Template:Japanese name Oyamada Nobushige (小山田 信茂, 1545 – April 16,1582) was a Japanese samurai general in the Takeda army under Takeda Shingen, and later under Takeda Katsuyori.[1] He was known as one of the "Twenty-Four Generals of Takeda Shingen". He was also lord of Iwadono Castle, and fought under the Takeda at the battles of Kawanakajima, Mikatagahara, and Nagashino and Temmukuzan.
