How to beat Sengoku Daimyo
Sengoku Daimyo commit to specializing in one of three unit types (melee, cavalry, or ranged) through Daimyo Estates, which unlock melee-focused Daimyo cavalry that grant nearby troops attack speed bonuses while clan-specific technologies multiply their chosen unit type's damage and durability, paired with an efficient Matsuri-Yatai food economy that scales into late-game production dominance enabling endless reinforcements.
General tips
Focus on sniping the Daimyo to remove its melee attack speed aura; it buffs ranged too but is more impactful for melee units.
It feels horrible to play cavalry against Sengoku because their Yari are way faster than normal horsemen; it's better to play fully infantry until Castle Age.
Shinobi can slow your units, making TC dives more dangerous when facing Sengoku.
