I have revised my Sengoku campaigns, altering the start positions to deprive the Imagawa of secretive Iga. The Mongol campaign has also been improved. The Hojo have left the defence of Kyushu and the west coast of Japan entirely to vassal clans, making it easier for the Mongols to conquer. For players who prefer fighting to diplomacy and strategy.

The file has been uploaded to 3ddownloads- thanks Barocca- but isn't with the other campaigns, hence the new thread and new link:

This is the campaign guide from the ReadMe.

Reducing the effectiveness of missile weapons makes the difference between close range and long range more noticeable. Mongol skirmishers can still be dangerous to units in close formation, since their javelins are thrown almost on top of the enemy, but firing down from heights and extreme ranges is much less potent.

The reduction, as well as the alteration to the invasion thresholds, minimises the player's ability to just wait for the AI to attack and then to destroy the enemy armies from a strong defensive position.
