First battle is at the start. (This part is the start of a new session.) The first battle is a defense against the Uesugi by Cosmic. Pure ashigaru vs ashigaru battle, a somewhat mundane fight that consists of holding the yari ashigaru line against the weaker yari asigaru, before cleaning up the ineffective bow ashigaru. Some campaign map activity follows, before I stupidly decide to fight a naval battle manually. It turned into a mangled, hectic mess with my ships annoyingly, randomly deciding to rout the field before Cosmic's partition even arrives to help. Luckily, my general survives the farce of an encounter. Not exactly a racing start to the session. Then at about 20 minutes, I decide to use my Daimyo to attack the Shogunate army outside Kyoto, thereby luring the other army outside its walls to support. I have a chance to crush the defenders while they do not have their walls, and take it. I have many yari ashigaru that are heavily buffed, and 2 matchlocks, which I intend to use to their full and devastating effect. A long, cautious and nervous battle ensues, of which the majority and remainder of this video is comprised. I will let you decide it if went well. There were definitely points where it could have went very, very badly. CosmicContrarian and I play a Co-op campaign on the infamous "Legendary" difficulty. I choose the "Shimazu" and Cosmic utilises the "Date". http://www.youtube.com/CosmicContrarian Cosmic's Channel ------------------------ be among the first to like my new facebook page. http://www.facebook.com/Volound and subscribe for more http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=volound
