Hi, am a new member and not sure if i'm posting in the correct place. after many years away from wargaming, i recently decided to start collecting an army again, and decided on 15mm samurai for mass battles. i have the 'field of glory' rulebook, and also purchased the 'empires of the dragon' supplement. however i can't seem to find any army lists/rules that deal with the kawanakajima/sengoku jidai period. can anybody help me with this?

had thought that myself, but there are no listings in the book for ashigaru(unless i substitute 'followers' for ashigaru) and teppo/arquebus...:/ i always seem to choose the things that need the most thought/work...lol

found a 'clash of empires' army list for this period, but don't have that rule set.....

Your period is right at the very end of this rule set, where are you in the world?

the empire of the dragon supplement has 'late Heian/Muromachi' as its last army list for the japanese....but there are no lists there that include ashigaru/arquebus. unless i am misssing something lol. the last wargame i played was a long time ago and that was games workshop EPIC 40k.

am in England.

These rules and at1500. Your period starts about then. I reckon you would be better using FoG Renaissance rules. They are at probably as popular as the ancient ones and you should be able to pick a copy ip at most shows.
Where in England?

Yes the kawanakajima will be 16th century, so FOG Renaissance (which has a separate forum here). The earlier Onin war would fit in the ancients set but once arquebus come in it's FOGR. It's a popular and effective army in FOGR and has the splendid Hatamoto guards.
