Are Oda Long Yari Ashigaru a good investment?

well ... there are 2 building requirements (if I recall): yari yard + armory and they are superior to standard (Oda) yari ashigaru.

They are a good mid Sengoku campaign unit, though they are a yari ashigaru so they are mainly for defensive purposes. I would only suggest that you place them in your main armies as holding forces while samurai, missile, and/or cav be the killing power. Otherwise, if you are trying to just hold the fort/choke point, just keep spamming those oda yari/bow ashigaru. You'll overwhelm your AI opponents through sheer numbers.

putting them in a yari wall is devestating, especially to monks or slow samurai and will destroy there charge and kills many of them but once they are past the tips of the yaris they will take casualties, so it is best to have other units quickly at hand; but yea it is a good unit
