Specializations
The Ryuzoji Clan focuses on archers and infantry. They have access to hatamoto archers, elite skirmishers, and hatamoto guards.

Ryuzoji Hatamoto Guards are outfitted with a broad selection of mêlée weapons, including the ubiquitous Katana, the Nagamaki and, otherwise rarely seen, Nodachi, which gives them an edge over their opponents (pun not intended). They use the Soshu blades which confer no bonuses to damage or speed, but have lower requirements.

Trade
Ryuzoji territory is more-or-less unremarkable for trading, as there aren't many interesting trading opportunities. Yet, a player can still net a nice profit from trading - if they get the right things (hint: spice).

General Starting tips and strategy
The Ryuzoji Clan borders the Shimazu Clan to the south and the Otomo Clan to the east. Because of its small size but numerous lords (in relative terms), the Ryuzoji are difficult to conquer. Usually, the hinterland of Nagasaki is pirate-free as Ryuzoji lords will hunt them down. However, the islands south of Nagasaki are often full of woku pirates, and Great Lord Ryuzoji will often issue the player missions to destroy pirate lairs.
