I'm sure Clan Shinkage can create a few Samurai Heroes for the mod. Post info here?

Hmmm......may I pick a Mongol Hero?....
http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/idea.gif ....Orda... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif
No idea about the stats really but let's see...
Very loyal.....7?
Acumen....well quite intelligent..perhaps 3 or 4
Dread....maybe 2 or 3, he's not really that mean
Command...this is a wiley, cunning Noyan we are talking about who seems to know his troops well......7 or 8
Piety.....Pagan by nature but with no real religious interest..2 or 3
Virtues....a very gifted strategist who is an expert attacker and a skillful defender
Vices....so he likes a drink..the odd goblet or 4 of wine is good for you. Isn't it? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/dizzy.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[barocca]

i have tried to assign multiple V&V's to heroes - the game will only allow one
so pick your favourite V&V,

one patron (TNG) chose killer3 which translates to murderer for her Hero :-) simply because she's a black hearted meanie

I believe i can assign provinces, will have to experiment with that one http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

[Puzz3D]

Sanada Yukimura (1570 or 67? to May 7, 1615) fought against the Tokugawa at the Battle of Sekigahara and again at the Seige of Osaka Castle.

Loyalty: 10
Acumen: 3
Command: 6
Piety: 0
Dread:5

V&V Fine Leader (+4 morale, +2 loyalty)


1567 - Sanada Yukimura is born the second son of Motô Kihei (Sanada Masayuki) at Koufu, Kai province. He became leader of the Sanada family which allied with Toyotomi Hideyori and fought against Tokugawa Ieyasu. His strategems in Toyotomi's last battles against Tokugawa are famous still, but he nevertheless wound up on the losing side of the war. History does not record what happened to him after Hideyori's defeat and suicide in 1615.

Historical note:

Toyotomi Hideyori, 1593-1615, was the son and designated successor of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the general who first united all of Japan and who had served under Oda Nobunaga.

However, Hideyoshi died in 1598 and his armies lost the Battle of Sekigahara to Tokugawa Ieyasu in 1600, who then seized power. Continuing to view the young Hideyori as a potential threat, Ieyasu attacked Hideyori in the Siege of Osaka in 1614. The attack failed, but Hideyori was induced to sign a truce and dismantle the defenses of his stronghold Osaka Castle.

In 1615, Ieyasu betrayed the truce and attacked again. Hideyori was forced to flee to the mountains, where he committed suicide at the age of 22, putting an end to the Toyotomi clan and paving the way for the 250-year Tokugawa Shogunate.

The Last ride of Sakai Tetsuo

after rescuing a hostage from the Somo, Sakai Tetsuo and his band are ambushed by mounted Yari Ashigaru, The Ashi realise they are outclassed by Tetsuo and his Naginata weilding band and dismount, knowing their spears will give them an advantage against the horsemen...

...a hard thrust spear lanced into his horse's stomach, sending it crashing to the ground.

Tetsuo leapt to his feet in time to be swarmed by a horde of Somo ashigaru, their spear seeking vengeance for the havoc created by their bloodthirsty enemies. Tetsuo lashed out, his naginata a blur in the faint pre-dawn light. Man after man fell, but there were too many and in moments, he was surrounded by spearmen who darted in to strike with their longer weapons. Tetsuo took wound after wound, but despite dropping five foemen and wounding another three he was surely doomed.

Suddenly a spearman was thrown over as Akimoto's horse crashed into the circle of Somo ashigaru. He hacked another down with his sword, shouting for Tetsuo to mount behind him. With the last of his strength, Tetsuo sprang for Akimoto's horse and grabbing his outstretched hand was pulled up. Spurring the horse, Akimoto quickly drew out of range of the foot soldiers while Tetsuo clung on for all he was worth.

They caught up with the rest of the party who had pushed the wagon from the road and ridden to a small rise at the edge of the causeway. Tetsuo slid from the back of Akimoto's horse and fell to the ground. His kimono was covered in blood and was carrying half a dozen wounds. Motuku jumped down and tearing some strips from his kimono bandaged the worst of Tetsuo's wounds.

"I am sorry Tetsuo-san, I cannot stop the bleeding," Motuku said quietly as he realised that his attempts to stem the flow of blood from Tetsuo's battered body were unsuccessful.

"Tetsuo-san, you are bleeding to death. You have some choices to make. Either you ride with us until you collapse, or one of your comrades can help you into the void or you can ride to battle one last time," Hanbo said helpfully, "either way, decide quickly because there are more enemy coming."



Tetsuo watched the approaching samurai. He knew his duty. He had to delay them as long as possible to give the others time to get Prince Heihachiro away.

Perhaps I will get to take my vengeance against Togai in the afterlife, he thought and laughed. Behind him, he saw Motuku had ridden some way after him, a bow in his hand. Returning his gaze to the enemy he stood in his stirrups and shouted his challenge.

"I am Sakai Tetsuo, son of Sakai Yoshiro-no-Ariki I challenge any one of you motherless curs to face me in single combat, wounded as I am. Who dares to face me?"

The Somo samurai slowed their advance. They could see that the man approaching was mortally wounded and after a moment one spurred ahead of the others.

"I am Hirada Ichizo, vassal of Lord Somo Yoriyuki. I dare to face you ronin."

The appellation "ronin" enraged Tetsuo who spurred his horse into a gallop, screaming the Arai battle cry: "Ogame-saammaaa"

Dragging hard on his reins he swerved his horse to the left and swung a vicious cut that went straight past his opponent's block and sawed through his stomach. He left the man tumbling from his saddle, spilling entrails as he fell. The rest of the Somo samurai, seeing the sudden death of their companion at the hands of the wounded Tetsuo immediately charged.

Guiding his horse with his knees Tetsuo rode between two of the Somo and cut at one, lancing his naginata blade deep into the man's groin. He fell screaming, and Tetsuo shouted his triumph. The second man's slash opened yet another wound on Tetsuo's shoulder but he felt no pain. He was at one with the universe and life was good for the first time in over a year. He ignored the man that had cut him and aimed for another. A two handed sweep hacked into the unfortunate's thigh, nearly severing his leg and sending him reeling from the melee. Tetsuo ducked another slash and again his naginata tasted blood; another Somo samurai dropped his sword and slid forward onto his horse's neck, his chest streaming blood from a deep slash.

A blade nicked his arm, and he laughed at the Somo "Is that the best you can do?"

Spurring towards the foe, Tetsuo felt cold, and realised that he was near death. The moment that he had trained for as a samurai his entire life. "Merciful Buddha, Grant me a few moments more", he cried as he swept his naginata around for another strike.
Two Somo remained mounted and attacking him. They pressed forward, not without some courage in the face of the apparent madman who was attacking them. Tetsuo's naginata darted forward past the guard of one and sliced a line of red across the man's shoulder. Even as he shouted in triumph once more, the remaining Somo samurai plunged his sword into Tetsuo's chest. His naginata fell from his hands and he fought back against the blackness that was engulfing him.

Slowly, he slid forward then fell to the ground. He lay on his back and looked at the sky. The first rays of sunlight broke over the eastern hills...

Testsuo's last ride... (http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Underworld/1701/fiction_tetsuos_ride.htm)

i want to give everyone the chance to participate in the mod,
:-)

[barocca]

a couple of minor points to all,

i can only assign one vice or virtue per character - we have tried just about everything we can think of and the game wont let us assign more,

also we cant assign a specific unit type :-(

your best bet is to know when your hero is about to make an appearance and build only the unit type you want him/her to be
:-)

[Orda Khan]

Just a thought Barocca....Doesn't the AI assign 'special' characters to the best units? Like Boyars for the Russian Princes, MHC for Golden Horde. Would it work out the same for heroes do you think?

I wouldn't fancy a peasant much http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

......Orda

[barocca]

yes, the AI can do that,
it's a setting in the build prod file - which units can be generals,
so i can narrow the list down a bit,
no worries - no Ashigaru Heroes,,,

Chernobyl translates to Cherunobuiri in Japanese,

and that IS all you really need for a Hero's name,
of course you could choose a family name as well,

attention barocca
recently i was on the internet and talking with a japanese person who was surprised that i had a japanese nick. as it turns out, the nick i made up is a genuine japanese name. what&#39;s more, it means exactly what i had intended it to mean. what a stroke of luck...no?
at any rate, if it&#39;s not too late, i edited the hero i posted. the edited version is the 4th post down on page 3 of this topic. if it&#39;s too late and you have allready put it in the mod, no biggie. thank you.

[barocca]

Hi Guy&#39;s

just to let you know the latest,
i have an update pack for the beta almost ready, includes lots of little fixes and a few new clans,
it also has all the heroes to this point (i HOPE)
i went back and double checked and it looks like i missed a couple for the first edition of the mod,

anyway there are still plenty more things to make before i consider the mod finished,
the update pack will be online as soon as i can upload it,

More heroes for the mod are always welcome

i can try it in the mod and see if it behaves

Description: "A low-ranking lord thought to have come from Sagami, he has since been found throughout Japan, wherever the fighting was. While not part of any noble family, he has become well known none the less. His rages in and out of battle are testament to his fury, and perhaps credence for the darker deeds hes rumored to have done."

-Theres one, just combined RL name and nick on here. Question to anyone who knows Japanese, is Muchitsujo just a general meaning of Chaos? Don&#39;t want to use that, and find out it means only chaos in the workplace or something.

Also, is there a limit to how many of these we should/can submit? Because I could toss out some balanced ones. Oh and great mod so far, lots of fun.

His dislike of touching people makes him less suited for the battlefield, so he prefers outmaneuvering his enemies above outfighting them. He does make a very capable administrator.

Preferred unit (if possible): samurai archer

Vices and virtues
Most Loyal
Man of Honour

He places much importance on loyalty and honour, and will not support a clan which doesn&#39;t. IIRC that would make him a supporter of the Uesugi clan.

[barocca]

Hi,

still accepting hero&#39;s?? YES
the mod is not finished and a new util to make adding heros has been released (which will definately make my life one hell of a lot easier),

anyway this was my first free day in almost five months and i spent it making some eye candy for the mod,

how long will it take me to be 100% happy with the mod?
- probably never be that happy,
but i hope to gather in all the bits and bobs and get organised over the weekend of may 22/23,
from there a final date is anyones guess - i plan to add in the mongols and [erhpas another faction or two, get the stats working how i want and release that,
THEN i&#39;ll get to work on some more units and more campaigns,
Finally i intend to make/convert shogun models and some maps - expecially i need some castle structures....

most likely looking at 3 or more releases, look at them as expansions
- in the meantime if anyone has played the beta version, and has some comments/ideas check the threads in the dungeon
- ideas, comments, tips - all are welcome

Please keep those hero&#39;s coming
- i just cannot select definate units for them, the game chooses them at random from the list of units that can be generals (ashigaru units wont get hero generals)

cheers,
B.

Please include me too.

[AggonyDuck]

One thing Kansuke, it&#39;s so wrong to have Yamamoto Kansuke as Hojo....so plz make him only to Takeda.. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[Sasaki Kojiro]

I got Yamamato Kansuke in the regular MI campaign http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

[Kansuke]

Hehe,

Yes ideally Takeda, but I like the Hojo flag colour too, lol. My prefered battle colour http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-yes.gif

What are his stats in game Mim? maybe I use those?

[AggonyDuck]

Well he&#39;s four-star in the campaign... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif
And I think some sort of skilled attacker virtue would be nice on him... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-yes.gif
He was also very loyal and was a semi skilled administrator.
He had a partially lame leg though, but that is a minor thingy wingy...

[Puzz3D]

barocca,

I&#39;ve modified my hero to the historical figure from whom I took my name. The only reason my online name in Sanada Yuuki is that Yukimura was already taken. Yukimura means "snow village".

Sanada Yukimura (1570 or 67? to May 7, 1615) fought against the Tokugawa at the Battle of Sekigahara and again at the Seige of Osaka Castle.

Oridinally the family was allied with Takeda, then later Oda and lastly Toyotomi, but could also be considered ronin. The territories they held after the decline of Takeda are not represented in the game as separate provinces.

Loyalty: 10
Acumen: 3
Command: 6
Piety: 0
Dread:5

V&V Fine Leader (+4 morale, +2 loyalty)


1567 - Sanada Yukimura is born the second son of Motô Kihei (Sanada Masayuki) at Koufu, Kai province. He became leader of the Sanada family which allied with Toyotomi Hideyori and fought against Tokugawa Ieyasu. His strategems in Toyotomi&#39;s last battles against Tokugawa are famous still, but he nevertheless wound up on the losing side of the war. History does not record what happened to him after Hideyori&#39;s defeat and suicide in 1615.

Historical note:

Toyotomi Hideyori, 1593-1615, was the son and designated successor of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the general who first united all of Japan and who had served under Oda Nobunaga. Hideyoshi (1536-1598), the homeless son of a peasant, originally had no family name.

However, Hideyoshi died in 1598 and his armies lost the Battle of Sekigahara to Tokugawa Ieyasu in 1600, who then seized power. Continuing to view the young Hideyori as a potential threat, Ieyasu attacked Hideyori in the Siege of Osaka in 1614. The attack failed, but Hideyori was induced to sign a truce and dismantle the defenses of his stronghold Osaka Castle.

In 1615, Ieyasu betrayed the truce and attacked again. Hideyori was forced to flee to the mountains, where he committed suicide at the age of 22, putting an end to the Toyotomi clan and paving the way for the 250-year Tokugawa Shogunate.

[Xiahou Liao]

Hey do you still need Heroes? If so I&#39;ll help you with one :p

BTW, my Gamespy name is Yukimura Sanada....
