Description
Although he is only a new Ashigaru and has just started training, Kokkio has a great influence on Takashi's tactics.
He has learned to use the latest version of the dragon clan's arquebuses. During his training, Kokkio sought to use the movement - and distance - of the banners that lined the training area to significant effect. With each twist and turn of the flag in the wind, he could adjust his shots accordingly, becoming much more accurate and decidedly more deadly.
He mentioned his technique to his Gunso, who now incorporated a series of banners on the battlefield to help the firing line get the most out of his weapons and training.
Ryu Prefecture has a surprising amount of firepower at range. A line of arquebuses is sure to deter the opponent from approaching. Kokkio enhances all of their ranged abilities and, with his armor and enough melee reserve to defend himself, can repel melee retaliation. The usual line of black powder rifles is excellent for this, but consider Matsu, the Grey Pilgrim, and even the Dragons themselves!
