Discharge the Honourable: Chosokabe (Legendary, Domination)

[Maltz]

Thoughts #06: One enemy at a time

Nihon's #1 "Daimyo" magazine published its latest military power ranking of all clans. Our clan unfortunately ranks very poorly, down to the Weak category, although our economic power is ranked in as Moderate. Therefore, we score quite high on the fat meat index.

Aggressive and ambitious clans would think that Chosokabe is a loose passive fish and declare war on us as soon as they run out of enemies. But in fact, we probably will stay high on the "fat meat" index forever, since we are the only clan in Nihon that does not print its own money and recruit self-replicating soldiers.

We have to be careful not to make multiple enemies, or we will be overwhelmed by their wealth and number. Therefore, the hostility of the Bessho clan, who honorably joined Miyoshi's side against us, must be discharged before we find another enemy to fight.
