Hey, he's a rookie and doing at least as well as a certain previous "Tokugawa" did - maybe better. I'll have to go back to the old turnfiles and review the evidence.

Plus, he doesn't let his Mrs. visit every boozy backwater sea shack in Nippon giving "comfort" to the eager patrons like someone did...
Oh, he is doing much better than I did the first time, but in the end the end result will be the same.

Please don't talk about Asakura's wife in public...

With every drunk salt
What sailed the sea

Bit disappointed by this Mrs T's chasteness ... 🙁

When I sober up I'm going to call you out for referring to me as a drunk salt! 😀

(Besides, it wasn't for free - the doctors' bills afterwards almost crippled the Ito treasury! 😉)

I did it in two different games - all went as hoped.

Only puzzling thing was a comment in my messages; 'no Garrison was disbanded, as the fleet's location was now controlled by another realm, and the fleet had nowhere to flee to'

Don't appear to have lost any ships and I didn't build any in the province I gifted ...
The Garrison was disbanded and recreated for the new owner. I don't know why it's talking about fleets though.

Lord Asakura, where is thou fleet?

Could it be that it's resting on the bottom of the (Kashima) sea where the sharks meet?



Now cut the crap, this is what you get when you attack the northern alliance!!!!!!!!

Indeed ANOTHER successful turn - funny how last turn he mentioned my little fleet being sunk yet neglected to mention that his much larger fleet in the North was also completely destroyed.

Now we come for your homelands Asakura.....

Nice break-through you've got going there in the middle. Asakura's campaign against the Matsunaga has had to be called off. The monk, I should imagine, is belabouring himself with his own zen stick. (Nice work with the assassins, Satake). Tokogawa has had it. In short, Japan will be united, but not from the centre.

Hosokawa's glorious victory in Tokushima province spells the inevitable doom of the South. Quit plotting against the north--you've had things too easy, you're unfit!

Greetings,

How has Shikoku managed to not fall yet?!? this is very well done.

A marvellous move with the assassins has resulted in a breakthrough in the centre. Now the Asakura are ripe!

Tokugawa has blustered enough, Asakura has obviously fooled someone down south into letting him stay alive.

It appears the monks are victims of their choice in vassals.

The North comes for the central alliance; and will smash it to pieces.

I don't think in the depths of their black hearts they really want to kill me. I expect to live forever.

I did try to warn Tokogawa about his choice in friends, but silver tongues will sway...I doubt he'll last another round.

The Ikko Ikki have declared war against me! General Sadakuni Sadake shakes his fist at me from over the water. What has got him so worked up, I wonder?

Hatano possesses Amako's former holdings. No doubt she will come to Asakura's aid and join in his doom. This is all as it should be.

The prospect of a major battle between North and South looms ever larger. I notice the discrepancy between your fleets is not so great anymore, although Shimazu is building assiduously at home. However, your alliance collectively has more clout in terms of gold. Shall there be whining about mega-alliances again?

I hope you're proud of yourself, Nanbu!

It took two of your warships to sink my valiant scout! Hah!

Next time I'll send along an old fish boat for fighter escort and you won't be able to handle it.

"Mrs Tokogawa doing the butterfly"

Why does Asakura rail at his furniture? "Prepare you death beds!"

It's not one of my spies...

I gather Lord Mori has left my destruction to you and Ito, since his forces on Shikoku are scanty. Somewhere there's an enormous army rumbling about!

There are sure to be a few surprises (though not so much to those that are fed information by traitors!!! so far it has been spot on the money)

There has been little contact from the South so the Northern alliance is left top clean up the rabble in the middle (and the Ikko Ikki) on its own.

Yes , the fleets are closer in size now - very soon their little fleet will look VERY little......
