So can I just start a new file? This is just dragging on forever, I'm on my 3rd day of 3-4 hours sleep here, goddamn. Is there going to be some major event to help me, because if not, I'm seriously thinking about chalking this up as a fail first playthrough and starting again. Without too much spoilers, any hints on how to prevent Dragon Army? Or do they come in any route? Because what about Demon King?

>> No.7436996

The Demon King only appears if you fuck up in a few very specific ways.

Just keep fighting it out, because eventually you do get help. Can't remember when it happens though.

>> No.7436997

they don't recover. The more you fight the more you win. fight more.

Also you failed pretty hard that game.

Why did you vassal Ashikaga? Vassaling anyone is a pretty bad idea (except for tenshi sect if you want Seigan and Genri)

>> No.7437019

>>7436971
You can start a new file if you want. No one stopping you. But if you last long enough while protecting Owari, the game auto-wins all those territories back. The chances of you being strong enough to defeat the DA, however, is still very low after the fact because you haven't obtained the high tier commanders it seems.

>> No.7437021

Haha yea I figured, I lost all the other countries to Demon Army, even Miko Institute, so I prob lost a whole bunch of girls and events.
>they don't recover
That's what's keeping me playing, but they still haven't conquered the Raccoon Dog family, the Hanny family, or Takuga family. If they take over those, won't they increase their troops? GODDAMN I'M IN AN ENDLESS RECURSION OF TIME

>> No.7437029

Protip: conquering Iga and Asakura very early isn't a good thing.
Protip2: conquering Tenshi and not vassaling them by waiting it out until after Honnouji is also a recipe for trouble.
Protip3: not getting Senhime, Natori, the Mouri maids, or declaring war on both Hojo and Uesugi at the same time isn't going to help you.

>> No.7437033

Just start over. If you didn't use it, I recommend you follow the "three moves in thirteen turns" guide.

>the game auto-wins all those territories back.

This, so you can keep fighting.
Alternatively, you can restart and play much more efficiently, storming everywhere like a baka gaijin you are. Here is the sample order:
Hara > Ashikaga > Miko > Tokugawa > Imagawa > Uesugi-Houjou(at the same time) > take Tenshin biggest province so you can declare war on Akashi, don't touch the small > Akashi-Tanegashima(war on both, only capture Tanegashima since Akashi has a gourd, clear Senhime with Akashi auto lose) > war on Mouri (do their challenge and capture Kiku) > Takuga > Uncurse Mouri > Rush Takeda > > > > Honnoji > > > > Finish Mouri and Akashi

I learned vassaling sucks after Ashikaga, I saw the "make enemy surrender" option, I thought hurrdurrr let's try that, and learned the hard way that it sucks.

>if you want Seigan
Fuck yea I'm vassaling Tenshi next time

I don't know who's a High Tier commander, so I probably don't have any worth mentioning. My newest was Hakkin Dasan, and Kou just entered. Here's my troops at this moment. Man I miss those times I had around 20k g

If you're fast enough, you don't need to declare war on both Tanegashima and Akashi.

Not conquering Tenshi provinces can give you this speed. Doing a quick assault on Tanegashima actually prevents Mouri from conquering Akashi.

I also do the reverse. I normally attack Mouri before I ever go after Uesugi and Houjo. It's easier to fight Houjo and Uesugi when I have the maid army.

>> No.7437063

It's been a while since I played Kenshin route but I recall it being largely a cakewalk. You can optimize things by leaving specific territories unconquered before you enter the path, for easy fights afterwards, but it's not really necessary. The random dudes and a few leftovers should be enough.

I'm on Isoroku 5-stars; is at war with everyone except one-eyed. I'm building up captains & economy. What should I do?

1) Engaging Mouri cause their troops have been building up too high

2) Attack masamune to grab more land and sat. Will probably take 10-20 turns as they are ridiculously strong also. This will of course give mouri time to increase in size eve further and since I dont have hibachi I'd also lose out a +5 stat.

3) Take advantage of the peace and continue with improving captains & economy.

Well, you seem much more experienced than me, but my general experience is that it never pays off to stagnate. There aren't enough advantages to peace, compared to the risks of not expanding quickly enough.

I think maybe I'd try to take on Masamune, since they will probably be hard to handle after the Mouri, when you'll be bordering the demon army, and then try to take Akashi just as you're about to finish off Masamune and they're hopefully too weak to give you trouble in combination with Mouri.

Unless you're not planning to get any of the generals from Masamune, in which case it seems like too much effort for too little gain in my opinion.

+ Protective charm on shibata will nullify that one shot
+ Ai has remove status (2), which will remove all of their buff in one go. Then keep buffing with Ai, of which the shimazu tactician will keep removing and they'd cancel out each other.

Her attack has a chance to instant-ko ala assassinate, his doesnt. In higher difficulties, Tanegashima would most likely never take down a footman even with 2 shots as you are almost always outnumbered. On the other hand, you can plan your battle around her guaranteed assassination[1] before any of your other high-dps units get to act. Giving her the working bee gives her 2 more shots, making her the best assassin in the whole damn game. She simply scales infinitely better.

[1]: Assassination chance is calculated pre-turn. If it work, it'd also work every reload and vice versa.

To beat that, pick Souun to kill him. If you have Demon Kentarou, then he will draw with that because while Kentarou cannot fight that dude, he has the invincibility barrier.
