There is only one event where this happens, and it's the Ashikaga and Hara alliance. It'd be better if you just paid the Ashikaga money while you took on the Tokugawa for Senhime before fighting them.

At the same breath, defeat Ashikaga, leave Hara alone. Defeat Natori first.

This will train you to handle two countries at once.

I think the Tenshi also attacked when I attacked the Iga (or vice versa). In general, and my memory is blurry because I've played this in two massive sessions of about 12 hours each, it felt like I was playing tennis or something; batting one enemy away only for another to bounce back. I don't really play strategy games, though, so maybe there's all sorts of acquired common sense that I'm just missing.

Iga should not be attacked as it breaks one seal and it really does nothing for you. Tenshikyou will always declare war against you because of plot reasons. Beating them is not a priority because you get nothing out of it except wasted turns of trying to conquer their territory, Iga declaring war several turns later, as well as Asai fighting you hard.

It's better not to conquer those two. Iga can be left after the Xavier event and when you've conquered Hojo, Uesugi and Mori.

This game reminds me of so many other games in the way in which it's ticking along really nicely, really enjoyably, and then they go and fuck it up by fucking with the nature of the game in favour of plot. It's almost like if Mario became a fighting game for the last 3 levels.

True Route is the route for you, because you become Kou-hime's Oniichan in what is basically the Kou route.

>even if he doesn't fuck them, are they awesome characters to use in battle or what not?
Kou is a good spear unit, just not as awesome as Sen, and not as powerful as Teru, which I will argue as the strongest spearman unit in the game.

Kojika has a good one-time battle use ability that can diversify your army battles. Also, you just can't help but recruit her if you've read her entire story throughout the game. Just don't recruit Nozomi before beating the Mori, or she dies a horrible death after getting raped.

Preparations are when your opponents are starting to charge their lasers. Ninjas can stop those. And Ninjas can assassinate pretty troublesome units. Since ninjas are pretty useless for tanking, that's a good trade-off.

When Rance's satisfaction gets to a certain level, you can get more fans as the bonus.

The assassination can work on an enemy with 900 troops if your ninja only has about 400. It's really quite random in that way. The preparation thing is when certain super-powerful (and annoying moves) take a turn to prepare. The only way to stop them is to kill the unit or to shuriken them. Ninja also get skills that raise their def by 70%, lower the encounter rate in dungeons and raise the advantage in battle (the % at the top). They can also be pretty powerful when you have more troops with them. Like in Advance Wars, the more troops (the HP, if you like) the more damage they do.

This is the opposite to certain special boss fights and to dungeon fights. In those cases, HP doesn't affect damage, their level does. Normally level is meaningless.

I spend books on Rance and Kenshin equally. In my experience, the AI just disables Kenshin in faster fashion than they could Rance. For some odd reason. In any event, I always have them fight in the same battle unless it's blitz time (only three territories left in a province).

And I did this because I thought Kenshin was the better unit. But outside of that -1, Rance had the better unit in actual combat for me.

Kanami was scouting around in Houjou territory, where she is now considered a rogue ninja of the local ninja, the Fuma. She gets captured and is about to be split in half before Rance arrives with Suzume to save the day.

only true reference for unit strength, since if you can survive there you can breeze through the lower difficulties.

they're the exact same troop type. and kenshin has the better stats. and the ability to use one of many stat-boosting items that make her even more powerful. and the ability to eventually take a passive skill that doesn't suck, unlike Rance's regen.

Rance can also get a new passive ability in the True route.

Just to get this straight, I need 10 points at the end in order to be able to kill the monkey in the next playthrough, right? How the fuck do I get points? I must have like -30 by now.
