Yuan Shu's Unique Units Reworked

Description
What it does:
Improves both of Yuan Shu's unique units.
Still a very simple mod....
With thanks to Salamarder for assistance and for Chinese translation!

Preamble:
These two units are rather lackluster especially as faction uniques are concerned.
They are considered front-line but have no shields.
And despite the "rapid" in their name, are not so rapid and Warriors of the Left are even slower.

Compatibility:
Should be compatible with any mods that do not edit the same units in the tables.
Other mods that change uniform colors will overwrite the ones in this mod. (no biggie)

Recommended mods:
Historic Units Model Reskin (should be 1st in load order IMO)
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1835352612
Pics above show the units using models from this mod.
His mod has visually equipped (and with animations) the units with Hook Shields (gou rang) which suggests the notion of them having "rapid" enough reflexes to parry arrows ... LOL
But use any visual mod you like!

Changes:
Rapid Tiger Infantry now have:
50% range block chance + more morale + better amour + faster + fatigue resistance + encourage

Warriors of the Left now have:
60% range block chance + faster + fatigue resistance + encourage

Pricing for the units remains unchanged
Description for Rapid Tiger Infantry changed, so that it doesn't mention shields.
Both units are set to a special uniform color. (to match the models from the recommended mod)
See change notes (FWIW: listed just under the mod title pic) for further info.

Comments:
Please leave a comment if you find any bugs or problems or if you happen to enjoy this mod!

Haha, the logic of AI is indeed a problem.:steamfacepalm:

About shield yeah, my bad. Still, they should have 25->30% block chance. Shields is too small. Instead buff their attack rate(current is 24 to 30(or even 40)) and armor piercing(current 20 to 25) and speed (current 38 up to 45)(Rapid tiger sounds like this guys kinda should be fast). So their identity is very clear. I think if yuan shu would have atleast A tier or even S tier units it would make game more interesting playing as Yuan Shu or playing against him and his semi OP units.

@Amadeisan - thanks for the comments. Not sure if you have subscribed or checked out the pics showing the stats, but they illustrate what changes were made to them. Pretty much in line with your comments.

Also they have "rapid tiger" in the name, maybe make them move fast?

In general i think they should be very good unit. Not OP, but close. They available only to Yuan shu and very expensive. Why would anyone pick them, when they are trash(CA i'm looking at you). Plus if they are really good, it would be extra fun. Have full army of them. Before they get close to enemy they can and will probably die, but once they get there, they will kill everyone.

Hi there good mod. But there few things i would like to suggest. 1. Do they have shield or not? If no, then set block chance rate to half(50->25, 60->30). 2. They are supposed to be elite warriors. Set attack rate to 30, if daring to 40. Reason is, generic saber militia have 30. Also i would like you to read their description. TLDR from description is Tigers is elite and strong, militia is kinda in the middle. Also, because they have swords, set armor piercing to 25. My undersanding from Unit description is: Units are elite, have good armor, very good close range, bad against cavarly, and kinda bad against arrows

@呆维安 - you may be right, but unique units should bring something to the table, and Rapid(ly dying) Tiger Infantry that the AI insists should be on the front line are not it....:steamhappy:

Good point for the Unique Unit of Yuan Shu. However, Yuan shu was known as a bad military manager among the warlords of the Late Eastern Han Dynasty. The main force of his army comes from his vassals, whom always have doubts about him. Maybe the weakness of his units reflects the situation of history.:steamthumbsup:

@Salamarder - Ok then, guess I'm making this mod bigger and better! I'll make some changes and post it up....

Anyway on this mod, 50-60% wont make them op. This is a unique unit, with a pretty nasty price. The 60% ranged on the heavy version is still fine. They walk slow as hell, and they are not that good in meele combat. So if you do as you said, and do not touch this mod ever, then I think these are the best numbers.
