When you reach the right size, all survivors will declare war on you.

in total, I do not have vassals, but subjects and possibly a few (2) allies.
I checked - they actually declare war in about 18 provinces, but not all of them. The allies are still friendly (at least on a normal level) - although it's hard to find allies in this game :)
catch my breath all in all, it probably will prepare for the last campaign. I knock out everything that comes out of Hojo cities / I keep them on a drip. The development of cities / provinces completely loses sense at some stage.

I am going to play a little leisurely game.
I'll build it, I'll play, etc ..

do you know what i miss? - basic logic
There was a finite number of samurai, so to speak, and not mass production. I understand that this could be done with ashigaru - although I would limit it too. It's quite simple functionality.

the current system does not promote in-depth military development - only in breadth.
It is easy for me to invest time / money in better samurai. The basic unit is good enough, so it's a shame to waste resources on development.

I am a little bored with this kind of music .... I will also finish with them (I think I can manage ... the rest of the computer sounds similar to me. I throw them in rot / 49% cost around 400 and drive;)
I am so much better that in every province there is an army ...

ok. I won - I was a bit surprised by the info that I have to hold Kyoto for a year (4 rounds) but ... I made it. In fact, at the end - that is, from the moment of taking over the border province, it gets hot and everyone is attacking you (me), even allied families ... back.
I have not tried the law - but it is also not worth creating vassals, unless you are occupying an overseas province on the basis of a looted foray into the enemy's rear, and you do not want to play with managing it ...

with comments about the game
nice solved with "agents" - it really makes sense and well developed help definitely in the game.
economy - ships are weird (I think I mentioned) - too many in the game, and in many cases it's better to sink the fleet than to keep it. Such a situation - before the final game I controlled all shopping centers - when the province that triggers the "totalwar" system is captured, everyone declares war on me (immediately or after 1-4 turns) which deletes all trade routes. Ergo does not hesitate to keep the fleet at these points. - which resulted in the fact that at the time of the economic crisis (13,000 koku for the army) I simply sank 7/10 of the fleet. :)

having learned that the 17th (18?) province causes aggression, I tried to bring about a situation where the second clan first becomes unlucky 17 and only then I - but he was so reluctant that I got bored - did anyone experience such a situation?

ps. it's nice to launch a "Cichociemny" behind the enemy and cause revolts in the provinces with him. :)

I was playing the "normal" regular campaign.

I just took a look at TW: S2 Samurai Twilight
like the same game but it looks completely different - at least the main map. It's still Nipponia though
I will not say - I was interested in what I saw. After the game, I will wave a few rounds ....

I founded Res Publica Obama Care
and I don't know if it makes sense.
Shoguns on the left, imperial on the right, and my 12 provinces in the center.

As if anyone asked, there is a free download of Shogun 2 on Steam, probably until Friday.

a bit at the twilight stage - after my volt from the ranks of the shogun, the game made me a bit weary ...

It was the first time that an entire region was wreaked of havoc in the series. Pretty good horde mechanic. If you enjoy rolling over stupid Romans in a horde, or heroically defending the latter - it's worth it. Although Rome 2 is probably better when it comes to the typical atmosphere of antiquity.
