The Daku Akuma Kachi

The Daku Akuma Kachi were samurai infantry who would march within the lines of their ashigaru, and would charge into enemy lines once the battle began. Through their superior fighting skills and tremendous courage given to them by the Daku Akuma (dark demon), they would proceed to cut their way through the opposing ashigaru, causing them to divide and be swallowed up by the darkness of pursuing ashigaru. They were also known for taunting enemy samurai in battle, increasing their anger and likelihood to make a mistake, later drawing them into direct battle. Their ashigaru could cut them off from support while the Daku Akuma Kachi samurai would finish them off with ease.

This unit is slightly better than a hero, I made them really fast so let me know if it is too op. To compensate the unit is expensive to train and upkeep. It has a bonus against cavalry, since it sports nodachis. I did my best to make it as close as possible to the yoroi in the pic, the actual crest it's kinda close but is not exact. If any of you want to be model makers want to make the actual crest, feel free to use my mod, just give a lil' credit.

I made this mod for myself, it's the first mod I upload, I am not really that concerned with being completely historically accurate, so I had fun making the officer of the unit. Any claims are irrelevant, let me know your opinion as to whether the unit is too op or anything else.

Your welcome to use this mod jus' gimme a lil' credit.

Update 5/29/19: I updated the unit's speed because it was running faster than cavalry and it was ridiculous I like to keep some realism and challenge in battles.

I also increased the cost a tad bit because the unit is very deadly and I felt it needed more balance, heroes are way cheaper than this unit but they can be torn apart by the DAK unit.

I forgot to add the qualities table so AI can prioritize DAK more than Ashigaru units, so I added it, making it more challenging and a must own unit.

If any of you want the unit op and/or for yourself only, it's very easy to edit the tables with Pack File Manager or I can upload an op version of it so it has the initial values on it.

I tried to edit the sashimono off to no avail, I never picked the current sashimono. I set the back on the variant model to blank_back and I also tried by leaving that field just blank all together, and I got the same results. I also tried to edit the equipment theme table and leaving the banner value empty and I also tried it with "none". If any of you know what I'm missing here please let me know.

Updated unit cards not showing up, let me know if it is not fixed.

Update 5/30/19: Fixed the issue where the unit would stay in formation while attacking and only a few in the front would engage, now they should all run to the front line to engage. Let me know if it doesn't work.
