Firstly in night battles, Tantou are more or less the strongest type of sword due to the stat boost they receive under night conditions. Wakizashi come in second as they also receive a stat boost, but the boost is not as significant as that of the Tantou. In contrast, Tachi and Oodachi (also Yari and Naginata) actually suffer a disadvantage. However, while Tantou maybe strongest at night, their Survival stats are still generally quite low, and since there are Yari in world 6 maps, they may become severely damaged quite quickly. Therefore the recommended way to deal with night battles is to send teams of Tantou, Wakizashi and possibly Uchigatana (Uchigatana aren't affected by any increase or decrease in stats).

The recommended level for Tantou in world 6 would be around lvl40-50, lvl60 for Wakizashi. For reference, I've been using Tantou as low as lvl30+ in map 6-2 and they are usually also able to 1-hit the enemy units. Keep in mind that they may still lose troops more easily in comparison to higher-leveled Tantou though. Additionally, based on my personal experience, map 6-1 tends to have a higher rate of Yari appearance and as such swords may suffer damage more quickly.

Hope this helps :)
