Turn 1) I’ll start by building castles in Nagato and Bungo just to keep anyone from interfering with my Kyushu campaign. Here’s a summarized turn by turn break down for my opening for anyone that’s interested in the nitty gritty. Those high twin peaks on the right side of the map can a lot of fun to defend! Once I’m in this defensible position I usually like to take my foot off the pedal a little bit just to build up my economy, my military infrastructure and of course my armies! This way I can go into the end game with a decent income along with some decent armies with decent troops. Particularly in Echizen which is a province I really enjoy defending. Those three provinces are very defensible. My midgame goals are to defeat Mori and then push to the Owari – Mino- Echizen line in central Japan. To this end my opening goals are to consolidate power in Kyushu and then push on and take Tosa. The northern clans have rich territories and if the Shimazu player doesn’t have a solid hold in central Japan by the mid game it’s going to be an uphill battle to close out the campaign. It’s going to be important to be aggressive, at least in the beginning. Their safe starting location coupled with their poor farming income create a firm yet gentle scenario for newbs to learn their first lessons in. I consider Shimazu to be the best clan to start out with for a beginner. It hope you will find it helpful or at least interesting! Here’s my guide for the Shimazu clan! It includes a detailed turn by turn description for an optimal opening strategy as well as some more generalized thoughts regarding the mid and endgame.
