The Battle of Hon Tsiu Yama

[FierceKitty]

That ninja party attempted all battle long to climb the battlements; the Oda player didn't notice she was allowed to start them in the castle.
The onsen stayed open, hoping to attract some R. and R. yen from local armies.

Mayu Shiro, painstakingly scratchbuilt, and with a keep still obviously reeling from the latest earthquake.

The Ii samurai lived up to their reputation, smashing a unit of monks and turning the flank of another.

Monks from Mii Dera overwhelming some rather out-dated samurai bowmen.

What is a 16th-century battle without push of pike?

Lovely stuff.

Don't let your C-in-C in range of a shinobi with a matchlock!

A shot of the field as a whole. The Oda centre did well, but the flanks crumbled under the pressure of the Takeda horse, and their morale shattered when news got out that Ieyasu had been taken prisoner too. As his captor remarked to his Daimyo, "If the head of the honourable Tokugawa is worth a hundred koku, what is the reward for the whole man, Shingen San?"

As it happens, this member of our household is actually called Nobunaga. He is, however, a gentle and affectionate animal who could never command an army.

More lovely photos. My next Renaissance army will be a 15mm Samurai one, hence my interest.

Questions:
- What ruleset did you use?
- What scale are the miniatures and terrain (all 15mm)?
- Where are the miniatures and terrain from (especially that cute little Torii)?

[FierceKitty]

10mm figures, mainly Pendraken, but some Irregular and AIM, and a very few Magister Militum. The houses are 6mm Mura, the castle and pond scratchbuilt, and I bought the torii out of a battered cardboard box of odds and ends in a small shop in Kyoto, I'm afraid (though I think it's from a Japanese model railway terrain maker).
 
The rules were my own, Ten More Sons!, which I am happy to send to anyone interested. I used to do Japanese in 15mm back in the 1990s, but since adopting a more international lifestyle I've reduced scale; as it is, storage is still on the edge of crisis most of the time.
