Battle of Kamo, 1574


"The advanced guard has engaged Shogunate light cavalry near a village in Kamo," an adjutant reported to General Morikane, barely able to contain his excitement.

"Light cavalry? In that case the main army will not be far behind. The Shogun has come out to fight. Orders to all standards: Battle formations! Prepare to advance!" ordered Morikane.

Thus begins the first battle between the forces of the Ashikaga Shogunate and the Mori on the plains of Kamo.
