starting position would be insanely difficult, not because they are surrounded by enemies, but because they are surrounded by allies - powerful allies. Backstab one and you backstab them all. Asai are historic and would add another playable faction to the Kansai, which altough being the historical heartland of Japan is devoid of any playables so far unless you preordered for the Hattori. Miyoshi are interesting, they certainly caught my eye. Spread out over three landmasses (actually two because of the land bridge), they would be fun albiet not too challenging to play. Another few factions also attracted me. Hatakeyama have the most insane starting position in the game, and are historic. Otomo start Christian which would make for a unique campaign, although unfortunately they have no historical significance. Tsutsui have a cool name - can't beat that! The Ashikaga would be fascinating for the prospect of reuniting Japan under your rule once again. There could be all sorts of unique features and events worked into that campaign if CA would be willing to spend the time to do it. Either the Amako or the Yamana would help fill the gap in the Chugoku, I find that there being only one playable clan there is too few.
