You stated your opinion of replacing it, I don't see how it could be considered not a 'solution' but an 'option' and the replies were just as viable as your 'option'.
And for the second, you are by far the most guilty of jumping for any sort of thinking or 'smiley faces'.

That's a rather snide remark, don't you think? Especially since you don't personally know whether I've played TC or not (and I have, several times). By your thinking, only experts such as yourself are qualified to make suggestions. That's a pretty holier-than-thou attitude, and is unbecoming.

You can offer suggestions, but you hardly came with an adequate reasoning for it, other than the samurai not being weak. As I said, for the amount of work that was put into creating the nation and their corrisponding themes, it would be a mistake to throw it all away.
I could care less what you feel is holier than thou. Because of your decisions to not play certain aspects of the game (blood), your opinion may be biased to things you know nothing about. The more time you play TC, you would find it's troops are but a small part of the nation that makes it weak and more specifically it is it's mages and the mounted units.

TC is so weak that it's usually the first nation to disappear in my SP games, often killed by AIs before I can get to them myself. My liking for Ashikaga aside, TC's weakness is why I've replaced them by Ashikaga. Heck, the indies I fight are tougher.

In my SP games, the first one to die is the one I choose, so I have had varied experiences. In all actuallity, my feeling on the 'weakest' nation in SP is Mictlan, because the AI does not steer clear of most normal troops and concentrate on what they are good at, which is blood. So they are at a significant disadvantage.
