“I will not be modest. Humble, as much as you like, but not modest. Modesty is the virtue of the lukewarm.”

GOOD LORD !!😨😨😨!!
someone has waited their entire career to use this headline
I actually started on the losing team then betrayed to winning team...then back to losing clan and had the 3x fever. Dunno why it happened but I guess 3x fever is triggered when you satisfy the "betray to LOSING team 1x", since "betray to WINNING team" has a different tracker.
Downside: I lost a pearl.
Hi! I haven't joined yet but I assume that you just need to be in one of the winning clans to betray to a losing clan in order to get the fever? Would you mind posting the winning clans in the SLBP battle? Thank you.
Yes, that’s correct.
Winner: Orange, Green, Purple.
But usually if you just pick whichever one has Saizo in it, you can’t go wrong LOL
“Those poor boys”
“She deserves to be punished too.”
“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”
“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”
“She put herself in harm’s way”
“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”
“She ruined their lives.”
From Taiko by Eiji Yoshikawa
This part occured after Nobunaga's death. Hideyoshi and Shibata Katsuie (Nobu's senior retainer and an NPC in SLBP) had a fallout and after many schemes and faction disputes later, they fought in the Battle of Shizugatake in which Katsuie lost. When I read this part, I was awed.
As a player of both IkeSen and slbp, I have seen the loyalty and brotherly love of ikesen!Hide (the "mother hen"of Azuchi lol) and the clever mischief of SLBP!Hide, but this book opened my eyes to this cunning man whose mind is as dangerous as he is kind (and loyal) to his allies. He had no qualms using "borrowed knife" tactics against his enemies: a proof of how scary he is, if his mind is used as a weapon. So unless you are Ieyasu, you'll never see him coming....
I know he is depicted as a clever man in history (...like he coaxes the bird to sing proverb...) but this novel goes beyond my expectations. Not that I dislike him (In fact I respect this man for beating odds to unify Japan), but one can just imagine how the wars shape good men to do what we consider "evil" or "underhanded" means to achieve peace.
I spent millions of credits on these.
Brings back memories :)
