This is probably gonna be a pretty hot take, but I’m starting to think that artillery just sucks in this game. For nearly everything. Except for certain niche cases or in the very early game in Campaign and Tenkabito if you have access to that. For conquest I certainly think it sucks outside of the very late stage. It feels overspecialized for one purpose but has two major weaknesses that prevent it from doing even that properly. It’s slow (unless you have rank 6 Ujiyasu), and more cripplingly it can’t attack from 1 range. That’s a pretty huge deal since it means it can’t disable city healing and attack it at once, and action economy is so limited in the short term. You can’t have tons of ashigarus out by then. I find myself attacking cities with archers and teppo generals from 1 range a LOT just to disable city healing. I can often oneshot the city behind the garrison like that. Teppo (and the other unit types too) also has several generals that has an active that can fairly reliably take out the garrison WITHOUT using ending their turn. And then it’s the most expensive and least available unit type in the game to boot. So anytime you’re not using it specifically to do damage to city walls it’s just feels cost-inefficient. And you can barely ever use it in campaign. Also has ANYONE ever used Furanki Cannon, like ever? Ujiyasu comes out really late now and Sorin is only used if I’m going for turncount, which I haven’t done very much lately anyway. It’s not 100% useless, I know I used Ujimasa early on when I started, so it was probably helpful then (his availability being very likely helps). But I definetly don’t think it’s good overall, and it probably doesn’t help that it feels like ET has basically forgotten that it is a unit type in this game, well, except by starting to put 1-3 range on the bosses in Martial Arena. What do you mean, those cannon are the soul reason why castle aren't a problem any more. You just need one max out war gear of your choice and a general like Hojo Ujiyasu, Hojo Ujimasa, and Otomo Sorin, and your good to go against any fortification or castles that is hard to enter. And just a tip for those reading this, for me the best thing to get when your reach a new prestige is always mobility. Like I could take out Oda, Takeda, Uesugi clans easily then I was playing as the Rokkaku clan cuz I was able to taking castles and positioning troops in key points thank to the increase of mobility. It especially helped cuz before each clan would respond to my attacks, I was able to take 2-3 castles in one turn. And it also helped that I got one war gear and the general Hojo Ujiyasu to take care of the level 4-5 castles that would slow my advance to take more land. I didn't even need summon other general except for Kinoshita Hideyoshi, I need his mobility and active skill to take care of defense and offense attacks against the enemies main force. The thing is that I generally find myself better off even against cities by not starting artillery though, I'm not having an issue with that.

I guess we all have our different way of tackling this problems. Anyway for those reading this, that is your go to general and troop that you get first in the tavern? For me it Hojo Ujiyasu with mortar.

For me it Hojo Ujiyasu with mortar. Date Masamune on Mounted Teppo. Admittedly I do have the Kuragiri Kagehide, which is busted, but I still think that's the way to go even for F2P players.

I wanted to give my great respect to all who play here , resolve puzzles, bring back memories from the past, so far I go again to see what changed in XIX th Century, where Kings had still smth to tell. Ill live Shogun , Samurai, Ninjas and Zen Masters for a while to have them marinate bit more. History of Japan is great. Tanks again all, see You on the other battlefields, on the same side I hope.

I was just playing World Unification as the Akizuki Clan when I realized that there are two Shimazu Toyohisa in the Shimazu Clan. I don't know if that a mistake or he as a twin brother with the same name but when I first realized this, I thought I was tripping cuz I as like there is no way that ET would make such a mistake. Like they have the same skill too. Did anyone else realized it too?

Also when I was playing as Kuroda Clan, when I would join in support of Tokugawa Iyesu. I would get Nabeshima Naoshige to answer the call not Kuroda Nagamasa. I am pretty sure this is a bug. And just a question I have been wondering, why is there no challenge mode in World Unification?

Resurface of Chaos was also added with no challenge mode, then they added it in a later update. I don't really understand why it's difficult to include challenge mode immediately, but I assume it will be the same here.

I was playing as Kyogoku Clan and was attacking the Oda clan when the Mori clan took my capital. Is this a bug? And this happened at the 4th turn before Ishida Mitsunari took Fushimi Castle.

Neutral clans can sometimes take your city if they come across it at 0 HP and completely undefended. Though I have no idea how it happened in that case. The only thing I can think of is if Ishida somehow managed to blast your capital down in 3 turns (unlikely).

Not really much to take from that. Atleast we know when the next update is coming, and also that some purples are gonna get skins. I have no idea what they’re talking about regarding purple generals with skins having the same power as golds since a lot of the top tier purple generals ARE already around the same tier as the golds. I mean, Shigehide is the best foot teppo in the game!

It's amazing how little can be said with so many words Anyways, making some of the never used purples (Chiyo, Sakon, Dousetsu, etc) viable could become interesting.

Is it just me or is Narita Kai War Dance useless? I just don't understand why I need to activate it except for the morale increase. Does it make enemy npc target her like taunt or does it just increase morale when being attack? Cuz if it's just that I don't really need to activate the skill.
