Title: Battle of Mayu-Shiro
Post by: FierceKitty on 23 November 2014, 01:26:41 AM
This will be fought today between the forces of Oda Nobunaga and Takeda Shingen. Wish me well, brothers-in-arms, since the last time I played Japanese I got turned into chawan mushi.

Briefly revisiting relevance, the castle saw plenty of action in Sunday's battle. My party of ninjas were sadly captured trying to set fire to the keep, and a garrison of archers and musketeers blasted away a lot of the party of monks and ashigaru that I detailed to take it by storm, though not before the ashigaru had blown a hole in the gates to let the monks in (after 80% loss; but then again, Japanese accept losses like that in a basic training exercise). Before the castle could be captured, however, Nobunaga and Ieyasu had both fallen in a massed Takeda cavalry assault, and their army lost heart.

The Tokugawa player quite rightly observed that the keep is lurching a bit to one side. Earthquakes, however. I fully intended to make the leaning tower do that. This isn't meant to be Himeji, hang it all.

OK, back to calls for Mexicans.

I'm afraid only the castle was photographed.
