Victorian/ACW mod?

[Heathen Hammer]

The game already has units of British, French and American soldiers of that era, and features corresponding technology: artillery, machine guns, etc. I know that ever since the Empire, CA had done everything possible to make the moddability of its games impossible but maybe there is a way to transport maps of Empire and Napoleon to Shogun?
Since next TW is Rome 2, it would make sense for a Victorian-themed mod to appear in one way or another. I have no modding skills whatsoever, only fanatical faith in TWC's modding community, so maybe some of those ideas would help.

It is hard without modding tools, even I have tried transfer from NTW flag pole + flag to Fall of the samurai, but I gave up because it is hard get it moved to Shogun 2. I think it must be game engine.

Its not possible to use NTW/ETW stuff in shogun 2. Beside that, you can't add any new models in shogun 2, which make big victorian age mods impossible.

On the other hand, you can play Empire total war - The American Civil War mod, which offers trains, gatling guns and more..
So why playing on a japan map, when you can play with trains and machine guns on the american continent?

Coz it has the Kotetsu.

No. We don't even know how to make water passable without the game crashing.
