Specializations
The Asakura Clan has access to both Hatamoto Gunners and Hatamoto Archers, whilst also being able to train Elite Spearmen from villages. As such, one should focus less on cavalry (obtaining Hatamoto cavalry from neighbouring clans if necessary), whilst building up an elite ranged force, protecting this force from cavalry with a powerful spear wall.
