Onin no Jidai

[Tomisama]

I love guns too CB
This is just for a few battles and a minor competition, if we find it interesting.


I am trying to do a little more research on this period to reinforce the following. But so far, working from what I hope is good memory, I believe some other limitations might be in order.

For this period, along with no guns, there were also no ashigaru yet. And I believe the naginata was the pole weapon for both infantry and cavalry, with the yari to come a bit later also.

I could be wrong, but am posting what I think is right, to open discussion on what units armies might be composed of.

The proposal right now is for, no Yari, no Teppo, and no special units (Hatamoto, Ninga).

That leaves:

Heavy Cavalry
Naginata Cavalry
Cavalry Archers

Samurai Archers
No Dachi (maybe)
Naginata
Warrior Monks


Was also thinking about a reduction in koku, say down to 7k, but am not sure about this.

Edit : added "maybe"
