Hi,guy!AS a Chinese,I really like this mod,and I really really want to play it.But I have a small requestlease don't forget the Chinese handguner.When the AD 15-16th,The Ming army's 40% are handguners.

This kind of handgun looks like this."三眼铳(San yan chong)" is his name,means "three eyes gun" it has two or three gun barrels,very powerful,but only has a range of 20m

And Ming army always have racket launcher,The biggest one is"一窝蜂(yi wo feng,means one nest bee)" there are many pictures(but the explanations have many wrong):

From the end of the AD 16th,Ming army begin to use the more powerful westen weapns:

westen cannon.Chinese name 红夷大炮(hong yi da pao,means red Barbarian cannon),come from England,Ming could copy but quantity

is small:

By the way ,In 1592 and 1597 war,Ming army is main force ,they destroy Japan's land force and half of the navy.At field operations,Japan army can't defeat Ming's cavalry .

Friends,here are three very beautiful pictures.The author's name is 蒋振威(Jiang zhenwei),a citizen of PRC)
