Most merchants will be on guard against potential attacks, so the wako resort to such stratagems. Against large ships, however, they lack the firepower for battle, and the manoeuvrability to escape!<br /> <br /> Historically, the wako plagued the Koreans and Chinese between the 13th and 16th century. There would be periods of inactivity, usually after a devastating attack on the pirates’ base had been a salutary lesson, but the wako would always be back. There was simply too much wealth to be stolen! In 1587, Toyotomi Hideyoshi decreed that peasants were not allowed to carry weapons, and in turn the wako found it harder to obtain arms.

It is, quite rightly, beneath them, even though merchants often end up rather wealthy! Trade ships are seen as a necessary evil, importing valuable weapons from overseas such as cannon and firelocks. Trade ships are unarmed vessels and should run away at the first sign of trouble: this wise tactic is their only defence! They are constantly threatened by enemy clans blockading supply lines, and by the wako pirates who infest the seas around Japan!<br /> <br /> Historically, trade between Korea and Japan was usually hampered by piracy. The Japanese wako pirates would routinely raid Korean and Chinese coasts, while the Japanese authorities seemed powerless to stop them. China responded by declaring war on the pirates, ambushing them and burning their ships. The Chinese also attacked known pirate bases and beheaded those they captured. When Toyotomi Hideyoshi came into power he banned the owning of arms by all the peasantry, which greatly reduced the power of the wako. However, the same pirates who had just been suppressed were then recruited for their naval expertise: Hideyoshi needed them for his ill-fated invasion of Korea in 1592.<br /> <br /> ==Strengths &amp; Weaknesses==<br /> *Weak in combat but provide bountiful profit for a clan.<br /> <br /> ==Comprehensive Unit Stats==<br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> ! <br /> !

It is set in the 18th century and includes features such as the Industrial Revolution, America's struggle for independence and the colonization of India. For the first time in a Total War game, players have the ability to play real-time 3D naval battles. Another feature that had been developed in the game was the decentralisation of provinces, adding greater realism in that many features, from production to technological advancement, would now occur outside of the capital of the province. It was the first in the series to use Valve Corporation's Steamworks DRM and achievements system, thereby requiring Steam to be played. It was the first to use Total War Engine 3 which included the Warscape Engine. <br /> <br /> The [http://store.steampowered.com/app/10606/?snr=1_5_9__405 Warpath Campaign] was released as downloadable content in October 2009. The campaign focuses on the battles of the Europeans and Native Americans throughout most of North and Central America.

The sheer size of their weapon dramatically increases their range and their accuracy is the envy of many. Due to its size the daikyu takes longer to nock than other bows giving these warriors slower reload times, but the damage it causes on impact more than compensates. Like most archers Chosokabe daikyu samurai are weak in melee and vulnerable to attack from enemy cavalry.<br /> <br /> The bow has always played an important role in the myths and legends of warrior societies. In The Tale of the Heike the Emperor Konoe fell ill after being plagued night after night by terrible nightmares. His loyal samurai, Minamoto no Yorimasa, realised that a dark cloud had appeared above the palace shortly before the Emperor fell ill. Determined to get to the bottom of this phenomenon, he spent all night on the palace roof and in the early hours of the morning fired an arrow into the centre of the dark cloud. From the midst of the cloud fell the body of a nue, a legendary creature with the head of a monkey, the body of a tanuki, the legs of a tiger and a snake for a tail. A bringer of misfortune and illness, it was the nue that had caused the Emperor's illness, and with its death he was cured.<br /> <br /> ==Strengths &amp; Weaknesses==<br /> *Very long range.<br /> *Very accurate and greater damage.<br /> *Slow reload speed.<br /> *Vulnerable to cavalry.<br /> *Weak melee attack.<br /> <br /> ===Abilities===<br /> *Flaming Arrows - This unit can fire flaming arrows for a short period of time. Flaming arrows have a greater damage effect and can set fire to flammable objects. Flaming arrows don't function in wet weather.<br /> *Screens - A shield that can be erected during the deployment phase when you are defending.

Further, because the upper deck has no cover, they are exposed to missile attacks. However, this lack of fighting manpower and protection also makes the ship very light and fast. The matchlock troops can fire at an enemy crew or at the side of an enemy ship in an attempt to hole it. If a heavy enemy vessel gets too close and a boarding attack looks likely, a matchlock ship can use speed to move out of trouble and continue its harassing attacks.<br /> <br /> Historically, Japanese naval tactics used missile attacks to thin out enemy numbers before a boarding action. Once the enemy were reduced, an attack would be launched and a battle fought hand-to-hand just as if everyone was ashore. The arrival of firearms in the Sengoku Jidai did not change these tactics.

If allowed the first volley, the extra 30 archers can compensate for the Bow Ashigaru's lower reload and accuracy. So in terms of missile damage output, the Bow Ashigaru can be more cost-effective than the Bow Samurai. However, in the event of a charge attack by melee units, the Bow Ashigaru will break and fall faster than the Bow Samurai.<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:TWS2 Infantry]]<br /> [[Category:TWS2 Units]]</div>

<p>Arima: /* Second Opinion */</p> <hr /> <div>{{TWS2 Unit2|image=[[Image:Foot Samurai ROTS.png]]<br /> |Class=Bow Infantry<br /> |Recruitment Cost=700<br /> |Upkeep Cost=150<br /> |Requires='''Buildings''':&lt;li&gt;[[Bushi School (ROTS)|Bushi School]]&lt;/li&gt;<br /> |Melee Attack=14<br /> |Charge Bonus=6<br /> |Bonus vs Cavalry=0<br /> |Range=150<br /> |Accuracy=60<br /> |Reloading Skill=60<br /> |Ammunition=25<br /> |Melee Defence=6<br /> |Armour=6<br /> |Morale=8<br /> |Speed=4}}<br /> <br /> ==Description==<br /> '''Samurai infantry well able to fight in melee and with the bow, making them superb all-purpose warriors.'''<br /> <br /> To be a samurai was, originally, to be a mounted warrior with bow and spear; mastery of the sword and fighting on foot were later developments. However, once adopted, these new ways were treated with equal sincerity and dedication. Samurai infantry are master archers, capable of hitting targets at impressively long ranges, and also quite capable of defeating enemies in close combat. However, the numerically small size of the unit does make them vulnerable to being overwhelmed by numerous lesser enemies. A wise commander also makes sure they are carefully handled when cavalry threaten. <br /> <br /> War, the skills of war, and the spirits went hand in hand in Japan. According to the &quot;Azuma Kagami&quot;, a written account of the Gempei War, Minamoto Yoritomo's first action when summoned to war was to put on ceremonial robes, and bow towards the Iwashimizu Hachiman shrine. By doing this, the Minamoto Shogun placed the destiny of his family in the hands of Hachiman, the kami of war and the Minamoto's tutelary spirit. To make sure Hachiman continued to favour his clan, Yoritomo had a Shinto priest and a samurai &quot;deeply versed in Shinto ritual&quot; offer prayers on his behalf.<br /> <br /> ==Strengths &amp; Weaknesses==<br /> *Very good accuracy and reload rate.<br /> *Very good in melee.<br /> *Very good morale.<br /> *Vulnerable to cavalry and massed levy troops.<br /> <br /> ===Special Abilities===<br /> *Flaming Arrows - This unit can fire flaming arrows for a short period of time. Flaming arrows have a greater damage effect and can set fire to flammable objects. Flaming arrows don't function in wet weather.<br /> *Whistling Arrows - Whistling arrows have an unsettling effect on both enemy and friendly troops, reducing their morale and combat ability for a short period when they fly over them.<br /> <br /> ==Other Information==<br /> The Excellent Stats of Foot Samurai are badly offset by their high recruitment and upkeep costs and the fact that there are only 45 men per unit, meaning that they're simply too expensive to recruit until you've built up a strong economy to support them. And even then, they're far too valuable for anything else other than turning the tide of a battle or defending a castle against an enemy assault. The most recommended Improvement that they should be given is Exceptional Armour as they are simply too good with the bow and sword to need either Exceptional Accuracy or Exceptional Weaponry, respectively. Extra Armour is also very helpful in reducing the risk of damage from arrow fire and engaging in melee against, more often than not, overwhelming odds. And the last thing that anyone would want is to have to replace a decimated unit of Foot Samurai.<br /> <br /> ===Second Opinion===<br /> When playing as the Kamakura Minamoto, their Reduced Upkeep bonus for Samurai units will lower the cost of Foot Samurai to be only slightly more expensive than Bow Attendants. This provides them with the practical alternative of using Foot Samurai over Bow Attendants which allows them to dominate both Archery Duels and Melee Combat unlike Bow Attendants which are not as resilient and can easily be destroyed by melee units. Also, massing Foot Samurai with Exceptional Accuracy will allow you to swiftly start and end both field battles and siege assaults before both armies can even get into melee range.<br /> <br /> ==Comprehensive Unit Stats==<br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> ! <br /> !

However, once adopted, these new ways were treated with equal sincerity and dedication. Samurai infantry are master archers, capable of hitting targets at impressively long ranges, and also quite capable of defeating enemies in close combat. However, the numerically small size of the unit does make them vulnerable to being overwhelmed by numerous lesser enemies. A wise commander also makes sure they are carefully handled when cavalry threaten. <br /> <br /> War, the skills of war, and the spirits went hand in hand in Japan. According to the &quot;Azuma Kagami&quot;, a written account of the Gempei War, Minamoto Yoritomo's first action when summoned to war was to put on ceremonial robes, and bow towards the Iwashimizu Hachiman shrine. By doing this, the Minamoto Shogun placed the destiny of his family in the hands of Hachiman, the kami of war and the Minamoto's tutelary spirit. To make sure Hachiman continued to favour his clan, Yoritomo had a Shinto priest and a samurai &quot;deeply versed in Shinto ritual&quot; offer prayers on his behalf.<br /> <br /> ==Strengths &amp; Weaknesses==<br /> *Very good accuracy and reload rate.<br /> *Very good in melee.<br /> *Very good morale.<br /> *Vulnerable to cavalry and massed levy troops.<br /> <br /> ===Special Abilities===<br /> *Flaming Arrows - This unit can fire flaming arrows for a short period of time. Flaming arrows have a greater damage effect and can set fire to flammable objects. Flaming arrows don't function in wet weather.<br /> *Whistling Arrows - Whistling arrows have an unsettling effect on both enemy and friendly troops, reducing their morale and combat ability for a short period when they fly over them.<br /> <br /> ==Other Information==<br /> The Excellent Stats of Foot Samurai are badly offset by their high recruitment and upkeep costs and the fact that there are only 45 men per unit, meaning that they're simply too expensive to recruit until you've built up a strong economy to support them. And even then, they're far too valuable for anything else other than turning the tide of a battle or defending a castle against an enemy assault. The most recommended Improvement that they should be given is Exceptional Armour as they are simply too good with the bow and sword to need either Exceptional Accuracy or Exceptional Weaponry, respectively. Extra Armour is also very helpful in reducing the risk of damage from arrow fire and engaging in melee against, more often than not, overwhelming odds. And the last thing that anyone would want is to have to replace a decimated unit of Foot Samurai.<br /> <br /> ===Second Opinion===<br /> When playing as the Kamakura Minamoto, their Reduced Upkeep bonus for Samurai units will lower the cost of Foot Samurai to be only slightly more expensive than Bow Attendants. This provides them with the practical alternative of using Foot Samurai over Bow Attendants which allows them to dominate both Archery Duels and Melee Combat unlike Bow Attendants which are not as resilient and can easily be destroyed by melee units. Also, massing Foot Samurai with Exceptional Accuracy will allow you to swiftly start and end field battles and siege assaults before both armies can even get into melee range.<br /> <br /> ==Comprehensive Unit Stats==<br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> ! <br /> !

The vessel is vulnerable to fire and cannon attacks, but it can use its speed to take evasive action when boarding attacks are made against it.&lt;/p&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;p&gt;In 1590, Toyotomi Hideyoshi used tower bunes during his siege at Shimoda, a coastal fortress controlled by his rivals, the Hojo. Although it was unusual to lay siege to a castle from the sea, the attack used the same tactics as a land assault. The castle’s supplies were cut off, and Hideyoshi waited for starvation to force the Hojo to submit.

However, the numerically small size of the unit does make them vulnerable to being overwhelmed by numerous lesser enemies. A wise commander also makes sure they are carefully handled when cavalry threaten. <br /> <br /> War, the skills of war, and the spirits went hand in hand in Japan. According to the &quot;Azuma Kagami&quot;, a written account of the Gempei War, Minamoto Yoritomo's first action when summoned to war was to put on ceremonial robes, and bow towards the Iwashimizu Hachiman shrine. By doing this, the Minamoto Shogun placed the destiny of his family in the hands of Hachiman, the kami of war and the Minamoto's tutelary spirit.

Bow attendants have good morale and are trained well enough for close combat should the need arise. Like many bowmen, however, they are vulnerable if attacked by cavalry. <br /> <br /> Archery has a long history in Japanese warfare and every samurai was expected to master the art. The bow plays a key role in several Japanese myths. Tamamo no Mae, the beautiful courtesan who stole the heart of the Emperor Konoe, was killed by an arrow fired by Miura no Suke, a mighty warrior. Although Tamamo no Mae was a most beautiful and intelligent woman, she was a kitsune, a nine-tailed fox, working for an evil rival to the Emperor. When her secret was revealed she fled, and Miura no Suke gave chase. Aware that her doom was close, Tamamo no Mae appeared to Miura no Suke in a dream and begged for her life. He refused and fired the fatal arrow the very next day. Tamamo no Mae's fox body turned into the Sessho Seki, the Killing Stone, which legend says kills any who come into contact with it. The stone was haunted by the fox spirit who chose to take the name Hoji, until she was convinced to leave, or exorcised, by Genno, a Buddhist monk.<br /> <br /> ==Strengths &amp; Weaknesses==<br /> *Average accuracy and reload rate.<br /> *Good morale.<br /> *Weak in melee.<br /> *Vulnerable to cavalry.<br /> *Weak against samurai infantry.<br /> <br /> ===Special Abilities===<br /> *Flaming Arrows - This unit can fire flaming arrows for a short period of time. Flaming arrows have a greater damage effect and can set fire to flammable objects. Flaming arrows don't function in wet weather.<br /> *Screens - A shield that can be erected during the deployment phase when you are defending. It impedes the movement of enemies, and blocks enemy projectiles.<br /> <br /> ==Other Information==<br /> Bow Attendants are, without a doubt, much more reliable at shooting which is reason enough to have them in your armies instead of the woefully incompetent [[Bow Levy (ROTS Unit)|Bow Levies]]. They are also very valuable for Castle Garrisons since the concept of siege weaponry didn't exist yet in the Gempei War. Be warned about pitting Bow Attendants against [[Foot Samurai (ROTS Unit)|Foot Samurai]] as their superior archery skills will actually allow them to defeat Bow Attendants despite being outnumbered by a ratio of 2 to 1. It is strongly recommended for Bow Attendants to be recruited in a Province that has both a Master Bowmaker and a Hunting Lodge as the Exceptional Accuracy Bonus will make them almost as good as Foot Samurai while being slightly cheaper in both Recruitment and Upkeep costs.<br /> <br /> ==Comprehensive Unit Stats==<br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> ! <br /> !

The challenging of older ideas may not always be encouraged, but in such an atmosphere of learning, development of the arts proceeds apace. <br /> <br /> The ideas of Confucius (551 - 478 BC) were hugely influential across Asia, including Japan. Confucius valued education as a way of bettering people and society, and his ideas encouraged a meritocratic approach to education. Those who could learn should learn as far Confucian philosophy was concerned. At the same time, the growth of Japanese Imperial influence required more courtiers and administrators: these men had to be educated to a high standard if they were going to be capable of doing their jobs. A strong man with a good sword arm was not enough to run a province properly.<br /> <br /> ==Other Information==<br /> Although Expensive and time-consuming to build, Provincial Academies are a critical investment in the campaign as the costs for researching the Budo and Bunka Arts are extremely high. The final technologies, [[Bushido (ROTS Art)|Bushido]] and [[Way of Chi (ROTS Art)|Way of Chi]], are notoriously expensive, costing 22 turns and 22 turns respectively to complete.<br /> <br /> [[Category:ROTS Buildings]]</div>

They are well drilled, and can maintain a good rate of fire and be fairly accurate too. Their weapons are capable of inflicting horrible wounds, like most modern large-bore rifles. The Kihetai have a robust sense of morale, but their resilience is not bottomless. They are not particularly competent in close combat, and will suffer if they are overrun by a cavalry attack. <br /> <br /> The Meiji Restoration saw the foundation of a modern army and navy for Japan. Many of the senior officers in the Imperial Japanese Army were natives of Choshu, and this lead to tensions with the Imperial Japanese Navy, where men from Satsuma occupied the top jobs. The two domains had a long traditional enmity, and this continued as a not-so-covert struggle for dominance in Japanese affairs between the Army and the Navy. Favouritism in both services made sure that men of Choshu and Satsuma were usually favoured for promotion in the services, further entrenching the rivalry. This was to have profound consequences for Japanese politics, diplomacy, and even the course of the Second World War. Well before then, however, the situation became so bad that Army officers from regions other than Choshu actually formed a secret society, the Double Leaf Society, to root out &quot;corrupt&quot; officers. Their fanaticism, and the fanaticism of other secret groups, also spilled out into wider politics.<br /> <br /> ==Strengths &amp; Weaknesses==<br /> *Good accuracy and reload rate.<br /> *Average in melee.<br /> *Weak against cavalry.<br /> *Presence encourages nearby friendly units.<br /> *Very good morale.<br /> *Choshu-Exclusive Unit.<br /> <br /> ===Special Abilities===<br /> *Kneel Fire - The first rank of this unit will kneel to allow the first two ranks to fire simultaneously.<br /> *Suppression Fire - This ability increases reload rate but lowers accuracy. Enemy units hit by suppression fire are slowed and suffer a morale penalty.<br /> <br /> ==Other Information==<br /> <br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> !<br /> ! Kihetai<br /> !

However, this comes at the cost of their stats which are slightly lower than their late-game and foreign counterparts, meaning that they will lose in a one-on-one fight if they're pitted against them instead of Line Infantry units.<br /> <br /> ===Second Opinion===<br /> *Overall, Kihetai are a superior alternative to Line Infantry and Imperial Infantry. Especially when recruited at a province with a Gunsmith and Firing Range.<br /> <br /> [[Category:FOTS Infantry Units]]</div>

A family member can start off with between 0-2 stars in command and can earn more by fighting and winning battles. An army without a general is more likely to rout in battle than an army that is led by a family member, even if he has 0 command.<br /> <br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> ! Command<br /> !

He possess neither.<br /> |-<br /> | 1<br /> |<br /> | Command ability is, at best, a yawning gap in this man's personality.<br /> |-<br /> | 2<br /> |<br /> | This man knows how to shout orders, but these are often neither timely nor relevant.<br /> |-<br /> | 3<br /> |<br /> | This man lacks a real aura of command, but makes up for it with a good loud voice and a small talent for instilling fear.<br /> |-<br /> | 4<br /> |<br /> | This man has a basic talent for command, although he sometimes lacks confidence.<br /> |-<br /> | 5<br /> |<br /> | This man shows skill in battle command, but from time to time he makes tactical errors.<br /> |-<br /> | 6<br /> |<br /> | On a battlefield this man inspires confidence in his soldiers. Sometimes the facade cracks - but not often.<br /> |-<br /> | 7<br /> |<br /> | This man's sound grasp of strategy and tactics inspires confidence in all who follow him into battle.<br /> |-<br /> | 8<br /> |<br /> | <br /> |-<br /> | 9<br /> |<br /> | At the sound of this man's voice armies march and mighty nations quake!<br /> |-<br /> | 10<br /> |<br /> | <br /> |}<br /> <br /> *Management<br /> This attribute determines the character's ability to govern a province. Higher management increases income and public order in the assigned settlement.<br /> <br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> ! Management<br /> ! Effects<br /> ! Description<br /> |-<br /> | 0<br /> |<br /> | An under-achieving oyster would show more signs of being able to manage the day-to-day affairs of an empire.<br /> |-<br /> | 1<br /> |<br /> | This man should not be entrusted with running a shrimp stall, let alone anything important.<br /> |-<br /> | 2<br /> |<br /> | Administration is not this man's forte. He can manage simple matters, but without skill.<br /> |-<br /> | 3<br /> |<br /> | This man has dogged determination as a replacement for administrative flare.<br /> |-<br /> | 4<br /> |<br /> | This man's limited administrative talent produces results that are adequate but far from inspired.<br /> |-<br /> | 5<br /> |<br /> | This man has talent but becomes flustered when the unexpected spoils his best laid plans.<br /> |-<br /> | 6<br /> |<br /> | More often than not this man solves administrative problems but some crises leave him floundering.<br /> |-<br /> | 7<br /> |<br /> | This man is an efficient administrator, well able to deal with unexpected crises.<br /> |-<br /> | 8<br /> |<br /> | This man is a whirlwind of efficiency, cutting through the red tape at every turn.<br /> |-<br /> | 9<br /> |<br /> | This man shapes the business of state to his will, and gets any task done despite any challenge.<br /> |-<br /> | 10<br /> |<br /> | This man shapes the affairs of the world to his plans, and lesser men obey in all things.<br /> |}<br /> <br /> *Loyalty<br /> This attribute is very important as it gauges the character's willingness to serve and follow your faction and determines the success rate of an enemy attempt at bribery.<br /> All family members start off with a loyalty rating of 4 which can either increase or decrease depending on several factors such as traits, retainers, religion, and events.<br /> A family member with less than 4 loyalty is considered a dangerous liability that will either rebel against you or gladly join another faction for a lump sum of gold.<br /> <br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> !

Loyalty. Loyalty. Words to live by, every day.<br /> |-<br /> | 7<br /> |<br /> | Friends and loved ones are always causes to be supported, as far as this man is concerned.<br /> |-<br /> | 8<br /> |<br /> | This man is seen as solidly loyal to his comrades-in-arms, no matter what may come to pass.<br /> |-<br /> | 9<br /> |<br /> | Loyalty is the core of this man's soul. He will stand with his people, even unto death.<br /> |-<br /> | 10<br /> |<br /> | <br /> |}<br /> <br /> *Influence<br /> <br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> ! Influence<br /> !

He is simply regarded as something of a duffer.<br /> |-<br /> | 3<br /> |<br /> | This man is of scant importance. He occasionally says sensible things, but the occasions are few.<br /> |-<br /> | 4<br /> |<br /> | Sometimes this man's counsel carries weight, and his opinion is sought on carefully selected matters.<br /> |-<br /> | 5<br /> |<br /> | This man's word carries weight in the lesser palaces of the world, although the truly mighty largely ignore him.<br /> |-<br /> | 6<br /> |<br /> | More often than not this man's counsel is listened to with respect even if it does not always carry the day.<br /> |-<br /> | 7<br /> |<br /> | This man's good qualities make him someone who can tip the balance of many arguments.<br /> |-<br /> | 8<br /> |<br /> | This man carries enormous political weight, and his words sway the opinions of most lesser men.<br /> |-<br /> | 9<br /> |<br /> | When this man speaks, all stop to listen to his words. Even his opinions have the force of law for many.<br /> |-<br /> | 10<br /> |<br /> | When this man speaks, his words carry the wisdom of the Gods to his listeners.<br /> |}<br /> <br /> ===Diplomat===<br /> *Influence<br /> <br /> ===Spy===<br /> *Subterfuge<br /> <br /> ===Assassin===<br /> *Subterfuge<br /> This attribute determines the Assassin's success rate at sabotaging buildings and killing characters.<br /> Preying on enemy armies that are leaderless is a safe and easy way for an Assassin to gain experience as it is almost impossible for an inexperienced Assassin to touch an enemy General or even a Diplomat.<br /> <br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> ! Subterfuge<br /> ! Effects<br /> ! Description<br /> |-<br /> | 0<br /> |<br /> | This man is an innocent, cast adrift in a world of rather cunning weasels.<br /> |-<br /> | 1<br /> |<br /> | Cunnnig and guile are the last words that would be used to describe this transparent, naieve individual.<br /> |-<br /> | 2<br /> |<br /> | Subterfuge is not a weapon found in this man's intellectual armoury.<br /> |-<br /> | 3<br /> |<br /> | <br /> |-<br /> | 4<br /> |<br /> | Sometimes this man recognises subterfuge for what it is. Sometimes he even makes use of it himself.<br /> |-<br /> | 5<br /> |<br /> | Subterfuge is a tool that this man can use, even though he makes occasional mistakes.<br /> |-<br /> | 6<br /> |<br /> | This man can plot and conspire with enthusiasm and sometimes with real skill.<br /> |-<br /> | 7<br /> |<br /> | This man has more cunning than a sackful of hungry weasels.<br /> |-<br /> | 8<br /> |<br /> | This man has a mind of serpentine complexity, and is able to create and penetrate the most cunning of plots.<br /> |-<br /> | 9<br /> |<br /> | <br /> |-<br /> | 10<br /> |<br /> | <br /> |}<br /> <br /> ===Admiral===<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:RTW Gameplay and Features]]</div>
