"Vastator Unit Style 1.3". A more unit variety type mod. 1.3 RELEASED!

[=Vastator=]

DESCRIPTION

Vastator Unit Style (VUS) is a visual mod for Sengoku Jidai period (the original Shogun 2) that changes the look of almost every unit in the game!


Principal features of this mod:

• It changes only the look of current units, no new units, no gameplay changes.
• Variation between units is considerably improved. No more units that look the same!
• Variation between soldier of the same unit is also improved, especially ashigaru units.
• Elite units now have a bad-ass look. Fear them!
• Hero (and Saints) units aspect total remade. No more standard samurai units renamed(like in vanilla), but unit with an exclusive aspect with high quality pieces of armor to reflect their status (and also their in game stats)!
• New exclusive warrior monks unit, alongside new Ikko Ikki unit look!
• It's fully compatible with multiplayer (TWCenter version) and many many other mods, such as DarthMod.
