Kisho Ninja Fix

Description
This mod fixes the stat inconsistency which made regular kisho ninja better than their 'improved' Hattori and Tokugawa counterparts by reverting the poorly implemented change that caused it.

Standard Sengoku kisho ninjas units are now consistent with other variants.

ammo 11 ==> 2
attack 15 ==> 14
charge 22 ==> 20
defense 10 ==> 8

Kisho ninja in the vanilla game cost the same in custom battles as fire bombers despite being better by every metric including unit size. This makes ninja better bombers than the dedicated bomb unit by miles despite being assessed at the same value. This is why they originally had 2 ammo! They are primarily melee units.

Fots, Hattori, Tokugawa and avatar conquest variants still have their old stats and so remained untouched.

I believe this is the cleanest, most elegant and most vanilla consistent solution to this problem. Most other fixes involve distributing this errant buff to other ninja.

I believe there was a patch in May 2023 which may have messed up mods. I downloaded something to get the mod manager working again however when I used this mod the encyclopedia was all messed up... Would be nice to use, seems like a neat little fix.

Really love the idea of this mod to instead of buffing the faction specific ninjas nerf the normal ones back to their original stats. Especially the reduced ammo is a blessing.
I would love if you could also reduce the ammo of Hansos Shadows.
Although it is the Ninja hero unit 11 bombs still seems way too much because like you said Ninjas are primarily melee units.
2 would be fine for the Shadows in my regard but since it’s the hero maybe a bit more like 4 would be ok too.

edztr read what it says. Your suggested change makes fire bombers even more useless than they already are. This mod fixes everything.

to fix this you should buff special Hattori & Tokugawa's not nerfing this, let this be
Hattori ammo from 11 to 14, attack 15 to 17 or 18, charge from 22 to 25 or 26, defense from 10 to 11 or 12, Tokugawa ammo from 11 to 13, attack from 15 to 16, charge from 22 to 24, defense from 10 to 11 instead
