A strategy I favor is building a mixed gunner / skirmrisher force (I prefer nanbu and hand gunners) with a few companions and lved infantry to accompany myself (yari, tetsuo, yumi, medium armor, no mount. the skimrishers and gunners usually sort themselves into a perfect line with gunners kneeling in front and archers standing behind, and I lead the infantry to intecept cavalry or samurai as they charge, to make sure they do charge, ill sometimes take my mounted companions horse to kill the general, making a point to at least distract any other cavalry while im out there and returning to my infantry as soon as the general is dead. With my force smaller/at lower lvs it works great agaisnt unarmored mobs like looters or the ezo warriors in the north (great farming for exp and moral) and once the skimrisers and vets or elites I challenged lords in castles, villages and the open field. open field is definately the hairiest but Ive been running this since i was level one and im up to 21 now, force has grown to 78 men and i have 3 forts and a village as a nanbu lord. Been beating the hell outa the mogami and date clans >)
