Jomon overlooked in the transition to Dom6?

[AfroSquirrel]

I feel like Jomon has some glaring oversights from the change over to Dom6 mechanics.

One that jumped out are that all their famous samurai cavalry use the same default horse mount, resulting in horses that appear armored on the initial sprite only to be revealed as basically unprotected.

The other is the TOTAL lack of Glamor magic, on a nation with summons notorious for their illusions and trickery. Kitsune and tanuki don't even have the chance to random into Glamor magic, when it should be one of their core paths!

Couldn't agree more.

Whats about Bogarus not getting glamour despite having Vanir ancestors and inventing the Trope of setting up fake villages at all? They should at least got some Illusionist in their roster of old treacherous man when Marignon and Ulm got them too. Only Agartha is the honest nation it always was, using science and smart engineering skills to expand to the absurd large cave layer.

And MA Mans and Erius paths are still a bit close to each other, Man could have gone the path of having more air as representing to be more Human than Tuatha and also to smooth the transition to the air force in late age and later getting some navy when the Marignese navy is all around too.

I don't think the Jomonese cavalry are famous, are they? Maybe I'm missing something but they don't look like armoured horses on the main sprite either.

The samurai cav has horses with armor actually. Not a lot of it, but some. And the horse sprite doesn't make them look armored, quite to the contrary honestly. Plus, it did give the hoof attack to them, which they didn't used to have.

I agree that they should have a lot more access to glamour though, although it presumably might be just that they haven't been yet got their turn to be reviewed and properly rebalanced for the changes in Dom6, just getting a quick pass to make it compatible.

its also not "fluffy" as samurai cavalry was just that, basic cavalry. maybe they got some samurai horse archers, but thats not on the scale tien chi for example has anway.

THe glamour on Kitsune and Tanuki is an oversight. I actually thought that they had it already.
