I'd swap out the Hattori Bandits with Kisho Ninja. I'd say a sneaky unit that's able to delete generals and scale walls at a fast pace is more useful in the beginning, than a (imo) worse version of Bow Ashigaru. You could also could argue it fits the clan theme better I guess.

I've seen you tuned down some of the other clans starting units, so the Mounted Gunners for the Tokugawa probably won't make it. I'd say that clan deserves a little treat though, given the rough start as a vassal. Flavor wise, you could argue it's maybe not too far fetched, cause they start off with the warhorse ressource in their province!^^

Giving them the mounted gunners at the begining is very much justified. Just look at Takeda getting fire cav and they aren't a vassal + have a decent starting position. Some clans like Hattori deserve something nicer. Giving mounted gunners to Tokugawa and giving Hattori the kisho ninja instead seems way more interesting. Maybe swapping out bow ashigaru for bandits would make it even more unique.

Give Otomo 1 Matchlock Samurai

Why tokuwaga gets ninja and hattori gets the bandit archer ? Hattori is literally the ninja clan. Not a bandit clan...

Give em two of each. Or some extra Ashigaru. That way we might actually see all the Great clans survive the Early game..

Hello


I have been looking for a mod that buffs major factions using this method using the dlc packs. My idea was to always make sure major factions never get killed off by minor factions and also so players get more variety in the early game. As the AI likes to recruit Bow Ashigaru a lot i think it best they are not a starting unit.


So how would my ideal mod look? Very similar to what you did but i would of maybe added at least two additional DLC units to the major factions using the DLC packs. Could you do this for the community? Or tell me how? Thankyou!

I think the Hattori Kisho Ninja unit appropriate. As for the Tokugawa clan they should have the Hero Ninja Hanzo Shadows or Hattori Hanzo.



"Hattori Hanzō or Second Hanzō, nicknamed Oni no Hanzō, was a famous samurai of the Sengoku era, who served the Tokugawa clan as a general, credited with saving the life of Tokugawa Ieyasu and then helping him to become the ruler of united Japan. He is often a subject of various portrayals in modern popular culture" - Wikipedia
