Total War: Shogun 2 Gameplay Information:
In the darkest age of Japan, endless war leaves a country divided. It is the middle of the 16th Century in Feudal Japan. The country, once ruled by a unified government, is now split into many warring clans. Ten legendary warlords strive for supremacy as conspiracies and conflicts wither the empire. Only one will rise above all to win the heart of a nation as the new shogun...The others will die by his sword.
Take on the role of one Daimyo, the clan leader, and use military engagements, economics and diplomacy to achieve the ultimate goal: re-unite Japan under his supreme command and become the new Shogun - the undisputed ruler of a pacified nation.

At 3:23 I say Ikko Ikki Loan Sword Ashigaru are stronger than Katana Samurai 1v1. That was a typo in the script and I was supposed to say Yari Samurai as that's what I showed on screen and mentioned earlier. Although 2 of them are still only 2/3 of the price and together they will mess up a Katana Samurai real good, so not quite 1v1, but close enough.

Although common sense to Shogun 2 TW players, it should also be mentioned to newer players that the ashigaru units are also faster to recruit and replenish, which further cements their place in the top 5. But now that Loan Sword Ashigaru are in the top 5 (where they definitely belong) we really need to talk more about Mori Wako Raiders. Criminally underappreciated unit, these are essentially tier 2 versions of Loan Swords, with higher infrastructure requirements (but not tech, you only need bushido to unlock sword dojo tech-wise) and the addition of Kisho Training. They are almost equivalent to Katana Samurai having a bit less armor and charge in exchange for higher melee defense (in straight melee the +3 melee defense actually outclasses the -2 armor), but are far cheaper to recruit and maintain and have kisho training to boot. They aren't gimped by being an undersized unit either, they're a full samurai sized unit with equal morale and melee attack. Now I know the military port requirement is frustrating given that the nearest blacksmith to the Mori lacks a port slot. In response, so what? They are so much cheaper than katana samurai that there really is no excuse not to recruit them direct from Aki (or a neighboring territory with naval bonuses if you prefer to build your ports there). Slap down an armory encampment upgrade (or a proving ground if you want to go for a balls to the wall kisho deployed melee rush strat, they may be glass cannon but with + charge they are superior to unupgraded katana sam) and you have the dominant mid-tier unit of the game. Eventually a Mori player will probably take Satsuma, so if you really want proper upgrades you can always get them there. For blacksmith upgrades Mori Wako raiders count as ashigaru units, so you will need to upgrade the smiths at least once to benefit. On top of all this, kisho training itself is underappreciated. There are a lot of nasty tricks you can do with an army that can mass vanguard deploy. If you see an enemy full stack sitting just outside a castle you can attack the castle directly, then deploy your forces around the castle cutting off their stack as they desperately try to run through their own moat and your lines to get back inside the castle. Kisho trained units are also better at hiding, both in the open and in forests where units have to get much closer to reveal them compared to regular units. Anyhow I'd still put them outside top 5 since early game is still more important than mid game, but this unit really needs to get talked about more. It's honestly a shame that Hattori doesn't get one of these, they are so much better than any of Hattori's kisho trained units especially due to the cost.

I didn't use Yari Ashigaru at all during my first few Shogun 2 campaigns because the tutorial did a horrible job explaining Yari Wall. The tutorial said that Yari Wall was only useful for head on cavalry charges, which I took to meant that that was the only time it should be used.

Yari Ashigaru is the most effective general purpose unit especially the Oda long Yari version as its Yari wall is near impenetrable especially if you combine multiple units in an attack. I’m pretty sure I used only Yari Ashigaru when playing Oda and demolished quite a number of factions including the takeda and Tokugawa factions.

I agree with the list, however you could make the list to fit more different units. For unit being ranked higher because it's straight upgrade from one, you could make it like #2 and #2+. For example, if light cav is ranked as #2, yari cav being straight upgrade can be ranked as #2+ and would leave an extra place for a much different units. That's just my 2 cents, great video nonetheless!

@user-yy3gm2ub2i
@user-yy3gm2ub2i 4 месяца назад
Depends a little on context. Historically, if you don't have cavalry or ranged superiority (especially if your pikemen don't have full plate armor like most wouldn't) then a phalanx or pike wall is inflexible, stiff, and easier to flank and skirmish. Alexanders' army famously relied upon the companion cavalry to acheive local superiority in weak spots while the phalanx held the enemy in place. The Roman's took advantage of this especially when fighting phalanxes in a part of the world where cavalry was relatively speaking less prevalent on the battlefield by using more mobile units that all used short throwable spears, large shields and short swords. essentially their tactics were to surround a flank of the enemy's tightly packed line, disrupt the formation with throwing spears, press into close quarters (a brutal business that obviously cost lives) and there use the superior close quarters mobility of their short swords to their advantage to make a hole in the formation. This approach took exceptionally well disciplined and brave soldiers to be sure. Typically it was easier to get people to fight a phalanx from a phalanx but then if the enemy has more men with longer pikes that's not really going to work out well for you. You need some local superiority using some other tactic.

In a certain way they are, the transition for mid to late game is basically change your Yari Ashigaru into Naginata Samurai, but the former is considered the best cost efficient unit in the game, so most people keep them until de end of the campaign, the latter is toughter generalist unit but both hold the line very well.

I'd probably go full armour for Long Yaris, because they're a pretty stationary unit, and go for a mix of melee attack and armour for Loan Swords because they need some protection from arrows, but mostly you just want them to deal more damage in melee which is what they're good at.

@FShani
@FShani 2 года назад
Long yari have a unit cap in campaign mode. You can only have ... I want to say 8 of them in total. So generally speaking you'll want to put 2 in each major stack and spread them out on the battle field to where they're needed most. Additionally stacking pikes isn't as beneficial as it seems. Since very few units can get past the first set of pikes the second pike unit will see little action. But stacking pikes with spears the pikes will get in on the action more and will be protected from melee attacks and some missile fire as the spears absorb most damage. *edit* quick glance at the wiki page seems to show they don't have a unit cap anymore. I'm not sure if that's just in multiplayer/custom battles (where they never were capped) or if they changed it at some point. Either way the second point is still valid.

Now I am curious. Do you think Loan Sword Ashigaru are better than Yari Ashigaru? Your tierlist suggests the opposite is true, since you say you don't take into acknowledgement clan exclusivity when rating these units. Does that mean you don't really use Loan Sword Ashigaru, as they are a worse unit? Or do you use them only specifically when you need anti-missile troops, and you don't have anything else that is better than Yari Ashigaru at filling that role?

If the list is to cover all the dlc then it’s a travesty that revolver Calvary isn’t on here. Or do you consider fall of the samurai to be a standalone?

Yeah, FotS is it’s own game altogether as you don’t compare those units except in multiplayer, which isn’t the purpose of these lists. I did make top 5 FotS units lists as well, and revolver cav are high up on those.

Yes I think you were actually the RU-vidr who revealed the true power of the Revolver cav to me. I took one look at the stats like you said and thought they were trash without realizing their bad reload didn't matter due to the 6 continuous volleys. Now they're easily my most used FotS unit.@@MrSmartDonkeyLP

@danielpolak5969 Год назад
I think you have wrong. Yes, Yari ashigaru is a yarimazing unit, BUT if the enemy has more bow units, , you can put your yariwall anywhere you want, you will lose the battle. In my experieces bow ashigaru, katana samurai and yari cav are the best. In siegebattles yari ashigaru is definetly unuseful. If you attack they are too weak, if you defend they are perfect target for a bow unit, mainly in yariwall.
@Genrikh_Yagoda
@Genrikh_Yagoda 2 года назад
I do not doubt that Yari Ashigaru aren't bad, but I use them almost exclusively in the early game, but leave them for samurai very quick, once my economy is strong. I'd take Katana Samurai over them, even against cavalry, as for some reason, Katana Samurai beat every cavalry, except for Yari Cav and Takeda Fire Cavalry in my campaigns.
@MrSmartDonkeyLP
@MrSmartDonkeyLP 2 года назад
I do too, and I'm sure most people do, because I don't want to use the same unit the entire campaign and most Samurai units are very strong in their own right, but that doesn't take away from the fact that Yari Ashigaru are absolutely the most cost-effective unit in the game, far outshining anything else, including Katana Samurai. Again though, once you have basically infinite money you might as well just have 5-6 late-game stacks running around than 8-9 Ashigaru armies, especially if you run out of generals, so I also usually switch to better units when money is no longer an issue.
@Genrikh_Yagoda
@Genrikh_Yagoda 2 года назад
@@MrSmartDonkeyLP It's impressive to see you destroying whole armies with Yari Wall, when I can barely defend against a horde of yari samurai with Rapid Advance. Also, I've noticed that although Katana Samurai beat most cav in my campaigns, Naginata Samurai get shredded by arrow fire, even tho they have such high armour. I think it's an error of some sorts, but it kinda kills the idea of me recruiting them. Even Yari Ashigaru in Yari Wall bloodied them to almost routing. You know why?
@shingeovanny508
@shingeovanny508 Год назад
@@Genrikh_Yagoda everyone gets shredded by arrows if you think is a good idea to tank arrows all day, especially in Legendary. Just try upgraded Naginata Samurai with 14 armor in a loose formation (making this unit to lose fewer men for each volley) while focused the enemy archers with your own archers (bow monks are the best for this, if you don't believe me check the NagSam - BowMonk combo). Obviously, Katana Samurai are better against infantry than Naginata Samurai, but both suffer against Yari Ashigaru in Yari Wall (that ability makes Yari Ashigaru has the defensive power of a Naginata Samurai basically), and in the opposite way, Naginata Samurai finish off cavalry very quickly (almost as fast than a yari infantry). According to my personal experience, if you play defensive and static, Naginata Samurai is the best choice for mainline; for an agressive style, Katana Samurai are the best but you need protect your flanks with Naginata Samurai for sure; Yari Ashigaru are excellent for early game, and valid choice even for mid to late due to low price and upkeep. I'm one of those who prefers to be a defensive style player and the AI is very predictable in most situations, but the Bow Samurai doomstack is very deadly in Legendary, so Naginata Samurai becomes a necessity for mid to late game.
