East Asian Unique Units Pack

Description
Overview
A small pack that adds 6 Unique Units for eastern Asian civilizations, including 2 for Korea, 2 for Japan and 2 for China.

History
Rich history behind all these units can't be easily written, most of information is in civilopedia entries in-game. A short summary: Hwarangs helped unify Korea, very popular nowadays because of TV Series. Chongtongs played huge role during Imjin War. Yabusame archers are mounted Samurai who defended Japan in 1274. and 1281. Ashigaru Musketmen unified Japan under Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu. Ji Spearmen were the most numerous Chinese combatants during Warring States period and Han dynasty. Changdao is the name of Chinese special 2-handed blade that was in use from Han Dynasty all the way until late Ming dynasty.


Details
This mod adds 6 new unique units for 3 civs - Japan, Korea and China. Units are:

Japan
Ashigaru musketmen - unique Japanese Musketman replacement. Gains +7 Strength when attacking City-States or Free Cities.
Yabusame archer - unique Japanese ranged cavalry unit. Gains Faith from combat victories.

China
Ji Spearman - unique Chinese Spearman replacement. +5 Strength when attacking melee and anti-cavalry units.
Changdao - unique Chinese Man-at-Arms replacement. +5 Combat Strength when fighting near Great Wall improvement.

Korea
Hwarang - unique Korean ranged cavalry unit. Gains free promotion if trained in cities with Seowon, and earns culture from kills.
Chongtong - weaker Korean Bombard replacement. Has +1 Movement and +10 Strength versus Naval units.

Mod is available in Chinese (both traditional and simplified) and Japanese.


Compatibility
Requires GS and RF. Compatible with NFP and LP packs. Units are automatically added to any modded leaders of these civs.
Problems should not be expected. Though, if you have any, make sure to report.


Special thanks
Huge thanks to Phantagonist for Chinese (simplified and traditional) and Japanese translation, and for Changdao Civilopedia entry.
Special thanks to members of Civ VI Modding community for support and ideas, MaybeDaphnee for Hwarang idea, and Deliverator for Chongtong visual effects.

BTW, I missed that the progression-screwing Sohei were from Steel and Thunder, main component, this mod's additions are perfect, it's S&T that needs rework.

Aw, shame... anyone else up for replacing Japanese crossbowmen with... literally anything else?

Hi again :)
Have you considered polishing icons of units? Their resolution is low and it doesn't look well. Anyway great job!
Mikecro  [author] 13 Apr, 2024 @ 4:06pm 
No thats not possible

@Mikecro Thanks for answering! Good luck with your current project, and I'll be there if you eventually make the Men-at-arms mod! :)

No, dont get me wrong, you arent annoying, i just dont feel like making units for now, but sure enough ill make it
Caramel КурскУкраїна 23 Mar, 2024 @ 9:38am 
Okay, just sayin' if you ever get to making a final update, changing crossbowmen and separating sohei will really make Japan feel like a samurai army.

Sorry for being annoying, I really should have learned to mod Civ and did it myself, just don't have the time or strength when bombings intensified (I'm in Odesa).
