Quick question.I usually play this game on the third difficulty setting. The other day, I bumped it up to the fourth difficulty setting for a skirmish game I was playing. I immediately noticed that my AI opponent had a much larger army than mine(by thousands and thousands). I was wondering by changing the difficulty setting, does the AI get more troops or do I get less, or both?
Cheers

The manual indicates that the difference between the difficulty levels is the relative size of the forces. At Taisho (third?) level the ratio is 100 : 105 (Player: AI). At Daimyo level this becomes 100:118. I believe the ratio refers to points not numbers of troops so if the AI picks lower value units you may well be significantly outnumbered.

This would make sense then. Many Ashigaru units few Samurai. I was really outnumbered. Thanks for the reply.

In my opinion both are wrong ))
