If I remember correctly the samurai ships where like fortresses on hulls, bristling with cannons and such.
Mori:Warrior Monk Bowmen (Elite bowmen, armed with Nagi)
Shimazu:Blade Masters (No Dachi and Kensai mix)
Usegi:Elite Archer (Couldn't think of anything else)
Imagawa:Emmissary Assasins (going along with Assasin traits not sure if a real warrior)
Takeda:Heavy Takeda Calvary (Calvary Charges
Hojo:Garrison Soldiers (for the forts)
Oda:Long Spearmen (Swiss Pikemen like)
Rebeals:Ikko Ikki (Ashigaru Yari with improved attack)
Also for sieges, we could have special samurai gunmen with a palisade and mon. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wink.gif

at the moment i still have to find some leader type persons for Takeda, Uesugi, Hojo and the Mongols for both invasions,

Shimazu, Oda, Imagawa and Mori have enough (or almost enough)

- goal is 20+ Daimyo's, heirs and potential heirs,
and 100+ generals...
any characters of historical note qualify,

i have 2 choices,

first choice is an overwrite mod, replacing the current version of medieval,

second version (preffered) is an expansion mod,

drawbacks to first version include losing all current campaigns, meaning a complete second installed copy of medieval,

drawbacks to second version are the inability to alter the projectile stats file and losing the capability to assign custom portraits.

Second version is preferred, not being able to assign portraits is a minor nuisance,

second version also means uber muskets are impossible,
they are much closer to 1.03 than 1.0, .01 or .02...

Hey barocca,

I was wondering if you have time, could you zip up and send me the unit graphics for the arbalesters, I'm making a mod and I don't have Shogun anymore.

Just thinking that our Administrator might be given something for his hard work http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/pat.gif So if I would make a few models for you, what would you like to see? Preferable infantry and with some concept images/links. Or are the Shogun BIFs suffucient?

After ancient, medieval but still fantasy I'm looking for a new area, abuse me http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif After looking at those Shogun units again, then it's a shame the Medieval units look so bad compared to the Japanese. I almost start to think that my models are not better anymore http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...s/rolleyes.gif

Cheers, Duke John

Well I hope you come to a wise decision.
A total re-install of MTW you say? I think most of us here would be willing to do that.
The final point you make is quite pleasing, Muskies definately need to be closer to 1.03 than they are to 1.0, 1.01 and 1.02.

What I have read about the Hojo indicates that their refusal to submit to Toyotomi Hideyoshi put them in an extremely defensive position. Since their wars were primarily defensive I keep running into family memders but not generals.

I hope this list helps somewhat. I have taken these names directly from the Samurai Archives. Please let me know if I can be of further help.

How do you get a different campaign map without changing the original or Viking one??? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif I'm amazed, Barocca. Good job http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif I'll be awaiting the release of this one, too

Barocca,

Not to get ahead of ourselves, but will there be any new units that you're going to add to the mix. Perhaps a unique unit fo r each faction as mention before?
10-10-2003, 03:41
barocca

for the beta there will be a basic mix of standard units,
for mongols, same same,

but also in the pipeline are expanded campaigns featuring new units and some unique units for each faction,
hopefully we can balance them for online play.

Any new info, if so please tell also when is the mod to come out to fill the void between now and the RTW mod.

Also i would like to ask what the units are to be, the new ones, or is that to be a surprise?
10-12-2003, 03:22
barocca

there will be new units and old units,
the plan is for a standard shogun era campaign, plus modified ones where factions will get unique units with unique abilities,

i think so,
we are not adjusting the projectiles file, no real need to do so, thus this mod can stay alongside the current Medieval game and Vikings expansion,

cannot guarantee that 100% yet,
only have about 800 or so of the generals names input into game, will have to see what happens when i get past 1500 new names...

BTW this mod has been sent for Rough Beta testing to the STW mod Beta Team, lots of glitter and shine still to add,
but we know it's functional - now we just have to get it all refined and shiny :-)

What about the other weapons used by the samurai, like mace, it wasn't used much, but it worked. Also could you create a pavise arbaqiuesr of sorts, for sieges and such?
Also can we have the prisoner thing included, but i could represent heads take?

*** Bump ***

B,

Is it your intention/desire to include the STW tilesets (that match the STW maps) in your mod (in which case the user would have to have a unique 'MTW-specifically-for-STW' type installation. Alternately, or do you intend/wish to have the STW maps representing/converted to MTW tilesets - OR - do you wish to have both MTW and STW tilesets within your mod (far more difficult but, perhaps, possible)?

What's you preference?

10-16-2003, 12:43
barocca

Hi Welly,

this first STW mod will be easiest using the MTW tiles,

a second "skin" mod is planned, reskinning MTW to Shogun,
the reskin would require a "made for Shogun" install of mtw, BUT that plan may yet come to nought, and is not going to be any time soon in any case.

If you think it is fairly easy to blend some of the STW tiles into MTW, then we can provide those tiles with the mod download,
if it is not easy to blend stw tiles into mtw, then the first option (use mtw tiles) is acceptable.
