We all knew it wouldn't be long before one of these threads turned up and I can't resist not talking about my own campaign any longer.
Currently 2/3 of the way through a Medium-Medium Uesugi campaign.
It was tough going for a long time at first as I was confined by the Takeda, even propped up the Date with an alliance just so that the Takeda didn't completely overrun them also.
Anyway, once I finally ground out enough victories to remove the Takeda from my borders I got to work securing my provinces. Date were loyal allies, as were the Tokugawa, whilst the Hojo were my loyal protectorates.
A few turns later and I'm made an enemy of the state by the Ashikaga and the entire country is split in two:
Me, Tokugawa, Date, Hojo and Imagawa against the Shimazu, Hattori, Chosokabe, Ashikaga and a handful of smaller clans still knocking around.
Ten turns later and I am betrayed by the scheming Date! They forge alliances with the Tokugawa and then the two join the enemy. The Hojo don't take long to abandon me by declaring war and all in the same turn my four or five most recent conquests revolt!
I'm strong enough to hold on, but the campaign will be so much tougher with not a single friendly clan on the map. I have three major armies hanging around ready for action
