at what honour do yari ashigaru beat yari samurai honour 2's on a level playing field.

i've been studying khans price chart and i can get honour 5 yari ashi's for 276 koku against honour 3 yari samurai at 274 koku.

i'd even be prepared to to spend 276 koku on yashi5's against ysamu2's only costing my opponent 200 koku if it meant a good chance of beating them.76 extra koku well spend.

i'm still at work so would even appreciate some experiments done on my behalf in the next few hours till i get home on totomi.

cheers anyway
