    Default New DLC unit for Shogun 2

    I posted these elsewhere, but here is a revised list

    New units being considering for DLC



    1 The Yo-mama Nodachi's led by Mr. T---" I pity the fool that points a spear a me!"

    2. The Yari-Larry's--an entire spear unit--all named Larry

    3. The Ashi-geeks---can hack the tech tree before one can spit in their rice bowl.

    4. 2 and 1/2 Samurai---this unit may not be available since the lead member is a total wacko

    5. The Ringling brothers clown car unit----you won't believe how many come piling out a tiny little rickshaw.

    6. Elephant panzer units with auto-loading 88mm cannons---Hey, they were in Med II, why not feudal Japan

    7. The Chuck Norris hero unit--this unit is only one man, but what else can one say--recruit Chuck--game over!

    8. Frickin' sharks with frickin' laser beams on their heads. sample here


    Look for more real soon!

    9. KnowJacki - if you think you can beat this unit, you don't KnowJacki.

    10. OCD Monks - these monks always maintain perfect formation and find it difficult to come in contact with any other unit on the battlefield except to put other units in perfect order as well. Their hated foe is the Ikki-ikki Monks, who the OCD Monks try to wipe off the face of the battlefield.

    Gus Johnson - makes every action in the battle HUGELY exciting, even if he doesn't know who's doing what.

    Sake red necks - they blunder into battle drunk, and usually fighting each other, but if they ever get their act together, watch out!

    Naginatea Warriors - they engage the enemy in a Tea Ceremony where they server really bad tea.

    Superman Samurai-The first flying unit in a TW title! Swoop around the battlefield in brightly colored armor impervious to arrows and bullets. A visit from the Krypton traders give you upgradeable heat vision tech.

    Banana cavalry : they throw banana peels which causes the enemy to slip. One the enemy is floored, they move in, waving giant yellow banana's.
    Geishave: your daimyo will look cleaner than a camel's bottom after the Geishave!
    Metsaké: come on now, Mister Ninja, let's have another drink, you can kill my daimyo next night. Or the night after that. Or let him die of old age, I can't drink all this booze here alone!
    Warrior Monk-ey: gets a bonus against Banana cavalry.

    Yes, they have some serious twisted minds over there at CA.

    Shin00bi: useless unit that gets p0w3nd by all other units.
    Ashi Guru: enemies die of boredom after the Ashi Guru's hours and hours of rambling about the wisdoms hidden in the milking of cows.
    Matlock Monks: runs around for an hour or so doing nothing useful; right before the timer hits the end and when it looks as if you're going to suffer a humiliating defeat, the Matlock Monks suddenly win the battle for you on the court of law map. Each time you use it, you receive a 50.000 $ bill.

    Brilliant Andres, brilliant.

    Ah yes, the Gregoshi puns (TM).
    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Proud

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    Good ones guys---maybe CA should think about hiring us for DLC development. I know I'd pay a couple of bucks just to see the banana cav and the Warrior monk-eys go at it---heh,heh!

    Cheers

    I want Andres' units. One question though - do the Banana Cav tend to bunch up?


    Light Cavalry: how often they waver depends upon the frequency with which you use them.

    Teppo Marxmen - a gun unit composed of the Marx Brothers.

    Ouch!

    Another unit I would gladly pay money for--especially if Groucho gets to sing "Lydia the Tattooed Lady"

    Monks in Black.... Your general disappears for several minutes and then reappears alone, disheavled and on foot in a random place on the map walking in a dazed fashion. A speach then cuts in where he tells the troops who are now totally horrified and confused that he would rather not discuss what just happened.

    Warrior Hunks: no geisha can resist them.
    Naggingata Monks: ok, ok, we'll die already, if that's what it takes to get rid of you.
    Safari Samurai: gets bonuses against exotic units. Provides excellent screenshots, but need micromanagement, else they'll end up in the trees with the Warrior Monk-eys
    Cow Samurai: they throw cows at the enemy.
    Cow Ashigaru: have a slower firing rate than Cow Samurai, because they milk the cows before throwing them.
