Potentially bad news for anyone working on a Sekigahara game as Stephen Turnbull finds out about Shiramine Jun's research on the battle. ospreypublishing.com/blog/The_battle_Sekigahara_what_went_right/?fbclid=IwAR319aldHGSUFGWrOzqL59saDw0dDStCqG_ImJEBDn96doZc4-x_RTtSBbU

Interesting. I also use Nihon Senshi for it's terrain and orders of battle. They have proven to be, sadly, some of the only sources available, as many of the primary documents were destroyed during the war. However, this story reminds me of the controversy surrounding Nobunaga's use of a 3-rank rotating line of musketeers at Nagashino. Around the turn of the century, new research came out suggesting this was not true, and that Oda instead used 1,000 gunners with 2,000 loaders.
