Samurai Warlords Mini Comp. II
-Battle Report-
The second battle fought on Sunday evening, 21st May, was a bloody massacre which wasn't left alive by many, be it Taisho or Ashigaru.
The clash of the two forged alliances was fierce and immediate.
Team A consisted of members of VDM clan plus myself, facing Team B, consisting of two Mizu's plus the two well known players Tomi and Tempiic.
Code:
Team A: Team B:
Uesugi Cain Takeda Yuuki
Imagawa Ras Ukita Tempiic
Hojo Buu Satomi CBR
Oda Alexandros Shimazu Tomisama
The battle took place on Mizulands_19. The terrain of this relatively flat map is a mixture between wooded areas and open grassy areas
with a strung out clear space dividing the two deployment areas.
Overview:
When the morning fog cleared and the Taishos got a clear view on the opponents positions, the Uesugi, who took a very forward position,
where surprised by the Takeda and Ukita forces, already lurking in the woods.
They needed assistance fast if they weren't to be overrun.
Lord Hojo, who had deployed in the center, needed nobody to tell him
what to do and immediatly advanced over the clear space,
drawing fire from the opposing Shimazu.
Lord Oda, on the right flank, withdraw his forces into the place where Hojo had left, being threatened by the Satomi during his retreat.
But Oda had his flanks covered with Teppos and could advance relatively unharmed and in good order.
Lord Imagawa, positioned on the left flank, was obviously busy inside his maku with something, since his forces didn't move at all.
When he heard the sound of the signal conches, he stepped outside his maku and ordered an advance to Uesugi's left.
The idea was to reinforce the flank and secure the Uesugi's vanguard.
The distance to the wooded area where the Uesugi where fighting was far
and he ordered his men to run.
Meanwhile Lord Hojo and Oda where already involved in melee with Shimazu and Satomi forces. Their flank seemed to be secure, though.
When Imagawa finally arrived at the woods, which the depleted Uesugi forces
had held so bravely, the combined forces where able to repell the Takeda and Ukita.
Lord Takeda was reportedly been shot during this fight by a lowly Teppo Ashigaru.
On the other side of the battle line, Team B, gained superiority over Oda's forces and routed almost the complete army.
Some units could unite with remnants of the Hojo and withdraw to the wooded area in the middle of the map.
Satomi and Shimazu forces where behind their lines and especially the Satomi Teppos where taking many lives.
The remaining units of Team A gathered in the woods, reformed and tried to end the battle when Satomi's Teppos where handicapped
by sudden rainfalls. But the last units of Imagawa, charging towards Satomi, lost their spirit when their Taisho was killed by Satomi's Yari Cavalry.
The sudden morale drop also affected the last units of Hojo and Uesugi and a genral rout ended the battle.
The two battles I fought were fun and also taught me the one or other thing.
It's very interesting to see which units are taken by players. So far, it seems
that all units fulfill their tasks and perform well. Mayn thanks again to Yuuki and all the other MP players who helped to develop the stats.
Also a big thank you to the VDM players, who abandoned their mod DUX to play with us.
And a special 
to Lord CBR the winner and Tomisama the Organizer.
