A Thank You and a Question about Geishas

[Puzz3D]

The Geisha in Samurai Warlords is like the inquisitor in MTW. The Geisha is trained with the infamous teahouse. Better Geisha are trained with the famous teahouse and the legendary teahouse. Here is a download link for the tech tree provided by Dale which shows the prerequisites for buildings.

Hello,

Thank you for your reply and the tech tree – it’s exceptionally helpful. So geishas can be built too – this mod is perfect.

I’ve built the geisha unit/agent, but can’t assassinate with her (can’t drop her on other units) – I thought this was due to all factions being Orthodox, but then I can still build geishas/inquisitors. Is there something else I should know about using them (i.e. another prerequisite or date or something?)

Many thanks in advance for your help,

Andrew

The Geisha is used to shift a province to orthodox religion. If the orthodox percentage is low to start, the Geisha may initiate and investigation which can result in executions. You cannot directly assassinate with the Geisha as that capability in STW made the unit too powerful.

Incidentally, you may want to eliminate ships from the mod because you can easily outplay the naval AI. Also, I would recommend getting rid of the xbow unit and the kensai. The kensai is especially bad because it's impossible to properly play balance single man units in this combat system.
