monoolho's Hero Unit Mod (for Shogun 2)

-Unit Cap to avoid excessive AI (I don't care if it's OP for the player, practice self-restraing, you muddied rice farmers!);
-Generals not having abilities;
-Possible malfeasance practices from 'more soldiers' heroes not carrying their weapons and killing people with Ki alone;
-Some possible fix to the lack of sounds when heroes fight (the major reason I've abandoned the game >6 years ago).

For a quick check, verify the date on the last update on the right-hand side of the page, (last updated 2016 is the mod as always, anything newer means I've updated it, and might be sleeping it off before updating the description).



(psst, if you're looking for the changelog, read the change notes on the right side of the window, much better than keeping that stuff in the post where it takes a lot of space, gods I love steam, although there's no more privacy)

Welp, hello there, baka gaijin.

After much, much postponing, ado, laziness and sheer lack of will, I therefore release mine own hero mod for Shogun 2.

Yes, it's not much to look at, the cards are all crappily made and it's clearly an amateurish hackjob at modding, but hey, at least someone did it, eh?

Good of you to ask, fine young player. Indeed, what does it do? What does anything do, really? What do WE do? Why ARE we here? To do what? To do what bidding? At whose will? Well, simple questions to ask, simple to answer... but are they easy to answer? Why, I think not. Easy and simple are completely and utterly two different concepts. I should know, I have a degree on this. Yes, I am a man of letters, literally.
But I digress, It is my belief that thy line of questioning referred to what this specific mod does in the game and what purpose it serves/has and why in the seven hells you should waste your time reading this and clicking the subscribe button. I'll tell you that. In a moment.




The moment has come: it adds my hero units to your game.

Simple as that.

Well, I am quite glad you took the time to inquire about this. The mod does add 4 semi-tiers of heroes to the play. What are they? Single-soldier units that survive very impressive odds (I really do not know when they die on meelee conflictuous situations).

Tier 1 - The named heroes. My personal... somewhat, heroes. I named them after whatever came to my mind. They are slightly more powerful than the other heroes. --- You can only recruit one of them at a time (and so do your enemies)

Tier 2 - Ronins - not well dressed heroes
Tier 3 - Samurai - Samurai heroes, usually heavily armored (purely cosmetic)
Tier 4 - Loan sword - a mix, some have flamboyant clothing, others are more modest (again, purely cosmetic)
(You can recruit 3 of each at a time, and so do your enemies)

General - the best hero you can hire, and acts as a general (skills and stuff, I believe) --- You can have 4 at a time.

It was made for shogun 2 original campaign, all factions should be able to recruit them, so it may provide interesting duels during your epic glory conquests and shamefur dispurays.

If, for some reason, they never die, at all, tell me and I'll nerf the stats.
Should you also find any other bugs, please report. But it SHOULD be fully functional.

(soon to come: renewed mono's hero mod for Rome and Attila)

Thank you for choosing monoolho's mods.
