From the Message of Master Gokurakuji

When one is serving officially or in the master's court, he should not think of a hundred or a thousand people, but should consider only the importance of the master.

The Spring of 1572 comes to the Isles of the Rising Sun and see the Mori make a play for the Chosokabe heartland, the Takeda and the Hojo bump heads in Shimotsuke and the Uesugi cling to one last thread of hope in Mutsu.

No retreats are required after the turn, although the Ronin army in Mino is dislodged and disbanded. We'll quickly move into Fall 1572 orders and set the deadline for Thursday, October 18th (11:59 PM GMT). As always, please let me know if you spot any errors in the adjudication.

Cheers all,

Trout
