It is extremely easy:

When there are no rules or regulations to break, there can be no cheat or cheaters.
I believe this game can be played in various ways and if we set some good rules, inclined to realistic assemblying of armies and with unit costs reflecting the effective performances of the real units on the fields of that point in time...

...then we can really say we have bought a simulation, where the art of war is important and techniques, formations, troop type and morale lead to victory.
As things are now, i believe (quite frankly i am sure) that honor unbalances the game to the point of turning it into a matter of wise use of koku...and just it.

Whenever i play with rules, i have fun, no matter if i win or lose. Deceit, use of terrain, manouvering and tactics in general brought victory and since by rules both armies are roughly equivalent and realistically balanced there lies the way of fun.
Let's try then you will see.
