Earlier discussion, not many ppl see a Citadel before. I reload a save that i beat with Hojo to take a glimpse at it. Wow, it takes me about 1 day (about 20+ years in games) to get the computer to attack the land i want them to.

For gamer's reference, Hojo cost of building including this one is 7300koku, 6500 with special building (special discount) The Citadel is based from the square shape base castle evolved.

My after-thought is that this Citadel isn't as grand as i thought. I personally like the " Ⅰ " shape castle-size. It is as grand as this Citadel except less towers. The computer tend to shy away/scare of attacking a Citadel (like a ghost city) which i couldn't get them attacking that Citadel. It is well worth it despite of high cost (at least for Hojo). Computer don't scare of numbers of our troops/general, they scare of this.

So, yes.

Hmm I always thought it would be a layout like the Kyoto citadel. Instead it's just a regular castle.

I really hate the "I" shaped castles, I call it Castle Bone. Enemy bows can easily shred my guys to bits because there's so little interior space. The castle architect really screwed up by putting the bow tower flags on the outside of the innermost walls so the enemy can easily take them over, and the gardener screwed up by not cutting down all the trees right next to the castle!!!

lol..All have its own style of Citadel, but no one have unmask it. I search internet and except few modding one. No original Citadel is found (not kyoto).

For me, i never find trouble attacking /defending a " Ⅰ " castle. It surely look beautiful and magnificent. I bet it would be more Grand if upgrade to the highest level. The square one with bridge, i believe it is the killer of all. If it stretchs out extend to near the bridge, it would be very hard to win without taking heavy damage. Yet i haven't seen a computer build a castle or Citadel in any level.
