Finished, for now. No really I'm done with the major things I wanted to edit, there isn't a whole lot left so its ready for its first upload. I'm using MegaUpload for now, I'm aware not everyone likes it and it favors certain countries/regions over others. But its not a huge file so bare with it please ^^;

What all is in it? The files that add starting armies, characters, and family trees to each factions.
Major changes to the building tech tree for every faction, allowing all units for the faction to be produced, and creating some variation between factions.
Varied Daimyo Bodyguard units, unique to each faction.
Greatly altered rebel forces, with a much lower spawn rate but more variety of low and medium tier troops.
Removed Greek portraits and unit cards for generals.
Recruitable Emissaries, Assassins, and Naval ships for all factions.
Minor changes to a few units, including Uesugi Cavalry Archers, Takeda Naginata Cavalry, and Oda Elite Yari Cavalry.
A huge increase of historic names available to each faction, including male, female, and surnames, and unique names for famous generals.
Hidden Traits and Epithets allowing certain famous generals to pass their name down to their children.
Minor editing on various text files, allowing names of characters and cities to be properly displayed.
and thats all for version 1, work is still ongoing so expect to see a version 2 or 3 in the future.
This does not include the downloads for the Battles of Asia mod or Campaign Map submod, you can find and download those here in the forums.
Any questions or comments should be addressed here, either in this thread or as a personal note to my (Hayami Kagemusha) account. Feedback and input is encouraged, thanks.
Ohhhh I almost forgot, I should explain how to use the epithets thing as it is not obvious. When you start a new campaign, save your game before you do anything else, then load that save. Once you do that, the names for famous generals like Motoyasu Matsudaira, Hideyoshi Hashiba, and others will appear correctly. Also, when these commanders have children, their names will display incorrectly in the family tree page. By that I mean that Matsudaira's son will be listed with the Imagawa last name instead of Matsudaira. Don't panic, when the child comes of age his name will change to Matsudaira. It all works and has been tested and causes no CTDs or errors during long-run tests (that we know of or could detect).
