Hope you guys enjoy The Oda Experience! Let me know what you thought down in the comments, can't wait to read them all! :)
Also sorry about fucking up the background at the end, i finished this campaign in 4 days and edited the rest in just under 2, surprised this was the only hiccup!
Finally an upload i get to catch very early. Keep up the great work

@@user-eq1rn1lr9m Oh it's comin ;)
You have my respects bro
I own an arquebus for home defense, since that's what Oda Nobunaga intended. Four Azai traitors break into my house. "Nani no akuma?" As I grab my Kabuto helmet and Portuguese made Tanegashima. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my match-lock pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the Ikko-Ikki. I have to resort to the Hwacha mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with arrows, "Anata to hanarete!" the arrows shred the two men, the stray arrows set of the horses. Grab my Yari and charge the last terrified Azai. He bleeds out waiting on the Tokugawa to arrive, since Yari wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as Oda Nobunaga intended.
Finally, a copypasta

*inhales in pseudo-intellectual condescension*
This is a technically incorrect interpretation of the Ashigaru. While originating in the common peasant levies of earlier centuries, by the Sengoku Jidai ashigaru were essentially a non-noble part of the Bushi class. Effectively something between professional soldiers and mercenaries. There isn't complete consistency since all of the different domains did things differently to varying extents, especially in this era, but this is the broad stroke of it.
To the best of my knowledge, most of the Ashigaru Nobunaga used were hired or recruited instead of conscripted and this would be expanded upon during the Tokugawa Shogunate. This may lend to why they did better, although that was probably much more to do with how they were organized.
Tl;dr: They probably wouldn't have been disposable slaves or serfs, especially not the ones given guns and especially not in Oda employ.
@@The_Crimson_Fucker Sounds like the Ashigaru were the Japanese version of Landsknechts, especially if they had conscripted criminals and volunteers who made suicidal charges at the enemy in exchange for freedom, wealth or glory if they survived, like a Forlorn Hope.

By the end of that period, the distinction between Samurai and Ashigaru became really thin. Many Veteran Ashigaru units were at the same level in skills and gear as the supposely superior Samurai.

Oh this comment is glorious!
I am here with another fun fact about Sengoku era Japan!
This one is about a man named Yasuke. He was a loyal retainer of Oda Nobunaga and very well respected. He was also black and one of the few Nanban to be awarded the rank of samurai.
Sadly we don't know much about his life before arriving in Japan. He was a slave to an Italian missionary who was working his way through Asia when their ship was caught in a storm and sank. Yasuke washed up on shore and pretty quickly caught the attention of the locals. Keep in mind, the vast majority of Japanese people didn't know much about Westerners, let alone black people and the guy was over 6ft tall in a time when most Asians were short.
He was taken to meet Nobunaga who was very impressed by his stature and physical strength, as well as intrigued why they couldn't wash the 'ink' off of him. Yasuke entered his service as his sword bearer and accompanied Nobunaga on his capaigns. Sadly, during the ambush as Honnoji, Yasuke was eventually defeated and while accounts say Akechi Mitsuhide, the man who betrayed Nobunaga, opted to turn him over to the Christian missionaries in Kyoto, there's no record of what happened to him after that.
I should point out that a good portion of this story changes with the telling and I'm just giving the version I heard. This is a case of someone we definitely know existed but sadly not much about. I'm probably going to get a lot of "Well actually..." for this, but I think it's an interesting story regardless.
I want a movie about this guy so so bad!
Some say he was an Afro Samurai. Others the OG Black Dynamite but what do know. Is he was a badass.

I don't know why, but for me Shogun 2 has one of the saddest endings for the campaigns, as it takes you to the "modern" times. Thousands died leading the clan to victory, a memorial was built on the hill where they died. It is now a park, where people enjoy themselves not thinking about the pain, the effort and the lives lost so that they can live their lives
I'd argue the imperial victory in FOTS is worse simply because it's the historically accurate option and what Japan will do over the next 80 years or so.
Shogun or republican victory? Honestly could follow history or do something totally new

Early modern warfare consists of pikes and more pikes. If you don't have a pike in war your not a early civilised modern human being!
It is the true Oda way!
It blows my mind that Rome had neither the spears nor the cavalry and still conquered the Mediterranean. Truly a testament to their martial and administrative abilities. Spears make war easy mode
@@partydean17
Well, they used spearmean as their first and last lines for centuries. Hastatus means spearman, the triarii were also spearmen. The princepii might have used spears too. Then, once they realized that Italy's terrain wasn't ideal for phalanx warfare, the romans used swords AS SPEARS. The gladius was mainly for stabbing, they were trained to stab the enemy up close while behind the shield.
The thing about the maniples and later cohorts was having tactical flexibility, so they could exploit terrain and gaps in the enemy lines, which hoplites couldn't do it and relied on cavalry support instead. The use of swords allowed for closer combat as well, including storming cities and forts. The combo of scutum and gladius could be, in a general way, related to the old hoplon and spear model.
The romans often let the enemy charge into their line, getting showered with pillum and breaking formation in the proccess. Then it was a matter of "gladius goes poke poke on your gut". So they used spears for a while, then used swords while keeping the shield.
@@partydean17
One more thing, more than once Caesar made his soldiers use their javelins as spears, so we know it could be done. It means that the romans had training in sword and spear warfare for at least part of their extensive history of conquest. Not even going to mention the differences between the early and late roman eras, their swords nearly became sabers in the end as they kept getting longer.
@@partydean17 because their units specialized in mobility and ability to adjust to changing battlefield conditions.
Man, really good work. Those panning shots when front lines of two armies are about to collide, really felt cinematic. And of course, great selection of music.

Oda Ashigaru behind the archers: Do the Oda shuffle
Heh heh
This game will always have the best animations and the best feel of any total war game
Just that feeling when a cannon gets off that amazing hit litterally barreling the cannonballs through the enemy line
i have already seen this video like 18 times and i cant get enough
I LOVE IT
I love your channel!, continue forever like this my friend!
PRAISE BE TO PEASANTRY!
*YARI WALL INTENSIFIES!*
The other clans were lucky. If the war had dragged out any longer, the Oda would have unveiled their secret weapon: the Longer Yari Ashigaru. You don't need guns when you can poke someone to death from the other side of the battlefield.
I want a mod now where that is possible aha :D
Ahhh...i really love your channel! Its early,fast,funny,and enjoying! Keep up the good work!
Glad you enjoy it! Thanks for the kind words :)
Man you deserve more visibility, this is pure gold

Just imagine being a Legendary Samurai who has proved himself in countless battles you can’t wait to serve the Daimyo to your best ability but you get opted out because the Daimyo is a cat person.
The blood of commoners we will conquer all of Chin- I mean Japan.
Heh heh ;)

*BEAUTIFUL CHOIR MUSIC INTENSIFIES*
The Oda Strategy: if at first you don't win, then just throw *more peasants* at them.
They are basically conscripts for the Astra Militarum :D
Slightly trained peasants with good spears.
that's literally the opposite of his strategy IRL he had one of the few armies entirely comprised of professional in Japan something that gave him a huge edge over the peasant armies of some of his rivals
I like how your games always end up in apocalyptic mass-scale obliteration of whole cities GoT season 8 style
Except there's no cringy bad writing so it's actually good
Oh god i thought i forgot about that horrific season. SEASON 8 NEVER HAPPENED OK! OT NEVER HAPPEND!!! *cries in corner*
Yet again I see a display of wonderful ragdolls, magic dissappearing units and some timely DoW quotes, this right here is quality entertainment, great work my man
Glad you enjoyed it dude! :)
1:35 That's the most subtle and best way to say, "I don't care, I have a pet Tiger and all your base belong to us".
"ashigaru are bedrock of Oda might"
*Wins legendary only with ashigaru*
Just how I want it ended.
ayeeeeeeee
I would like to add side notes for this, Owari people in particular was not a warlike folk, they were weak compared to people in places like Kai, Satsuma and Echigo, and so Nobunaga chose to utilise his economical advantage, that this having one of the most fertile plains in Japan, and the size of army it can support. Don't mistake me, Oda was not the only clan that focus on ashigaru, in fact everyone does that, especially Chosokabe, but it was Nobunaga that utilise the numerical advantage.
So what ya saying is.... the Oda was just one great big WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHHHH??
