more missile damage, twice the armour and you can field 3 of them for the same initial cost and upkeep as fielding 2 bow warrior monks.Īlso generally from my experience if you put these two units in 1v1 the daikyu will win 90% of the time. See Chosokabe Bow Monks Accuracy and Reload Speed,and Compare it to Daikyu Samurai.īut to my research,I do belive that Daikyu Samurai is intended for players that will go Christian,when Going Christian,the player lost access to monk units,and the most popular are the bow monks,so the Chosokabe are the only clan that has 175 range archers,even as a Christians.ĭaikyu are actually a good counter to bow warriors and other bow units in general because they have more sodliers per unit. Give them golden accuracy and they will crush anything the enemy is sending at you. They have longer range than any other archer unit in the game has.

Originally posted by LuNi:Daikyu Samurai are extremely strong. When CA are just lazy to add Matchlock Cavalryįun Fact: While being slightly stronger than Yari Cavalry,they're so expensive that they rarely take Yari Cavalry place.įun Fact: I want to complain to CA,why did they limit this unit. High Damage Low Range Cavalry,pretty much valued for their Shocking bullets.įun Fact: Killed many of it's own allies when not careful.Ī Mix of Ashigaru+Katana Samurai+Kisho Ninja,a good unit that's probably OP at some point.įun Fact: They're so cheap and effective because mori doesn't have any land special units.įun Fact: While being obsolete to Bow Monk,this unit are intended to be your bow monks replacement,if you go Christian.įun Fact: They're not worth it when fighting toe to toe,but use them with some dishonor,and you'll know their purposeįun Fact: They're the only non garrison,or hero unit that has Second Wind.įun Fact: pair them up with bow monks that only attacks ranged units,and some yari samurai in the flanks and you'll just steam roll the enemy. The best Anti-Cavalry Matchlock units,while being destructive to infantry formation.įun Fact: The Knockback effect is very effective to cavalry units,since when a cavalry unit is knocked back it's an instant death,while infantry can still stand up.
