World War II Japanese Invasion
The second world war era is a period I have long wanted turned into a total war game, Shogun presents the opportunity to see the later stages of the Pacific Campaign
What I am proposing is a modification that: Takes total war to 1945, the final stages of the American push for Japan
Replacing all the medieval units with 20th century units of the Pacific theater
Replaces Infantry units with period accurate units, Infantry combat would be not changed drastically as Japanese troops often favoured melee. The major overhaul would be guns, with machine guns being the major change.
Artillery would be overhauled, to be bigger, badder and more devastating.
Naval combat, is kept very much similar with the addition of submarines
Factions would be
Empire of Japan
United States of America
Australia ( and British Commonwealth)
Union of United Soviet Socialist Republics
Chinese Resistance
and possibly for an Alternate history where the Axis are winning the war.
Nazi Germany
Italian Social Republic
The main map, would only require minor edits such as changes of place names to suite their 20th century counterparts if possible given the state of modding shogun
Aircraft combat would be impossible, however campaign map inclusion of bombers could be possible
Let me know if this idea seems worthwhile or want to get started

And may be possible, although short-term goals would have to be realistic and thus very limited.
