Thanks for the great mod. I have 2 questions

1. Is this mod compatible with below mod?

2. I want to know enemy AI can also product matchlock ships?

Vlad Draculea@_ Probably, yes. 🙁

ty @TR3, also can the AI recruit these units as well?

Vlad Draculea@_ Probably yes. Because, only the navy units on the ship are changing, not the war ships. It's not a guarantee though, of course. 🙂👍

is this compatible with S2TW naval mod?

how about a better archery more deadly archerers Marines of Chosokabean Navy

I understand the difficulty, because it is hard to add siege engine to ships. Could you consider make ships with crew that use rocket and hand mortar? That way it is easier because you are only changing the hand-hold weapon and projectile of the crow members. This way we can have artillery in navy battle in some degree.

@ammerigan2021
Unfortunately not, that's outside my skill level.

Can you put cannons on the Atakabune and the heavy bune just like in history?

You're playing Shogun Total War 1

Also, I have a suggestion on giving the Mori a unique unit that is basically a Heavy Bune, but its gunners use the same guns as the Shimazu heavy gunners and is much more expensive (also unit cap of 4, and benefits from Mori clan bonus of +1 morale and +10 gunners)

I'm not sure if the Japanese actually had cannons on their ships during Imjin war, maybe very few ships did because every time I read about Japan's naval performance in Imjin war it's usually emphasized that their navy's drawback was that they only made heavy usage of matchlocks and preferred boarding the enemy, unlike the Koreans who preferred long range distance and usage of cannons.

@saber - during the Imjin war, Koreans did use canons called chunja-chongtong with records indicating a range of 500m mounted on ships

During the Japanese Korean war, it was said that a lot of the ships also had canons.

You can tell by the videos and descriptions of some units that there were supposed to be more guns in the navies, I think ca dropped the ball.

O Ataka Matchlock Bune
These ships are one of the pinnacles of Sengoku naval technology. Few ships can go into combat against the O Ataka Matchlock Bune and claim victory.

Recruitable from any Lv4 Port once a Lv3 Gunsmith is built in the same province
and once Mastery of the Waves is researched.
Unit Cap Limit of 4.

Gonna us ethose as oda

@MacFuz As Crusader child said, yes it does.

It should be labeled as Matchlock_Navy in your Shogun 2 Mod Manager.

@MacFuz Yes it does

Does the Mod download automatically when I subscribe?

Giving Cannons to ships that do not have cannon slots is doable, but not easy. It needs for editing the models_naval table, which is not directly editable using either the Assembly Kit nor the PFM.

@TheRageQuitter It's easier to make the Sengoku ships have Matchlocks. Not sure if it's possible to add cannons to the ships. Would make it interesting though.

you know whats better than matchlocks? Bigger matchlocks, believe they call those cannons.

@MacFuz Sold to the bidder! Have a few Matchlock ships, and watch your enemies tremble before you!

Unless they have Nanban ships. In which case, you might want to bring a few bow kobayas to burn them alive.

Matchlocks?! Dishonourable!!!!..... I'll take 3000

@宮本 武蔵 Miyamoto Musashi
One is glad to be of service.

Nice mod, I like it so much! Finally I can play some amazing naval battles.
