I think there are different grades of purism between STW players. I'm not talking about the use of cheats like .muchkoku. or similar, they are immoral even in single player mode. But there are some strategies whose use is valuated in different ways. What do you think about...?
1-Save the game before autumn to prevent poor harvests. Bad harvests are too usual at expert level, and this is a seriuos handicap specially playing shimazu or Mori.
2-The use of Geishas to kill high rank enemy Taishos, Heirs and Daimyos. Some say that convert enemy clans into ronin makes the game boring, other say if you don't do it when you can, they DO IT against you.
3-The use of ports for long distance invasions. Some purists of STW say this is not ethic since AI clans never attack you this way. But I think if Takeda and Imagawa use ports to reinforce their provinces, why you not?
What about you?
