Otomo Sorin was the lord of Funai castle in Bungo province, a wealthy
port on the eastern coast of Kyushu.  Sorin was a powerful daimyo in

his own right, but was ultimately eclipsed by the powerful Shimazu and
Mori clans that surrrounded his position.  He is known to history as
one of the few daimyo that formally converted to Christianity, and for
requesting Toyotomi Hideyoshi's assistance against the Shimazu, an act

that ultimately resulted in Hideyoshi's dominance of all of Kyushu.


***TEAHOUSE COMMENTARY:  The Chosokabe trade their position in Pacific
Ocean for Kumano Sea, while on land their trust is rewarded both by

Mori and Asakura.  Hojo advances his naval lines to Pacific Ocean, but
stalls on the front against Oda.  Asakura suffers a fierce Uesugi
invasion of Kaga and Echizen, though only one of those attacks
succeeds.  And Satomi Yoshihiro quietly remains in far-flung Hitachi,

pondering the afterlife...



***HAIKU!!!

Desperado dream
Ceaseless wind turns tsunami
Roosters crow nike


***PLAYERS:


Shimazu Yoshihisa - Isaac Zinner (*eliminated 1573*)

Mori Motonari - Jim Atkins

***RETREATS DUE:

Chosokabe F Pacific Ocean can retreat to South Pacific Ocean or OTB.
As I have conditional retreats already from Jean-Luc (thanks, very
helpful!), we will retreat this fleet to South Pacific Ocean per his

instructions.


***NEXT DEADLINE:

Fall 1574 will provisionally be due Tuesday, 22 June 2010 at 1700 EST.
 I say provisionally because I go on vacation on 19 June.  If I can
adjudicate, I will - though I will likely need someone else to enter

the orders in RP and produce the map, which I will then certify as
official.  Any volunteers?
