Notes
Good strategy against early aggression. Weak to mongols - counter is to move to another gold mine and outpost up x 2.
Take Daimyo manner, eco upgrades throughout

Once you are up to the 3rd age, secure, relics, continue to mass mounted samurai and veteran yumi ashigaru (archers), capture sacred sites
