I've had this game since the day it came out. I even pre-ordered it from gamestop so I had the ninja clan before it was an buy able DLC.
However, no matter the faction, I can never seem to reach the end of the game. The farest I've ever gotten was 1578 with the Chosokabe clan. Then for some reason, my regions starting to revolt, I was being invaded and my ports were simultaneously blockaded. Other than that, I never get pass 1560. I always lose sometime before that year. Hell, I even lose in two turns once.
So that has made me curious, what's the farthest you gone? Have you beaten it?
