If they deny my claim to the Shogunate, I will have to fight them. Otherwise there is no reason to attack them short of bloody murder.
The reason the fight was not equal was due to superior strategy on the side of my alliance...I have not failed to take risks on those occasions when I had the chance to engage with the enemy. Of course, when I sacri ...[text shortened]... incomprehensible, but that's none of my concern.

"Losers, and by that I do not mean people who fail to win, always will lash out when they see things not going their way. It is far easier to do this than to (1) re-assess your strategies to see if there was not a better way to do things, (2) practice, or (3) come to grips with the stark reality that you can't be the best at everything."
2) Fighting against overwhelming odds? Out of the three of us, I am the only one who would benefit from any practice.
3) Not so stark for me - I'm comfortable knowing my limitations - and I think you'll find no1 isn't annoyed so much at not being the best in this game, it's that with your mega-alliance, it removed any point in continuing on for us.
'shouganai' as the Japanese would say - or maybe, 'shigata ga nai' back in the Sengoku period.

I'd be interested to see where the game would have gone if you and the rest of the Scooby Gang hadn't banded together in a 'no attack pact' and played the game fairly. I bet you wouldn't be on your high horse preaching about your 'strategic superiority' for a start!
Quite a few people were trying this game for the first time, and many (such as myself) were quite enjoying the learning curve, investing our time and money in playing. It's a shame you had to spoil it for everyone with your gay little 'Lets be best friends so we can win' attitude. I hope you're happy with the AMAZING victory you're gunning for with your SUPERIOR STRATEGY.

It cant be one of the Kyushu nations as they actually did something.

Originally posted by eagles54I didn't say they were disrespectful. I said I didn't respect them. There's a difference. The first case is talking about them; the second, talking about me and how I feel about them.
Oh, really? That's not what you stated before.
"I don't respect the others who are tagging along hoping for scraps - Oda, Hojo and Asakura."

Was it using their AMAZING SUPERIOR STRATEGY tactics and gloating like a bunch of hypocritical, arrogant pricks?
