Yoshimasa was the son of [[Kiso Yoshiyasu]] and a vassal of [[Takeda Shingen]]. He held Fukushima in the Kiso region of [[Shinano province|Shinano]]. He was married to one of Shingen's daughters but deserted the [[Takeda clan|Takeda]] cause in [[1582]], severing his ties with Katsuyori in favor of [[Oda Nobunaga]]. He held off a Takeda army sent to bring him to submission and provided the [[Oda clan|Oda]] with assistance in their invasion of Kai and Shinano soon afterwards. He was later deprived of his holdings by [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]].
