Unique Unit for Gao Shun

In 1 collection by skm
Unique Units for Generals
19 items
Description
What it does:
Adds a unique unit that only Gao Shun can recruit once he reaches rank 3.
The Dao Formation Destroyers (Xian Zhen Ying, 陷阵营) wield a razor-sharp single-edge sword and a hook shield (gou rang) to enable them to fight enemies armed with Ji and Qiang. They also carry crossbows to soften up the enemy before charging. The unit is famous in Three Kingdoms, where they were regarded as the best troops in the Empire.

Preamble:
This is another mod to add a unique unit to a specific general. I think they look pretty good and are quite functional, without being OP.
This is the seventeenth of what may be more mods that give unique generals unique roster units.
You are welcome to call out your preference for the next general to receive the same treatment!

Compatibility:
Should be compatible with any mods that do not also add a unit to his roster or change his skills. (Might not be WU compatible)
Will work for any start date and regardless of which faction he is in.
Has not been tested with TROM, TUP or other overhaul mods. (MTU compatible)
You do not have to be playing with him in your faction, changes should affect AI as well.
Save game compatible (will need to stay enabled if you recruit his unit though)

Tested to work with:
Should work in any load order....

Limitations:
He has a limit of a maximum of 2 of these units available to him.
(This is to retain some semblance of balance in the game, no?)

Changes:
Added sword/crossbow infantry to his roster, loosely based on Warriors of the Left.
Also taken from a sketch by Ginkgostory on Artstation: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/oOK6Gw
I had never noticed that the background color of Scattering Blows was yellow (earth) now corrected to red (fire). [bugfix]

@young lack sleep. - I don't think so, they are classified as infantry

does this unit still get buff from skills for Shock Calvary as the background color is red?

Most underrated general, thank you for this mod, Gao Shun deserves more shine!

changing to 6 teams is more historically relevant

@dank - Yes, sadly, he was never accorded the honors that were his due....

@skm He's a great general who's also loyal. I like playing Lubu and gotta make sure he's not mistreated the way I read from the book.
