Can you have duels with anyone other than your main guy? Granted, I'm guessing my guy is waaaaay too strong to ever get a duel request accepted... but it may be worth it from the headstrong, brute force types! With 99 War, who knows, maybe I could stand up to the badasses like Guan Yu and Xiahou Dun and all that.
Otherwise, least I'll negate damage all the time so I can spearhead or defend stuff.
But yeah, if this is anything like Dynasty Tactics 2 or Empires modes of Warrior games... best thing you can really do is try and stay low key at first. Get officers first off, maybe even serve another lord if you can. Then once you've built up a bit, you steal some land and take out weak guys or strike up alliances and whatnot.
