HISTORY DETAILS
The Uesugi troops were deployed in a “Winding Wheel” formation as their forces advanced. This tactical formation allowed their front line units to be replaced by fresh troops as the forces moved forward. While the Takeda units, deployed in a “Crane Wing” formation and could not bring units forward as quickly.
Yamamoto Kansuke, seeing his army being pushed back, realized that “Operation Woodpecker” had failed. Accepting responsibility, he charged forward into the Uesugi lines in true Samurai fashion. He fought bravely until overcome by wounds and finally withdrew to commit seppuku.

The stage is set, the battle lines are drawn, and you are in command. Can you change history?

Takeda survived a brutal attack and pulled back, pulled back, pulled back to gain time to organize. Things moved along slowly until the last two turns where Takeda actually had the lead. However, he lost a leader in a check. Uesugi tied it up, then failed to win. Takeda had the chance to win and failed with just one block to go. Then Uesugi was able to win. It was actually more balanced than I thought. Uesugi got lucky on that leader check, but Takeda got lucky when Uesugi could not pay honor and lost blocks. A very exciting bout for us. Uesugi wins 6-5 by the skin of his teeth.
