Gahahaha, let's play Sengoku Rance! (NSFW)

[Cenobyte]

I believe the ugly guy that defends the Asai-asakura leads an animal or beast unit, even after you recruit him. Unfortunately the non-human units all have shitty stats. Even the best ones are going to suck hard considering they have crappy or non existent commander bonuses. And troops added beyond 500 and 2000 only add 50% and 25% of the base bonus respectively, so even massively large non-human units tend to be easy to take down.

Hmm, I dunno. I found the three youkai girls pretty strong. But apart from them, I've never used a nonhuman in combat (only for recruiting and scouting purposes).

Well, it could be a demon that is trying to get out by ripping you apart… naaah, it couldn’t be.

He’s got a good reason for that, I assure you.

Probably because they are dead.

…and it’s getting louder. That’s probably bad.

I also should mention that Ran won’t use Suzaku in battle anymore. Ike she ever had the chance, lucky me. Actually, it’s going so good I’m starting to worry.

Now that was unexpected. So Ryouma and Gon go to meet Mouri.

And so the Alliance between those two factions is forged. Which isn’t exactly good for us, oh well ce sera sera.

*Between the turn*

Turn #40

So we start our turn.

Thanks to recruiting both Kenshi and Ai we get the medicine that restores 30% of all wounded troops.

We also pimp up Rance as planed.

My glorious armies, march forward. TO VICTORY!

It’s time to give Houjou a crippling blow.

So after something like six tries we finally did it… we captured Nanjou Ran, the lover of Souun and also the one that bears one of Xavier’s Apostles.

Look man, Souun right? Believe me, thanks to me catching your beloved Ran I saved your life… well, at least for now. If I didn’t do it you both would have been consumed by the demon. True story.

Our lovely Lady can’t be recruited, yet. Let’s leave her for now.

Meanwhile let’s visit a certain dungeon.

Now this is strange, why is Rance injured? Bug maybe?

Out of my way weaklings.

Rance – usual guy in green.

Fast.

Jerking your hyper weapon with hyperspeed – serious business.

So Rance is carried back to the castle.

In the chest was this item. One thing I don’t understand is this “+100 attack damage”, does it mean that the attack kills a hundred more people or does it mean something else?

Ranmaru has now 7 out of 7 “like points”. Time to pimp her up.

Faster, better, stronger.

Rape is the only answer?

 

[WhiskeyWolf]

Don't know, never made it in time.

 

[JoKa]

she only survives in Ran's route, iirc. no rape necessary (or possible?), as she's quite willing.

and rance's "hurt" because you leveled him up.. his hp are regenerated at the start of a turn, so if his max hp rise during a turn, his current don't change.

 

[sportforredneck]

Gahahahahaha!

Thats because they don't command animal or monster units. They command standard warrior/samurai/ninja units just the same as the player, and they also have very high commander stats to make them strong. You can tell if the unit is considered monster or animal by looking at the icon representing them in battle. The youkai girls have the same sword/shield/shuriken that samurai/foot soldiers/ninja's have.

Now this is strange, why is Rance injured? Bug maybe?

Since you increased his level during the turn, his max HP went up but his current HP stayed the same.

In the chest was this item. One thing I don’t understand is this “+100 attack damage”, does it mean that the attack kills a hundred more people or does it mean something else?

In army battles, adds 100 kills. In captain battles, deal 100 more damage per attack. In a new game, you can also spend like 2 point to start out with this item, which is quite ridiculously powerful.

Oh.

...quite willing...

Riiight.

 

[Overweight Manatee]

...quite willing...

Riiight.

In case you didn't notice from her events, she fucks a lot of guys. In fact, shes probably the only one who still sleeps around after Rance has her.

Her sisters are another story, though. And the foursome is pretty hard to get.

 

[JoKa]

Sorry people, I was thinking about Ran when replying to Joka.

Blunder of a lifetime.

 

[lightbane]

And that's the end of Ranmaru's "story"? No sex scenes? Surely Rance is disappointed...

 

[Mrowak]

And that's the end of Ranmaru's "story"? No sex scenes?

Not the end yet.

To clear Ranmaru a few more events are needed. Shibata Katsuie's presence is required.

Spoiler

The bros before me said it earlier and I will repeat it: apart from one sneak peek scene Rance won't get to have more :intimate: relationship with her. The way she wins Katsuie's love is quite clever.

Surely Rance is disappointed...

You wouldn't imagine.

but after getting the takeda bonus, NOTHINGs hard to get I am very smug about this issue.

Damn, how did you do that? I somehow managed to defend against the blitz from the four generals and then "assassinated" their boss. But how did you get them, the commanders? In my games, as soon as defeated three of four generals simply disappeared and didn't take part in any battle with other houses from then on.

One lucky, capable bastard.

 

[KalosKagathos]

I predict that Jaesun will be making a cameo in this LP.

Har har.

 

[JoKa]

to get the takeda bonus, it's best to be on the kill the monkey route, as the

Spoiler

demon army

never appears there and so you have as much time as you want. after the assassination of shingen takeda, the 3 other generals leave and will be recruited by someone else - you can capture them then, although it takes quite a lot of patience, especially as they're quite tough. but it's worth it, it's SO worth it. (or you could chicken out and get a 100% save, but where's the fun in that?)

 

[Mrowak]

(or you could chicken out and get a 100% save, but where's the fun in that?)

There's no fun in that

Thanks for reply JoKa. I will get down to Monkey Route as soon as I finish Kenshin's.

*Between the turn*

Those guys just don’t give up.

Two captured and one of them is female, +1 to the ero-diary.

Seeing that more demons are coming Souun orders his troops to retreat and then seals the entrance to the cave… from the inside.

That’s one dude less to worry about.

*Between the turn*
---------------------------------------------------
Turn #41

Then gets a smack in the head, as usual.

So we get the opportunity to power up Rance. I choose to bring his Attack to the max=9. The “Cost+1” means that his unit will cost one more “National Power” point.

So traditionally.

Slaughter of range-units is always fun.

Well, he’s not here anymore. Deal with it.

Time to gather some intel.

Got you.

Sound like our next target is decided.

After Sounn goes missing we are able to recruit Ran.

Not bad stats.

Now, with our last fan we go for some satisfaction bonus.

Oh yes, I have been waiting for this.

It’s a totally awesome bonus. This is not the last time we will pick it.

End of Turn #41

[sportforredneck]

Fuck. Them. All.

 

[GarfunkeL]

YEEEEEE-HAAAAW!

 

[Overweight Manatee]

Wish Ran was... better. Meh stats (you can raise em to 6 easily through books) and no cool skills. Even the no-name 2nd game bonus diviner starts out with all-protect shikigami and better stats. She just has nothing to stand out next to characters like Kenshin, Isoroku, Yuzumi, and all of the powerful reinforcement and late-game commanders. Some kind of special skill involving Suzaku should have been added.

 

[GarfunkeL]

I think the biggest wish I now have for the game is that there should be bigger battles. Three lines instead of two and width of four or five or heck, six! And tie units into provinces. Commanders can quickly ride around the map as needed (dungeons, events, etc) but their units could only move one map per turn, except for cavalry which would make Takeda even stronger but what the hell.

Or you could turn the battle-screen into a chessboard-lookalike with some terrain features, make it into more tactical battles. You'd probably need to increase the maximum commander limit as well. But hell yeah!

Oh and more ero-scenes, ofc.

 

[laclongquan]

Ran is early easy-clear commander. You can clear her as quick as our fav ninjaretta. And once clear, beside the prebattle +1affection event, if she's deployed with Shibata both get some buffs, so it's better than other commander.

Beside both her and Shibata are needed to open a few dungeons.

 

[RandomLurker]

[stuff seemingly about Ranmaru attributed to Ran]

I believe the the names have confused you somehow.

The biggest wish I have for this game is dropping the 30 commander limit. I mean, damn, why is it even there? Why can't I have more units if I have the national power to support them? And yet, there it is, and only for the player, obviously - the AI factions have absolutely no problem going over it, as they'll be sure to inform you in their beggining of turn summary. Dicks.

 

[laclongquan]

Sorry, forgot the 'maru' suffix. Isnt that denoted 'boy'?
