Thread: The Sekigahara Campaign - Historical Research Center

    Ieysu was probably too fat to walk but he would not take the risk to ride into battle. It's also a matter of power and rank. "look how I seat peacefully while you fight !"
    Sekigahara saw a whole day of fighting, do you imagine spending 10 hours on a hard wood saddle ?

    I was reading about Ieyasu's weight. Dear god, I feel sorry for the horse. Moreso since they were more like ponies in Japan.

    The more I see this armor, the more I want Date Masamune to wear it in the game.

    Since you want to make a modular mod, do you think we could have an alternative daimyo pack after the release of the mod ?

    This mod is going to be better than Fall of the Samurai if you keep up that way !

    Would be so cool to use these guys (pic) as Date-clan Hatamoto, Especially with those crazy helmets. Masamune had such a great sense of style, didn't he?

    Thanks for your constant flow of pictures Yoshisuke. Oh and the post works fine for me. I'm not sure what the problem is!

    Not showing up for me either. Where are you hosting the file?

    That last suji-bachi kabuto is beautiful. Does your source mention the particular owner in the Ikeda family?

    Not the particular owner, I'm afraid.
    It only says :
    "Crest of the Ikeda family, daimyo of Tottori in Inaba.
    Koshozan-shaped helmet in russet iron made of thirty-two plates. The peak as well as the plates of the bowl are damascened in silver with foliage motif.
    Signed "Owari no kuni no ju Shigemasa".
    17th century."

    Completly forgot I had these.
    Ikeda kabuto (no idea of the specific owner) interesting because it gives a good idea of what a katana can do in battle.
