From the Recorded Words of Asakura Soteki:
A general of great merit should be said to be a man who has met with at least one great defeat.
The written pages of history sometimes hold surprises, and outcomes are never quite as preordained as they seem. The lessons of Spring 1574 bring that to mind, as the combined might of the Asakura, Oda and Hojo bring the Takeda advance to an abrupt stop. Fortunes are reversed in Hida, as the Takeda troops are forced to disband after confronted with the Oda troops in Mino. Meanwhile, in the south, the Shimazu face an ever-tightening noose of Mori-making...
No retreats were required from the Spring moves other than the Takeda disband. So with that, we'll set the Fall 1574 deadline for Wednesday, November 14th (11:59 PM GMT). As always, please let me know if you spot any mistakes or errors.
Regards,
Trout of the Long Rice
