* [[Violation of Common Sense]] - There a few of these. But the most significant one is that {{spoiler|once you conquer some of the Shimazu teritories can leave JAPAN and abandon the war, which of course leads to a bad end.}}

* [[The Virus]]: The curse of the Soul Binder turns people into zombies and they must infect 5 other people before they are allowed to die.

* [[Wake Up Call Boss]]: Arguably, the Tokugawa house. The first two houses (Hara and Ashikaga) are pretty easy, with the Miko Institute slightly more difficult but not unbearable. Tokugawa throws you the games' first curveball during his last stand. He's got two ninjas who can Assassinate you, Tadakatsu can pull off a devastating Commanders Charge on you, and Ieyasu himself has 5 actions plus a very powerful attack and self-buff skill. If you try to attack either of them, you've got Sakakibara Yasumasa to deal with, whose high defense makes killing him a bear. Your best strategy is to patiently bleed him dry by capturing his powerful allies and reducing his troop levels, but that might not occur to you the first time through.

** They are unlikely to attack you first, however--reflected in-story by Tokugawa's pacifist stance. Although he is plenty capable of conquering his weaker neighbors, (Imagawa is a [[Joke Character|weak house]] Tokugawa doesn't invade them out of respect for his fellow youkai).
