[Swiss Halberdier]

Thanks swiss i meant upload it on my channel sorry not be your movie maker .
It will take a while as i need to book some holidays at work .
Thanks swiss have a nice weekend.

Thanks to you too!

would it be possible to add the european ships to the naval battle in custom battles?

Hello wolfbane, I answered this question one post above.

what are the string names for the add-on units: i only need the names for the wako units and the naginata monk cav.

Welcome to our forum ShogunT! Here are the Unit_ID's:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

"Inf_Sword_Katana_Ronin"
"Inf_Spear_Yari_Ronin"
"Inf_Sword_Katana_Wako"
"Inf_Missile_Bow_Wako"
"Cav_Spear_Naginata_Warrior_Monk_Cavalry"
"Medium_Ship_Wako_Medium_Bune"

Anyway, I assume that naginata warrior monk cavalry is also not recruitable in the campaign? I tried and couldnt find them

Hello sohei, I looked into the related db tables. They can only be recruited by the clan "Ikko Ikki" at their special temples.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

"Cav_Spear_Naginata_Warrior_Monk_Cavalry" "ikko_ikki"

"SHO_Ikko_Temple_3_Jodo_Shinshu_Fortified_Monastery"
"SHO_Ikko_Temple_4_Jodo_Shinshu_Honganji"

Here some very good news about the unlocking process of vanilla units in the campaign.

If you want I can tell you how to do it with Hex editing. I did so to unlock most of locked units in S2R

I haven't used much hex editing but what I'm trying to do is add the following units to the Uesugi -

"Cav_Spear_Naginata_Warrior_Monk_Cavalry"
"Inf_Heavy_Naginata_Warrior_Monk_Hero_Uesugi"
"Inf_Missile_Matchlock_Warrior_Monks"

So yeah any help would be awesome.

If you dont want to hexedit i can do this for you and if Swiss needs some help I could help him out either.

[Kinjo]

Sure I'll take you up on that offer, I just sent you a pm out of respect for Swiss's mod.

[aeoleron9]

The matchlock monks are missing in every other clan too. Any chance to unlock them for all factions?

[panzerschreck]

I think swiss would be interested too!

[ShogunTaisho101]

If I may make a suggestion Swiss about custom units in terms stats mostly (you probably already have this mind already). Two of these unit suggestions have been posted already and another request is from me.

Peasants -
Majority of their stats are low, special ability is throwing bombs (reference to Kessen 3 Mattock units), the cheapest units to recruit in the game. They should have a farming tool in be used as a weapon.

Xbow Ashigaru -
Recruitment cost, Range, and all other stats should be between/average of a bow and matchlock ashigaru, also has the fire arrows and fire rank special abilities. (Definately would like to see these units make a comeback)

Ashigaru/Light Skirmishers -
Never throw spears, primary weapons should be either a short spear or a katana, moderate in melee defence, low in melee attack, IF a short spear is the weapon then a spear wall special ability, they are slow wearing the lightest armor carrying a wooden shield and a bladed weapon. Mongol Invasion inspired. Visually just either use a light cavalry model (dismounted) or an ashigaru model and add a shield.

Or on a side note you could combine suggestion 1 and 3 visually and statistically.

[Juuu]

hi i have question how i can check if the mod is working? i followed the instructions and did wut i was told. i went to customs but cant seem to find the new units, but i added other mods too. like 24 bit upgrade mode , realm divide mod. do u know if the other mod affected aumsho ability to work? because 24 bit i cant really tell because i already play on medium texture and everything on low. and realm divide i started new campaign but is not far enough for realm divide but which i already know new units dont work on campaigns. thnx

Hello agostinos, i am very interested in this. Have been looking forward to naginata warrior monk hero units.

[rave_nick]

Will loan swordsman also be recruitable?

[Andreius Pretorianus]

Hello Agostinos, yes of course I would be interested because at the moment I don't have time to hex-edit.

Hello Juuu, there is a simple way to look if AUM-SHO works. Just play a single player custom battle and try to use the "pike_wall_formation" with the "Yari Samurai". In vanilla the Yari Samurai can't use this formation.

The matchlock monks are missing in every other clan too. Any chance to unlock them for all factions?

Hello aeoleron, they are unlocked now.

is this playable with DarthMOd?

Hello Andreius, yes please read my first page.

Will loan swordsman also be recruitable?

Hello rave_nick, the answer is in the changelog below.

I will comment these suggestions below soon.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

I also reccomend adding more variety to ashigaru yari. Yaris didnt always have hooks, and ashigaru didnt always wear farmer hats, they also wore bandana things and zunari helmets. You also put sunburst standards in some units. Yari, matchlock, and yumi Samurai should also have the same attack stats, because all Samurai were very proficient with the katana.

It's a civil war among the same nation, what did you expect? There are too many types of units in the game, from a historic perspective.

I like the idea of recruitable female units,as recent archaeology has revealed this was indeed the case,as no less than 3 battlefield excavations DNA tests have shown that on the average out of every 100 bodies found upwards of 35 were women...and keep in mind these were field burials not a siege or otherwise

chevalier, it doesnt always mean that they were soldiers. Geisha arent just assasins...

oh, and swiss halberdier, you should add an ability to all units called onigidi (rice balls). They always carried around, so it could increase morale while reducing movement/fatigue speed (They'll get to chubby if they eat to many!)

Is there anyway to make the matchlock monks recruitable?

Taisho (sorry i cant write the line above the o on my swedish keyboard, but i can write たいしょう instead if it makes up for it? ;D)
Isn't what you are asking for, precisely what the Naginata Samurai is for? A middle between Yari samurai and Katana samurai, not as good as the katana against infantry, and not as good as the Yari against cavalry, bot very good against both in the sense that you can use the same unit for both roles.
A weaker version of Yari Samurai but better against infantry, not as good against cavalry as Yari
Unless you specifically request the Yari Samurai weapon model, rather than a unit with the stats you asked for

This is looking good so far! Some suggestions

Possible to add loan sword ashigaru?
Crossbow ashigaru (if someone can make it)
Dual katana samuri/hero?
Mounted matchlock samuri

ok, here comes another unrealistic proposal. Please refer from throwing stones at me before I get a chance to run away... ^^
Perhaps we could have a unit of Ashigaru using the Model of the current Ashigaru but with the animations and the weapon model (if those are seperate again?) of the Yari Samurai.
The Unit would be the weaker version of the Yari Samurai and better against other infantry, but not as good against cavalry as the Ashigaru with the longer Yari. Somewhere between the current Spear Ashigaru and the "Loansword Ashigaru"....

YOU ARE AWESOME! THANKS!

Hello to all AUM-SHO players,

today I released AUM-SHO 1.5 and here is the changelog.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

AUM-SHO 1.5 - 28.3.11
- unlocked these vanilla units in the campaign

These units below can be recruited in thesingle player custom battle and the campaign.

I tried to unlock several other vanilla units like the "Loan Sword Ashigaru" and "Onna Bushi" too. But it didn't work and I know from my ETW/NTW experience that there is a column in the inaccessible "units_table" which controls the availability. The "Samurai Retainers" can be unlocked in the campaign but they have no costs, upkeep and unit limit. Therefore they would really mess up the recruitment of the CAI.

These units are locked in the "MP Avatar battle mode" at the moment and I have to search how I can make them available there too.

Katana Ronin
Yari Ronin

Both Ronin units are recruitable at the market-building-chain:
"SHO_Crafts_1_Market"
"SHO_Crafts_2_Rice_Exchange"
"SHO_Crafts_3_Merchant_Guild"
"SHO_Crafts_4_Kanabukama"

Katana Wako
Bow Wako

Both Wako units are recruitable at the pirate-building-chain:
"SHO_Region_Specialty_Naval_2_Pirate_Lair"
"SHO_Region_Specialty_Naval_3_Pirate_Fortress"

Naginata Warrior Monk Cavalry
This unit needs the "Yari drill building" and a temple:

"SHO_Buddhist_2_Monastery"
"SHO_Buddhist_3_Temple_Complex"
"SHO_Buddhist_4_Legendary_Temple"

Matchlock Warrior Monks
This unit needs the special "Matchlock maker building" and a temple:

"SHO_Buddhist_2_Monastery"
"SHO_Buddhist_3_Temple_Complex"
"SHO_Buddhist_4_Legendary_Temple"

Medium Bune Wako (only available in the single player custom battle)

I updated the first page with all new information.

Cheers and enjoy AUM-SHO 1.5!
Swiss Halberdier

[soheisohei]

YOU ARE AWESOME! THANKS!

[Radious]

Hello, first thank you for great mod Sir.

I just want to ask something

1. Yari Ronin - i can create it only in last version of market - "SHO_Crafts_4_Kanabukama" Your post say they should be recruitable in all version, since katakubana can be build only once its not very good.
2. Is this normal that Ronin units have only 120 men?
3. Could you make Wako units buildable in some other buildings then just pirate nest? Very rare buildings.

[ToonTotalWar]

Swiss Version 1.5 CTD's in "All In One" mod?? any ideas on problem as I cannot open files to view? thanks

EDIT: found problem, the Unit Variety Mod is causing CTD with your mod?? When I save as a "Mod" the game starts!

[Puerkl8r]

So is there the ability in STW2 to limit the number of a given unit that the player can recruit like in ETW? So that you can only have one of this unit and maybe 4 of that unit for example.

Also, are you saying that the sword ashigaru and Onna Bushi can't be unlocked ever or you just cannot yet? I find myself wanting a unit of Onna Bushi in my army just for uniqueness of the unit.

And how far away from being able to add custom new units to the game are you?
