A diverse group of generals recruited by and brought together under General Maxim shortly after his recruitment into the Hashinara Clan. Operating out of Wakigami Castle's general quarters, their primary purpose was originally to reinforce Maxim and assist him in his personal missions. After General Maxim's defeat in the Palace of the Firebird, Maximum Force remained intact under the leadership of Shōemon, but lost much of their prior purpose. Now, they are mobilized largely as a military unit for capturing and holding objectives under direction of the clan Daimyō or another of the Four Cardinal Generals.
