I think the game valuates how fast you can finish the game, i only got a S with a 3 star nation, in less than 90 turns.Β like, you have to spam units an conquer their castles fast ΰ² _ΰ² ). what I also saw is that when they are your allies/subordinates they dont deploy their units but when they are your enemies they spam all their generals even when they only have 1 province. Just like the old daysΒ On a positive note the spam now has a negative side-effect for AI. If opponents deploy more troops than they can feed, they will lose 5 moral points every turn. I think it is a huge step forward in comparison to EW7 when 1* state could produce without negative consequences more legions than Rome in her heyday. Bad thing is that AI has uncountable number of generals at its disposal. But that makes conquests more interesting than those of EW7.

Can anybody give insight/opinion on the 12 pounder cannon? I don't know about this one but Destroyer of Provinces is amazing. With the right general it can do wonders.

You mean the 16 pound cannon? My opinion of that one is if you want to use his full potential you have to be statict so the cannon receives +crit chance & +crit damage, but is almost imposible to use for the enemy generals will aim for the cannons first. Is like a downgrade of destroyer of province, plus it doesnt have splash damage.
Just like stoic said, the destroyer of province is the best cannon, with the right general, is the best for his splash damage, and because you receive a bonus id you attack from the seas (+20%).
Little tip: always put the best horses for the cannons, since they dont have mobility, the +2-3 mov from the horse is a big boost in my opinion.

Apparently, in addition to speed, the score in conquest is affected by the number of cities (possibly the number of units killed/built and factions destroyed by the player), which suggests more aggression than diplomacy. Moreover, diplomacy in Shogun is less favorable than in ew7 for a quick victory: unstable vassals, deterioration in the attitude of all factions when they refuse to help an ally, and so on.

I will lie to you but I forgot π
. I dont remember if I constructed a castle to appear or if I bought it in the bankin store, I guess the items are random so it should appear when the store refresh. If not then you need conquer takendom. Btw this is how far I have gone, but I cannot pass the kokura castle where the last hime is located in the west side, those battleships are a pain in the *Auto corrected* π₯Ί

Iβm otherwise kinda stuck right now at 87.Β You should pick it if you are into conquest (also the book of Hideyoshi is in paid battle pass so you won't miss anything equiping it). If you are only into campaign, the horse (this make he fly through the map), sword and armor of his set have more impact and also you have the Oda's book so that make a set).

After 2 days doing conquest I realized that Oda and Takeda spawn from thin air. π€£
First conquest I overwhelm them with Heavy Cavalry so I don't mind much and though that they escaped somehow and I missed it.
Second conquest I try to focus them down so enemy won't have general, turn out they keep respawning. Also at first they seem to spawn from military building so I let one of my unit stand on each building first to prevent respawn. Then they start spawning wherever they can insight their territory. Also the first time they appear (2 level 2 tier 2 units) is with army much worse than respawned version (level 4 special tier 3 units). So it turned out that best strategy is to capture castle and ignore them. π

what I always do is closing their paths putting militias around them so they move to other direction or slow them with the watch tower, good think the IA is bad otherwise you will have oda attacking 3 times π

I just now finished my first expedition a second ago and it seems like those sweeps also count against the number of sweeps sadly. So the max of 4 rly is max i guess Yes, therefore I think that conquering 100 provinces is our next midterm goal. 4 is current max because we don't have enough cities at current update. Have to wait for 100 cities to be released and spend 500000 gold for next upgrade. π

Iβm at 87 and I can count more than 13 cities in sight: Not that Iβm really getting much further anyway since thereβs a couple missions I canβt figure out yet.
