When I first started, I trained everyone I have (beggars can't be choosers ;w; ) in rotation and backup whenever there were swords in injury or in repair. After I hit Era 4 maps I switched out the tantous and wakis and leveled all the tachis and oodachis I have evenly.

By the time Era 6 got released, all of my tachis/oodachis reached lv90+ from hunting Kogi in 5-3. I gave up 5-3 soon after and set up all of my tantous/wakis for 6-2 in hunting Akashi. They got up to around lv80+ by the time Akashi came. The uchis are the last batch to train now, most of them in lv50-70+ from 4-4 and 5-2 grinding (except Hasebe and Nagasone because their stats are on par/better than some tachis). I'm in no hurry to bring them to lv99 though, so I leave all of them around until new events or new maps to grind.


 * I usually train them based on sword types/map advantages, less on personal liking. I'm neutral with most of them, so I have no problem putting them in the team. (I even had Kakaka as leader for a period of time for faster EXP gain).
 * Most of my map infested with kebiishi before I know how to stop them, so I usually keep the sword level in small range in the group of 12-15 where I can switch 2 groups/swords in rotation.
 * To me, good/high relevant stats are better than more troop slots in a sword (looks at Tsuru in the citadel who lost more troops than others with his 3 slots)
