When a sengoku daimyo died, even the best laid plans for succession often went awry.  Chris and Forest talk about Samurai inheritance and succession issues in the Sengoku period - how it worked, succession order, and inheritance disputes, in the cases of Oda Nobunaga, Mori Motonari, Uesugi Kenshin, and the complexities surrounding Takeda Katsuyori's succession to the head of the Takeda clan.
