Samurai Warriors: Spirit of Sanada/Story Mode

Samurai Warriors:Sanada Maru's story focjuses entirely on the life of Masayuki Sanada and his exploits in keeping the Sanada clan alive, before transitioning to the likes of Yukimura Sanada and Chacha, going into the Ueda and Osaka campaigns in a lot more battles and details then in previous games. The story is much more narative driven and unlike Samurai Warriors 4 and 4-II, the story is one big campaign focusing on the Sanada, with the other clans often being relegated to side battles. Some battles may also restrict the player to one character.

Chapter 1- Kawanakajima
This chapter covers Shingen's wars against his legendary nemesis and the growth of Masayuki.

Chapter 2- Kanto warfare
This chapter covers Shingen aiming to annihilate the Imagawa, but finds himself at odds wih Ujiyasu.

Chapter 3- Invasion of Mikawa

Chapter 4- Demise of the Takeda

Skirmishes
These battles are small-scale battles where you can collect materials and fight bandits and some seldom seen characters in order to do so. The ones relevant to story progress will be listed here.
