High honour gives a relation boost, meaning that since I haven't attacked too many people for a while, my vassals are more content with things.
but wouldnt that change the moment you attack Uesigi (sp?)
I am not sure if I will lose the bonus but I will definately not pick up the low honour relation penalty which is a bugger.
Are relations the primary factor when considering likely vassal revolts? Is having a leader with low intrigue a concern?
ahh good
in that case timing is your friend attack them when their armies are occupied and losing
Also, unlike in other games he gets the provinces he captures right away. So if he manages to grap enough provinces fast enough that might be enough to turn the scales for his favor before Uesugi can recover.
Take on the evil southern blob, and be victorious! (or die a horrible, yet glorious death and let your son submit and THEN plot your revenge!)
I would suggest a more careful approach. If you eliminate your other neighbors in the north, there will be less plotters to help Uesugi.
Eliminate your neighbors on your Northern Border. They are weak and you are strong. That way when war comes, you won't have to worry about being backstabbed from behind. The best kind of war you could fight after that is a war where you can collapse on the Ussugi and prettify your borders along your southern front, using your border with the Ashina and Ussugi as a choke point you can hold down until you can strike a peace treaty to give you that land. After that, try to find a way to secure long-lasting peace with Ussugi such as kidnapping one of their Clan leader's sons or something along those lines. Then you're free to develop a master plot to tear the clan apart and continue your march into Japan.
Find that a little mistake.
The Date clan should be called Idate clan.
The clan name first pronounced "Idate" in a 14th century document. It changed to "Date" after 17th century.

Okay, that's true. But no one ever uses the name Idate. Not even the Japanese.
I'm worried... it seems too easy to blob in this game. Having several provinces should be very hard to manage without some level of vassal management and self-interest from the vassals, and now it reads like it's a breeze to go through. Fourty years, and the Nanbu managed to grab provinces down to the end of Mutsu?
I mean, only Oda Nobunaga really managed to blob first, and we all know what happened.

To be honest... he's not expanding fast enough.
Sure, he's taken most of Mutsu, but look at the relative size of the provinces in the maps shown in part V and VI. The Tohoku provinces are huge compared to the provinces in the rest of the country. By my count he only has about 20 or so provinces, and he's taken 50 years to get that far. He only has 100 years left to take and hold half of Japan (another 150+ provinces). If he doesn't really start picking up the pace, I don't see how that will be possible.
Nah... the Hojo, Amago, Ouchi, Mori, etc., all either predated his blobbing or were contemporary.
Once the daimyo secured their local support bases and the central government's authority withered, it really didn't take that long for Japan to unify... 50 years, maybe? And although Sengoku starts with the political map of 1467, everything I've seen suggests that in terms of gameplay Paradox jumped right to the mid 16th-century.
Yup, one of the Uesugi clan members decided to leave the Uesugi clan and start his own clan. I forsee a bright future for him
not if you have a say in that future of his, i think not, since him and ashina seem like the likely next target for your expansion
what a mess.. clan borders look horrible (except Nanbu), so many exclaves.. AI still got no sense of aesthetics... are these fuwa exclaves property of fuwa leader or his vassals? do remote vassals have a bigger chance to revolt knowing that their current lord cant reach them?
but that attack went good. but you have money problems, is there some way of taking money in peace deals? kidnapping and selling back hostages? is there a chance to capture enemy general in the battle? then sell it back?
so many questions
