The Morii are also a great and fun campaign that will see island hoping as you try to get stabilized from everyone hating you, but you will dominate the water. That said, the Hojo are my favorite clan as they have awesome colors, start with a gold mine, and their castles are great to fall back on in times of assult. Shogun: Date or Shiamazu are the easiest, the Date because of their starting position, the Shiamazu because of early access to the jesus and his guns. In Rise (my favorite) the Fujiwara are the easiest to play, great starting economies and positions (kill your sister clan as soon as possible) but the Taira are my favorite clan ever, challenging and regal campaign with lots of castles to fall back on in the case of set backs.
