Awesome work Sir. Do you plan on releasing a version that matches vanilla unit stats? Would be much appreciated.
These units look great! I've liked your mod best of those I've tried and I am certain these units will make it even better.
is "unit pack 3" & "stats mod" savegame compatible ?
awesome![]()

Thanks to Naxzul666.
Enjoy.
i have the german version of the game. i changed steam to english to use the mods . every game ETW, NTW etc. downloaded a bit i guess for the english package. All may games downloaded 20-300 MB.
S2TW wants to download 29,5 GB !!!!! do i have to download 29,5 GB do play english ? Do i have to download 29,5 GB to use a 14 MB radius mod ?
Your mods are so usefull. Makes the game so much better. Im using the other ones and hope i can also use the unit pack without buying a new harddisk !!!

thx . problem solved
Rad, some feedback. The units are a good mix and look great. But I think the costs and upkeep of the new units are incompatible with the vanilla units.
Unlike S2TW, I've actually felt the costs and upkeep in vanilla FotS isn't too bad on balance. I'd prefer traditional units to be less - so as to actually tempt using them in a pinch - but that's about it. With the Unit Pack 3 mod the new units are often not only often better (to the point of far superior), but cheaper to build and in comparison nothing to upkeep. The effect has been to add wonderful units, but also effectively take away many that were already there because they're not worth building.
My suggestions: some of the "lesser" units need to have a lot lesser stats but have their costs and upkeep similiar to the vanilla "lesser" units. The elites need to have similiar costs to the vanilla elites both to build and upkeep. In effect, the mod needs some balancing and fine tuning imo.
Having said the above, it is fantastic that such a mod exists at all! Thankyou and very well done.
Quoting this as it was what I was going to reply with.
On another note, perhas a version WITHOUT the increase in foreign troops? More foreign units just seem to excessive, overshadow Japanese troops and the overall feel of the game (foreign countries getting too involved with their own armies)

Hello Sir,
thank you for the feedback. About the stats and costs - did you used unit pack together with my fots versions of Stats and pkeep mods? Or in complete FotS overhaul? Because then are the costs, upkeeps and unit stats perfectly balanced. Units in Unit Pack 3 are not balanced for vanila game (that is very unbalanced in my opinion and not fun to play), they are balanced for my other mods. So play Unit Pack 3 together with my fotS versions of Stats, Upkeep and Units mod and then let me know.
Foreign troopers are just choice for player and Ai, nobody is forcing anyone to get them. They can be recruited only in drydocks and western ports, you need technology western affairs to get access to them. There is no reason to remove them, they bring variety, which you may or may not use.
Great mod, terrific units. Goes well with your stats mod!
One question though, why doesn't the french lancers carry lances?
Thanks for the reply, you're a good man. One of the great joys of your mods is the compartmentalisation! One can change the things they like to their tastes. It is truly inspired.
But I was commenting on this pack - or compartment if you like - not how this pack does or doesn't relate to others. With complete respect, I'm not a fan of the stats and upkeep mods. So, with your permission, I'll make some cost and upkeep adjustments to the Unit Pack 3 mod. If that's ok.
Sorry, but some question.
Is it possible to edit it by myself to fit it for another language?

No comment on the lack of lances for the French Lancer unit? I tried giving them lances and changed the animation to the same as yari ki and shogunate guard cavalry but the animation got funky.
