STW2 AAR - Mori Summer 1556

A large Ouchi army is on its way to conquer Hyuga. Metsuke report that Hyuga Castle is lightly defended and is certain to fall to the Ouchi. This forces Mori Takamoto's hand. The Tiger of Kyushu mobilizes a small force of veteran samurai and force marches them past the Ouchi army. The army stops just short of Hyuga Castle. Takamoto, fearing that the Ouchi will beat him to Hyuga Castle in the next season, leaves his army behind, races ahead to the castle and begins the siege with only his bodyguards, the rest of his army following close behind.

The dawn brings danger to Hyuga Castle
After a brief battle, Hyuga Castle falls to the Mori.


The Ouchi cannot fail to feel cheated by this. But Takamoto expects that diplomacy will soon smooth things over.
