Sengoku Rance:Parameters & Formulae

National stats

 * Cost (コスト) / Nation power (国力) - Cost is the total cost of all your captains combined. Nation power is the sum of nation powers of the territories you control. The total cost cannot exceed your nation power. In other words, you cannot hire a new captain who will put your total cost over the nation power. Also, if you lose nation power so that it drops below your total cost, then you'd need to fire a captain.


 * Satisfaction (満足度) - When Rance achieves various objectives in the game, his satisfaction increases. Satisfaction can be used to trigger various beneficial events. See Sengoku Rance:Satisfaction bonuses for more information on the bonuses.


 * Gold (金) - Gold is the monetary standard of the land. You gain gold from lands under your control. The only thing to spend money on is soldiers: healing or increase max troop size. From an investment perspective, the greater your troop size is, the less healing needed (because enemies die faster).


 * Score (得点) - The base score is 60 points. Every turn you lose one point. For every objective you acheive, you gain a certain number of points. Don't worry about the score on your first time playing through it, you are expected to get a score of 0. It's for replays when you can receive bonus from the previous game. On subsequent playthroughs you can set the game to a higher difficulty, and you'll start off with more points.

Personal stats

 * Name
 * Relationship - has two components:
 * Posture (red-hostile, orange-suspicious, blue-trusting, pink-love)
 * Progress (the smiley faces)
 * HP - Only used in exploration mode.
 * Level / Level Limit - the current level and the maximum level for this character. A character's level limit cannot be changed in game. Character level can be increased by:
 * as a reward option for increasing the relationship with the character.
 * by giving the character a Happiness Pokkuru (see Sengoku Rance:Items).
 * when completing the last level of a dungeon (for the first time for that dungeon), every captain gains a level (even if they were not used in the dungeon)
 * by special events. In particular Ogawa Kentarou has an amazing level up ability in most game routes.
 * Note: Your level is only affected for dungeon/special battles (and greatly reduces enemy damage if yours is higher [Rance/Kentarou can go to 99]), not the army battles.
 * Job - The Captain may have different job type than his fellow troop soldiers. The job of the captain is only important in exploration mode.
