I think I may take an extra turn this time around since I only played nine last time. Pre-turn, everything looks good.
Apr., 1517 AD (159) - Mogami were declared on pre turn. This turn, I see they have moved a spearman into the town. This could be tough. Daimyo Oda bed_head7 defeats an enemy bushi and picks up a slave.
Jul., 1517 AD (160) - The army takes care of the spearman, bed_head7 kills an ashigaru and a bushi kill the final ashigaru and take the first Mogami town. With all the fighting we will be doing, I think I may just fill the one we have with horseman. They are faster with only one lower attack than the ronin. Of course, it will be our nationality, but we haven't been trying to hide that we are taking over the world, so I am not too concerned. Oh, Ronin came in, Bujutsu in 7 at -3 gpt.
Hmm. Missed a couple of turns. Just positioning stuff.
Apr., 1518 AD (163) - I am really glad I built that horse army. It kills three spearman single handedly in the capital of Mogami, and two of three vet horses in the army promote to grandmaster inside of the army. Uh oh. After getting rid of the five spears and bushi in Ogachi, a Daimyo-4 is revealed. Got really lucky that a crossbow bombard hit, as well as one catapult, so it is down to me (or my daimyo at least). After losing three hp, Daimyo Oda bed_head7 wins! Glad I attacked when I did, because the RNG then turns on us. Three bushi and a horseman all die to a single spearman unfortified in grassland with no river.
Jan., 1519 AD (166) - War is declared on Otomo, simply because they have settler pairs wandering around getting in the way. Daimyo Oda bed_head7 takes out an Otomo ashigaru
Apr., 1519 AD (167) - I seem to have made a rather sizable misjudgement in terms of research path. First of all, we got beaten to Bujutsu. This turn, we got beaten to Sun Tzu's. Some Saito city built it. Which leaves us with nothing at all, since I didn't research literature. I just saw no point. But I honestly see no reason for the Great Library except for the Golden Age. In more positive news, bed_head7 beats another Daimyo-4 Mogami, leaving three Daimyo Mogamis and three Mogami cities. Oh, we got Bujutsu this turn and start on Kenjutsu for the Daimyo Upgrade. Hopefully Saito is going for something else.
Jul., 1519 AD (168) - I've decided that I will take an extra this time around to make up for nine last time. This is because bed_head7 kills an ashigaru in one Mogami town to reveal a Daimyo-1. Of course, bed_head7 only has two hp. So we'll use tech calc and if we can bombard so that my odds are relatively good, I'll go for my third Daimyo kill. Hmm. Some troop movement shows that the Otomo are sending six bushi our direction. Have fun, scoutsout. Oops. After writing that, I realize I mixed up the daimyos somewhere along the way. scoutsout is protecting me instead of Kiech. Maybe scoutsout can take 11 to make up for my error, since we are still going to be off by one turn from ten turn sets.
Oct., 1519 AD (169) - Daimyo Oda bed_head7 kills his final Daimyo for the night. scoutsout is sort of positioned. Along with our two armies.
Final notes: We could use a few settlers to fill in some holes. There are a couple being built. We might want to consider building some embassies in some of Saito's rivals and making alliances against Saito, because they are going pretty strong.
bed_head7 final unit kill: three daimyos, four regular units (one bushi, three ashigaru)

Don't worry about the research path misjudgement, I really do not think you could have researched literature in time. On the other hand, I really wanted the GA and with that many civs, TGLib would have permitted us to shut down research and rush a LOT of things. Let me cry a little bit more.
