Dip 55 Hagakure Diplomacy Spring 1574 Results

[the_orange1]

All hell is breaking loose in central Japan now, as Uesugi and Hojo pile into Oda from the north, while Asakura tries desperately to fend off Chosokabe and Oda. Mori is holding onto a couple of armies, but he's now favourite to be the next casualty. All orders were in well on time this round, so thankyou very much and keep it up.

THOUGHT FOR THE PHASE:

"Nakano Jin'emon, said 'Learning such things as military tactics is useless. If one does not strike out by simply closing his eyes and rushing into the enemy, even if it is only one step, he will be of no use.' This was the opinion of Iyanaga Sasuke."
Tsunetomo, Yamamoto "Hagakure, Book of the Samurai"
