Trivia

Historical origin

Tadakatsu is based on the real-life Honda Tadakatsu of Japanese history, who had a reputation of being an unbeatable samurai - evading all injury across his many battles. This earned him recognition from influential figures of the time, such as Nobunaga (Oda Nobunaga), Hideyoshi (Toyotomi Hideyoshi), and Shingen (Takeda Shingen).

His Steel specialty in Conquest may reference his service under Ieyasu.
