A successful way to convert your clan to Christianity?

[Eat3n]

I seem to always run into trouble when i try this and could use some help. I've got the nanban trading port, built a church, put a monk in my settlement, and had my daiymo convert. I'm playing the Chosokabe and i have all the towns on that island and i'd figured i'd convert for a little bit then spread out the ol' empire. At the moment i've got settlements angry and doing the Christian revolt thing so what am i supposed to do? Am i just supposed to sit and wait for 20 turns and stomp out the rebellions as the come? That kinda seems like a waste of time. Also, i can't build anymore churches because upgrading all my castles to get the new building option would outstrip my food resources and famine is bad. Any advice?

Playing christians is the hardest, Also when you First get your island dont WORRY ABOUT MONEY, YOU MUST get a church in all your lands. delete some other buildings first. then Spam 5 missionrys, and place them all in 1 fort/castle when that land is 80+ christian, move them all t the next one and so on. when you past the 90% mark you can remove the churches and build money or unit buildings.

Okay thanks for the tips!

if you have the otomo dlc , then dont convert ever , other clans will not like you, if you do this religion change and will see you as traitor, ( but again this is war game you will always have enemies, ) but you will waste time and money on conversion, your province most be influence with over 50% before this might be a swapable choise, and could be seen as a good choise
i did it once, and i can not recommend it, you waste so much time to keep law and order and war effort is on stand still.

ps.
special if you have both clans otomo,ikko and play the other clans then you already know how time consuming it is to change back special if your are not rdy for suppresion and convert back time.

but only do this if you want prolong the campaign, in other words require experience player so you dont get rebel armies all over the map,

but in your case its to late, you need right army on every castle to kill all rebel armys incoming

That sounds kinda poopy. The only reason i considered it was because i heard you get benefits like money and guns AND missionaries do a ton of damage with causing rebellions and such that monks just don't do. I love agents so i was kinda sold my the missionary abilities, plus it sounded easier to join than trying to fight the missionaries.

all this is depend on how many province you have and how much the religion is already infect your province's so this is a calculations you need to do. some say do this from start of game then you adapt , try do this then you have 15-20 provinces require experience, enemies is still incomming while you convert can be fatal, but its doable but then you already have the knowledge in how to manage everything so no rebel or issue raise then you do this suppression

but you are already there , so stick to it and learn it, we have all been there and done this.

and special if you dont have cash or agent and for religion building then its a struggle and you will see what i mean about it, it will take several turns to get over this and can infact have so huge impact that you almost dont recover from it ( depend on ai and how many you already are at war with ) and most ppl that read your thread already have concluded you have not count the law and order issue that change doing converting

Well i saved ahead of time before converting so i can always go back, plus i've only done maybe 4-5 turns since converting. Also, i think (off my head) i only have 5 settlements and only 2 had any kind of Christianity, one from the nanban port and another from my Daiymo. But each turn after it spreads to others.

well normal no matter what clan i play i always wipe them out ikko and otomo is dead and gone faster then they says what happend then i come near them...lol, tired of to much converting back, and many s2 player agree on this.

There was a guy on here named Megatron that maintained converting to Christianity = steam roll victory, but I never really could see how.

Like Iceira said, if you can go Christian from the beginning, in an area where there is already Christian influence, it is much more manageable. That is why almost everyone that plays as a Christian daimyo is using either Otomo or Shimazu clan.

Supposedly if you convert earlier and turtle, without expanding too much, you can get the Christian influence rolling so to speak, and then branch out.

The problem I've found trying this approach is that you aren't offered Christianity as a choice till later in the game for most clans. The Christian event doesn't usually happen till around 1560.

So i guess i'll just pass on The Jesus then.

I dunno, i got to a point as otomo where I was taking 1 settlement every 1-2 turns, the conversion to christianity was slow and annoying but I'd have a few ashigaru in them to raise public order, when christianity got over around the 60% mark I could tax the town again

No matter the world, no matter the game, nobody likes christianity.

Maybe just stick to the content at hand, technically your comment would be in violation of forum rules (just saying).

Christianity may control forum guidelines, but not out hearts.
