Lord Yamada was a pleasant man but he could also nail enemies to the decks of ships and mount heads on posts for pasangs along a road. - (Rebels of Gor, Chapter 13, Sentence #155)

It was not surprising to me that victory was no stranger to his warriors and Ashigaru. Had it not been for the intervention of Priest-Kings or Kurii, or both, I think the remnants of Lord Temmu's land forces would have perished on a beach long ago, rather than appearing, seemingly unaccountably, in the vicinity of Brundisium on continental Gor. Had Lord Temmu not had the mighty, nigh-impregnable holding of the house of Temmu at his disposal I suspected that this war would have been concluded long ago, and not to his advantage. Lord Yamada was a pleasant man but he could also nail enemies to the decks of ships and mount heads on posts for pasangs along a road. He was a persistent and efficient fellow, and one of enterprise and calculation. He was also one of singular will, of unswerving resolve, and vaulting ambition. He understood not only the business of marches and sieges, but the politics of logistics and supply. - (Rebels of Gor)
