As for now, this mod breaks the gane. I have downloaded this one a few years ago ind it's still working now. Though, it's impossible to turn the mod off, it kinda changes something in the game files. I have turned off the mod in game launcher, unsubscribed the mod in the workshop, reinstalled the game... And the lowered upkeep is still there. Deleting the "samurai_sale.pack" file makes the game crash once you load the campaign or run a new one. Clueless about how to fix this.

Many mods can be "fixed" by swapping their placement around in the load order, and it turns out I ended up finding a fix for that issue by simply placing this mod first on the load order. Unfortunately, this mod seems to not affect Tercos and Blunderbuss Cavalry;I'm not sure if this is due to another mod in my load order, or because the mod author had never included Otomo units (the Otomo DLC is not a requirement after all).

TL;DR Place mod first in your load order, doesn't seem to affect Otomo units (Blunderbuss Cavalry, Tercos (might just be my own mods conflicting with this one though)).

This mod works, but it won't affect all naval vessels (for example, it will reduce the upkeep on Bow Kobaya, but I noticed it didn't affect Trade Ships and was very noticeable on Nanban Trade Ships).

lol its still working tho

Is it working?

not working bruh

thanks man! does what it says on the packaging and was exactly what i was looking for. makes small unit sizes upkeep on par with ultra unit sizes and i prefer smaller unit sizes

mod does nothing

doesnt work

Sound bug, do not bother

This mod DOES lower upkeep, but it lowers it for you AND the AI, even in easy, the AI can field armies of 3000 in early-game.

Only works on Vanilla units. No modded ones.

Hi, just want to ask if this mods also work on units that are added through other mods? I tried it along the Unique factions mod and the new units don't seem to have 5x reduced upkeep

Are you sure this only effects the player? I've spotted when this mod is on the AI are fielding massive stacks of Samurai units at the same speed as me even on easy/medium difficulty.

The poster. Which movie is that from?

I've tried it out before, it doesn't work in single or mulitplayer.

I'm pretty sure this has practically already been done with this mod. I recommend you try it out.

Can you make a mod where there is no upkeep for units whatsoever?

I have not tested this a lot, but in Fall it seems I cant get into a battle with this mod active. Even with no other mods active

Seems like a popular issue with the mod. Sound from the archers have been replaced with gunfire and the unit upkeep remains the same as before rather than being reduced. I'm probably at fault here somewhere but some advice would be appreciated.

I doubt that - I have my Total War in the same directory as you; it may be that you don't have the DLC. I have not tested this without the DLC, therefore I am not certain that it'll work without, but I speculated that it would.

Simple but very very helpful for creating "total" war

i see

I used a variety of small, medium and heavy ships yet all the ones I've used seem to emit sound fine. Sorry that I can be of no help.

What ships did you use? For me its the heavy ships like the Warrior and the Heavy Frigate that don't make sounds. I tried that tutorial and converted to a movie pack and all and still no luck. It's the strangest thing. I mean I can live with it its just annoying is all. 80% of the time im fighting land battles anyway which are unaffected.

I've just tested the cannons in Naval combat with the mod enabled and they appear to work perfectly fine. As to the issue with your version I'm not totally sure, but the only help I can give you is to refer to this article.

It's the cannons in naval combat. They're silent.

In that case, I'm not exactly sure as to the issue you're having with this mod. The only complaints I've had about sounds is the bows sounding like cannons which were fixed through that application. Sorry.

I tried that and it didn't work.

Thanks for telling me. I've already been asked about this bug before. This will happen with most mods that'll edit the game's database.

Download the fix from this link and run it then your game sounds will be fixed:

This mod corrupts the cannon sounds in Naval combat to make them silent (mostly just the heavy ships). I tested this by turning off all my mods and reenabling them one by one until this one caused the bug again. I like your mod but I think modifying the units causes this corruption in the sounds for some reason. Maybe you could have a look under the hood? Thank you :)

best mod ever!

This affects just the player's upkeep.

does this mod affect the players upkeep or both the AI and players upkeep?

Thanks for telling me. That's a pretty common bug. Download the fix from this link and run it then your game sounds will be fixed.

When I play with this mod, there is a bug that the sound of the bow become the sound of guns. It is really noisy!

After playing the game wit the mod - it is awesome and make the game more enjoyable to keep large armys now - thanks alot !!!

Where's the thumbnail from, if I may ask?

This plus a 1 turn tech mod has turned Shogun 2 into a massive army nightmare.

Thanks!!

Make sure you have the mod 'Samurai_Sale' enabled and that you're checking the finance tab on a save that you hadn't used this mod on before. If the problem still persists then feel free to add me.

odd as it looked as my expences were the same as they were befor the mod.

You don't need to start a new save for this mod, although it should work. If you start your save with the mod for the first time and check the finances tab then you can see the amount of upkeep last season as opposed to the current season, where you have the mod enabled.

doesn't seem to work, unless I need to start a new save first.

Aha~ I hope so. Feel free to add me if you have any issues or queries.

Thx for this Modf, will try it , now the compain may become painless. :)

Yes. This mod works with the original version.

Does it working with original version? Not only for Fall Of Samurai?

I've made it so the upkeep price for every unit is five times less as to keep the upkeep mechanic working, while making it less of an issue for early/late game.

If you'd like the upkeep to be even less of an issue then you can download my other mod which makes tax three more times the original rate.
