Next update this Tuesday at the soonest or the moment someone bumps this thread to another page (this one is really image heavy :/), whichever happens LAST.

Proud to do my part :salute:

Thanks bro. We need more patriots such as yourself... and others who posted. :salute:

Why not exchange the Matkutsudo for the 10000GP. you gonna need the money badly.

Money comes and goes (reallllly quickly in fact). A monk (slightly less damage warrior that auto heals basically) with 9 Atk/8 Def and the ability to restore AP to characters (say, have Elina cast protect all shikigami twice in a defensive battle) is something that will be useful for a long time. Just the costs saved on having him tank damage in the front line will quickly add up. On the other hand, 10k GP would only be enough to buy some 200 more troops and then its gone.

Precisely. Good combatants are worth more than their weight in gold. I regret now not taking more additional bonus units - especially that tactician would come in handy now. Unfortunately the fact that they lack any story significance renders them first candidates for a kick-out once we reach unit limit.

Update II

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Let us have a look on our present situation. Adjutant, bring me the latest tactical map.

whoIsShe.png
Yes, sir!

srupdate2_0000_sranceupdate18.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
It doesn't look half-bad. Much better than I expected...

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Tell field marshal Rance we're...

ranceA.png
What is that that you want her (hey, there... :smug: have I fucked you already?) to tell me?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Rance? After my last stunt I thought I'd never forgive...

ranceC.png
Who said I'd forgiven or forgotten...? It's time for retribution! :twisted:

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
What...? Wait?! Whaaaaat!? Why am I tied up? And why on earth am I hanging down from the ceiling?

suzumeA.png
Nin-nin :)

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Fuck...

ranceA.png
Good job Suzume. We'll talk about your... reward later.

suzumeA.png
Yei!

ranceB.png
And who's mister wise-guy now, huh?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
What do you want?

ranceC.png
Justice! Man at times like this I regret that our resident paedophile is not in fact a compulsive faggot. He'd surely find many ways to punish you. As it is we're going to resort to good ol' fashioned physical torture...

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Rance, you're again forgetting something.

ranceC.png
And you will tell me that, right?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Only the powers the Holy Codex bestowed upon me can save you from certain death. You surely remember that dream. You were on the battlefield fighting with house Tanegashima...

*memory flash*

ranceA.png
Their forces sure are large.

srupdate2_0001_sranceupdate18a-2.jpg


ranceC.png
OHSHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII...!!!

srupdate2_0002_sranceupdate18a.jpg

srupdate2_0007_sranceupdate18g.jpg


*/memory flash*

ranceA.png
Brrrrr...

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Except it wasn't just a dream. I saved your sorry arse with my powahs. You owe me Rance.

ranceA.png
So you can do shit like that with a flick of a finger?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Once in a while, when the Hivemind permits me to. So far we've been entertaining enough. Yet there's no telling what future holds. I cannot abuse these powers.

ranceA.png
Meh, whatever. Suzume, get him down.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
That won't be necessary.

*Wheez*

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
*Something sharp snaps the rope.*

*Falling face down.*

*Just when the floor is about to flatten his pretty face a dark shape catches the falling man.*

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
My thanks to you Gekkou. You've done well.

gekkou.png
I just did as Nobunaga-sama has ordered me to.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Splendid job, nonetheless!

ranceC.png
You've been pulling my leg all the time! You could have set yourself free like that! There's no Codex powers you spoke of!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
(You don't know what you don't know) :smug:

ranceC.png
Fuck you!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Ok, let's forget about the past. Before us is the new bright beginning. I solemnly swear not to do the shit like that ever again. You will get you supplies of fresh arses ASAP.

ranceA.png
I'm not happy with that but it'll have to be enough.

ranceC.png
But if anyone from the present here will ever speak of what here occurred heads will roll.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
suzumeA.png
gekkou.png
Acknowledged. :)smug:)

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Let us proceed with our battle operations.

ranceA.png
So you've declared the war on Tanegashima.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Yes. Beside their stronghold all the other defence points have been conquered.

srupdate2_0008_sranceupdate19.jpg


ranceC.png
What we're waiting for? Call my unit! We're going on them!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
It's not prudent to risk your life against a clan of musketeers!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
I suggest we send other, strong commanders to hold the front line together with Elina for defence and Omachi for massive bombardment at the backs.

ranceA.png
I don't like pussying out of battle, but you might be right.

srupdate2_0010_sranceupdate111.jpg


ranceA.png
Oh fuck! Shit's getting real!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Told ya. I've got a nasty feeling the days of leisure-battles are over.

srupdate2_0012_sranceupdate113.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
All Guard Shikigami is your best friend in situations like that

srupdate2_0013_sranceupdate114.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Shit! Did you see that?!

ranceA.png
Yeah, the girl went through protective spells as if they were nothing. I must get her pussy.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Poor Nogiku :(

ranceA.png
She'll get over it :shrugs:

srupdate2_0015_sranceupdate121.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Once again Victory!

ranceB.png
:smug:

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
What's our next target?

ranceD.png
Well, I've been hearing a lot about the battle Mikos 'servicing' men.

srupdate2_0016_sranceupdate121a.jpg


ranceD.png
It's a stark injustice to force young girls to do such terrible things.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Let me guess? Once they are 'free' they'll do the only right thing i.e. 'service' just you?

ranceB.png
You're tuning into my mindwave length by day :smug:

ranceA.png
On the other hand that might not be a good thing at all. I hate competition! :Draws his sword:

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Yeah, and I hate animu girls. :roll: (I prefer real thing :smug:) Let's just do our thing, ok?

ranceA.png
I don't trust you. Will keep an eye on you... :sheaths the blade sloooowly:

Time passes.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
The last bastion of battle mikos stands before us.

ranceC.png
Commence the damn attack already!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
As ordered :roll:

srupdate2_0018_sranceupdate123.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Ok, that's no longer funny.

ranceA.png
This is where the popamole ends and serious hardcore stuff starts :smug:

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
You speak like a true Codexer!

ranceA.png
I've been meaning to ask you... WTF is Codex?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
:roll: You don't know what you don't know... :roll:

ranceA.png
Whatever. It's probably something contagious.

ranceA.png
The ally of justice and cute girls is victorious once more!!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
More like the number one enemy:roll:

ranceD.png
Did you say something?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Nope. Anyway, We've won that by a very small margin. And without Omachi this would've been our undoing. We need to think of something for the future.

ranceA.png
You're worrying to much.

ranceB.png
About my reward.

* Rance strips himself naked and runs off to the battlefield *

ranceF.png
Gahahaha!

srupdate2_0023_sranceupdate132a.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Hmm... maybe we should give our troops a moment of respite?

srupdate2_0024_sranceupdate132b.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Guess, not :/

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Tenshi Sect declared war on us!

ranceA.png
No wonder. Nobunaga's been acting strange against them recently.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
I should have foreseen that, dammit.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Adjutant, send the message to our main commanders! Rally all squads! By tomorrow I want a detailed report of exact numbers of our soldiers and their morale. And contact our propaganda officers! Every deserter will be put down to testing our new firing-squad! Go, now!

ranceA.png
Why are you being so frantic about it?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
This is going to have devastating effect on our morale. I'd be a miracle if we don't lose half of our present standing forces.

ranceA.png
You're exaggerating

Next turn.

srupdate2_0025_sranceupdate133.jpg


srupdate2_0027_sranceupdate134a.jpg


srupdate2_0028_sranceupdate134b.jpg


srupdate2_0030_sranceupdate134d.jpg


srupdate2_0031_sranceupdate134e.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Kouhime, get out of here!

Kou2.png
But what...?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Go, I heard 3G was looking for you. It's urgent!. I will tell Rance the news.

Kou2.png
Aww..., ok.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
What on earth bastard were you thinking? What would've happened if the child saw you and Sill?

ranceA.png
First time I see you losing your cool like that...

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Moron, idiot, cretin, dimwit, noodlehead!

ranceA.png
Ok, ok. I got it. I won't have Sill give me blowjobs in public (But only blowjobs gehehe :smug:).

ranceA.png
So, what do you have to tell me?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
As I expected we had a massive desertion throughout our lines. From our current estimates 865 soldiers have run away and joined the enemy.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
This means that about twenty percent of each unit have abandoned their posts.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Fortunately we had substantial money reserves. I contacted mercenaries. They should feel in over half of the manpower we've lost.

ranceA.png
Then there's that.

ranceC.png
Now let's take care of that Tenshi sect fuckers.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Our forces are already marching on their citadels in Naniwa.

ranceD.png
Why do we attack the best protected fortresses in whole Japan?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Propaganda effect. We must show off our strength. Besides we'd have to taken them over anyway. They surely won't expect attack on them now, when they think we've been weakened.

ranceA.png
I'm not sure... (I think you are following some different agenda. But I'll let you do as you please... For now...).

Time passes.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Two of their strongholds are belongs to us. Now the last part!

srupdate2_0036_sranceupdate1154a.jpg


ranceB.png
Peasants :smug:

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Lots of them!

srupdate2_0039_sranceupdate1154d.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Ain't too good. We've barely scratched them!

ranceA.png
Don't wuss out! It's not over yet!

srupdate2_0040_sranceupdate1154f.jpg


srupdate2_0042_sranceupdate1154h.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
We've barely won. Against a bunch of freaking farmers!

ranceA.png
Yes, the sheer numbers they posses are formidable.

ranceC.png
We must finish them off and fast!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Not now! We're in the war with Takugawa!

ranceC.png
Whaa...?!

srupdate2_0043_sranceupdate1156.jpg


ranceC.png
Who the fuck declared war on them!?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
You did! Here's your signature!

ranceC.png
What, when, how?!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Wasn't it your decision?

ranceC.png
No, Goddamit!

ranceD.png
Tenshi spies?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
We must deal with the furries first! They border with Owari!

ranceC.png
For fuck's sake!

First clash:

srupdate2_0044_sranceupdate1156a.jpg


ranceD.png
Anyway, when you said Takugawa are furries did you mean...?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Yes!

srupdate2_0045_sranceupdate1157.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Tanuki!

ranceA.png
:facepalm:

Tanuki (狸 or タヌキ?) is the common Japanese name for the Japanese raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides viverrinus). They have been part of Japanese folklore since ancient times. The legendary tanuki is reputed to be mischievous and jolly, a master of disguise and shapeshifting, but somewhat gullible and absent-minded.
Tanuki is often somewhat mistakenly translated as raccoon or badger into English, animals which are similar to tanuki in appearance, but actually belong to different Carnivora families.
Learn more about Tanuki from auntie Wikipedia and watch Pom Poko anime from Studio Ghibli!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Wait, after the battle we've managed to capture one of their chief vassals!

ranceD.png
Is she a beautiful girl?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
No, it's a tanuki.

ranceA.png
Hate furrfags. You interrogate IT yourself!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
You're 'secret' head of Nobunaga family, or not? Act like one!

ranceA.png
Damn...

srupdate2_0047_sranceupdate1159.jpg


srupdate2_0048_sranceupdate1160.jpg


srupdate2_0049_sranceupdate1161.jpg


srupdate2_0050_sranceupdate1162.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
But that's not all the raccoon dog had to say folks. You see, this perticular tanuki harbours a dark secret!

* Some time later. *

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
So, tempura makes tanuki go all crazy about it?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Might it be that this piece of info is actually useful? :M

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Anyway, it's the time for the final showdown with Takugawa!

ranceB.png
:yeah:

srupdate2_0066_sranceupdate1174.jpg


srupdate2_0067_sranceupdate1175.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Just look at the raccoon fatso :shock:

ranceA.png
Good thing I sent Nogiku and Katsuie for defence, huh?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
(Yeah, you sent them) :roll:

srupdate2_0068_sranceupdate1176.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Katsuie total defence!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Elina, give me protection on everyone!

srupdate2_0070_sranceupdate1178.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Omachi and Natori!

Joined Oda my arse!!! Where is that fucking lazy furrfag!?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
I'm more surprised you let a furry join our ranks.

ranceD.png
It was... well, in the hindsight I don't know what made me not kill that faggot then and there.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
:smug:

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Itz a mystery! (Good he doesn't know about Senhime).

*Anyway, one turn later:*

srupdate2_0095_sranceupdate1221.jpg


ranceC.png
You certainly took your time furrfag.

furrFgA.png
Yes, yes I know, but...

ranceC.png
But what!?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
His stats are decent but not exceptional. Still, for some reason he seems more powerful than his stats suggest when in battle.

srupdate2_0097_sranceupdate1312.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
We've achieved a lot at impressive pace of time.

ranceA.png
Still too slow. It'll take months before we enter alternative route.

ranceA.png
Our next target is house Uesugi!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
!!?

ranceA.png
What?!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
There's no way I shall let that be! :x

To be continued...

And this is the end of the second update for your favourite Let's Gahahaha with Rance and Kenshin! - SRance if LP (NSFW) . I hope you'd enjoyed it.

I will post next one probably around Thursday, but do not count on anything over Christmas holiday period. :attention whore mode on: That is, if there is anyone who counts on them. :attention whore mode off:

Besides, it's not really a type of furry. It's just a talking walking animal, like Tawky Tawny. And you wouldn't call Tawky Tawny a furry, would you?

@ Mrowak: Well, there's always the argument that Omachi is female. And the raccoon dude obviously is not.

:M

Jo, but compared to hardcore furry porn, he's rather harmless, that's for sure.

An eternal question. What is a furrfag? The one that is born as a youkai (in our case) or the one desiring their ehm... 'company'? :smug: (no offence meant)

Jo, but compared to hardcore furry porn, he's rather harmless, that's for sure.

Yeah, Ieasu is pretty swell fellow once you get to know him. I still personally prefer Senhime though even just for the simple fact - good foot soldiers are more desirable than even better pure warriors. There is simply greater deficit of the former later in game.

That fatso's combat skill help great deal in dungeons. And this insanity difficulty need all the edge you can get. Anyway, since you lost Senhime already killing him is senseless.

As if I ever intended to... I'm much farther in game than this update suggests.

You're quite a pervert, I see, Cenobyte. :roll:

I blame it on the internet. It's a wild and dangerous place :P

Update III

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
I shall never let that be! :x

ranceD.png
Ok, what's with that reaction?

ranceD.png
Since when are you so against conquest of all?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
You leave Uesugi be... for now. (You're not ready yet... and neither am I.)

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
It's... it's just not the time yet...

ranceA.png
(Something smells. Acting like a whiny emo bitch is not your style. What are you hiding...?)

ranceD.png
...K? So how about finishing off Tenshi fools?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
No way!

ranceC.png
Why? What now?!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Tenshi won't constitute any considerable threat any more...

ranceC.png
You're calling rebellions throughout our provinces incited by that bunch of raving madmen not a considerable threat?!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
I will take care of them. I've got my connections.

ranceC.png
You're fucking Buddhist are you not?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg


ranceC.png
Fucking knew it!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
It has nothing to do with that!

ranceC.png
(Now I know Suzume was right! It was you who started off the whole business with Tokugawa!)

ranceC.png
*Unsheathes Chaos* Tell me, one reason I should not cut you down here and now.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
I really did not want it to come to that...

*Rance approaches fast, blade in hand*

*Just about the moment Rance is to get the man in his range...*

*Wheez!*

*...the man puts him into his own with sword drawn*

*Clang!*

ranceC.png
Whoa!!

*Rance barely block the first blow*

chaosSword.png
This is bad!

ranceC.png
Whaat!?

*Clang*

chaosSword.png
The odds are truly stuck against you my friend!

ranceC.png
(I can barely avoid his atta... OHSHIIIII...!)

*Clang!*

ranceC.png
WTF is this bullshit! You're supposed to be a hopeless RPG ne...!

*Clang!*

ranceC.png
...rd Mrowak!!!

*The man does not respond to the taunts*

*He does not twirl around, hacking air right and left like a popamole dumbfag from Dragon Age II. Rather, he follows Rance's movements closely, every moment never, allowing him to escape from his vision. His attacks are sharp, precise, quick and heavy and all Rance can do is block them*

Bollocks! I'll show you real fight! Rance Cossack Dance!

*Rance squats down and thrusts forward aiming at an opening!*

*Clang!*

*As if waiting for that the man closes the vulnerable spot and parries effortlessly, blade pointing to the floor*

*Chaos slides down the other sword's edge*

*Just for a split of a second Rance loses balance*

*Whoop!*

*Which is enough for the man to land a blow with the hilt of his weapon onto Rance's temple*

ranceA.png
Aaaarghhhhhhhhhhhhh!

*the blow that pushes our hero back*

*Rance does not fall to the ground. He does not drop Chaos. Years of combat experience etched in his mind – those who fall unconscious, or lose their weapon, die!*

*But right now he is supporting himself with the magical blade in order not to drop to his knees.*

Whaa...? *gasp*

Lesson 1: Never underestimate your opponent. NEVER! I know your previous fights tell you differently but everyone can do you harm. I've seen better fighters than you, better men than you falling from a pitchfork of a common peasant!

ranceA.png
*panting* the... *panting*

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Lesson 2: Speaking while fighting is for noobs. You waste you breath, lose you movement coordination and focus. Taunts may work on brigands or born morons, not on a battle-hardened swordsman.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Lesson 3: Cossack dance?! WTF was that shit I don't even!? This is not a ballet, this was goddamn duel. With your haphazard uncoordinated movements I could have easily get you killed even though I did not mean to.

ranceC.png
hell...? *panting*

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Cossack dance... Seriously? But it all adds up now. It seemed to me from the very beginning you had Slavic roots. Anyway...

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Lesson 4: So as you not get the wrong impression: never hit anyone with a hilt of your sword if you intend to kill them anyway. This shit may look effective to an onlooker but there are shitloads of methods to your sword to better effect. Plus, if you regained your balance a second before I struck you down I'd have been toasted.

ranceA.png
Who...?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Everything in the right time Rance. First question: Why shouldn't you cut me down here and now? Well, you have your answer. I've given you in plainest possible terms.

ranceC.png
You... 're not Mrowak...?!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
I never said I was. The powers of Narrativium have been given to me but that does not mean I'm the one weaving this tale before us... or others. Besides, I find stories with more than one storyteller more interesting.

ranceC.png
Then, who... *panting* who, are you?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
I've had many names. The one you will call me from now on is...
napisj.jpg


ranceC.png
Whaa... I cannot into moonspeak!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
I thought we were speaking it now. :roll:

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Fucking Gaijin... Some Codexers on the other hand should be able to tell who I am no problem. (Damn, I think I spoiled too much)

ranceC.png
Fucker!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Coming back to the topic, you will leave Tenshi sect alone. I've got arrangement with Codex and I cannot break it no matter what.

ranceC.png
That Codex again!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Furthermore, you will not attack house Uesugi... yet... You cannot face their head – Uesugi Kenshin as you are now. If you are powerless against me you will be moreso against her, her being a woman and all, and you being... what's the phrase? Compulsive rapist? You simply are lacking in abilities and unfortunately I cannot help you in the duel.

ranceC.png
As if I wanted you to!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Precisely... But apart from that my hands are tied by blood oath.

ranceC.png
Convenient excuse!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Besides, in terms of sheer battle-field experience I feel I could learn much from you. I may be a decent swordsman and a good strategist but it means jack shit in close, hectic one-to-many combat.

ranceC.png
Cut the crap! I demand a rematch, fucker!!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Not today, I'm afraid. You are injured. But I promise you this: from now on we shall spar regularly. Who knows? You might even stand a chance against her one day?

ranceA.png
You mean Kenshin?! What's your connection with her?!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
… I just know her... More than you do... (now)

ranceC.png
Fine! Do as you wish! But I'd watch your back if I were you! I will never forget this treachery!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Wonderful. Shall we proceed then with our war effort?

ranceA.png
Grrrr... What is our next victim?!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Hannies declared war on us.

ranceC.png
Those pieces of pottery? They are soooooooooooooooooooo dead now!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
As he told...

sranceupdate3_0000_sranceupdate153.jpg


sranceupdate3_0001_sranceupdate164.jpg


AnagaoKagetora.jpg
So it was done.

ranceC.png
Now who the fuck, next!!!?

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
You still have not got over that?

ranceC.png
Grrr...!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Chill out a little!

ranceC.png
After I see you in your grave!!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Shizuka, could you help me calm him down!?

shizuka.png
...

ranceD.png
Masou. Well, well, well... Did you miss me?

ranceB.png
I've forgotten to fuck you ever since you came here.

ranceD.png
So, you're letting me fuck her and I'll forget about our little argument?

ranceD.png
Who knows, who knows, I might even consider...

shizuka.png


shizuka.png
Rance?

ranceD.png
What?

shizuka.png
A bunch of naked Japanese young blonde, buxom nudist girls behind you!

ranceB.png
WHERE!?

shizuka.png
:twisted:

ranceelectrified1.png
Arggghghhghhhh!!!

shizuka.png
He always falls for things like that... :twisted:

:flashback:

:/flashback:

shizuka.png
Two things in this world are truly predictable. Taxes and Rance. :twisted:

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Meet Masou Shizuka people. One of the few women 'resistant' to Rance's undeniable charms.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
Her initial attitude towards Rance is 'Hate'.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
And it will stay like that throughout the game, no matter what we'll do.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
I suppose this means Rance will miss all the fun on the siege of Asai-Asakura castle.

shizuka.png
Seems to be the case. :smug:

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
A surprisingly easy battle. Nothing to add.

sranceupdate3_0027_sranceupdate1339.jpg


ranceD.png
Hmm... Your actions prompted Uesugi to declare war on us.

ranceB.png
Guess, it's going to be my way now. Gahahahaha!

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
It does seem so.

AnagaoKagetora.jpg
(Drats! It's too fast! If Rance faces her in battle we'll be...)

To be continued...

Ok, ok people. It was an overkill with these extra story elements, but once they all appeared in my head I could not get rid of them. Also, I am aware that I treated our hero too harshly but no worries I will let him have an upper hand in the future.

More importantly, did you like things like that story? Originally, I came up with it in order to reduce the tedium of the first phase of the game as well as give some more backstory flavour. They were and still are to disappear once we enter Kenshin's route. However, as you see they are starting to live their own life with their sheer volume is slowing down our march to the second phase of the game. What should I do?

Add whatever comes to my mind? A little bit pulp fiction have not hurt anyone, right?

Remove them altogether – just show more important battles, their outcome etc?
