Hattori & Tokugawa Kisho Ninja Fix

Description
With Creative Assembly's last patch for Shogun 2 a lot of units were rebalanced.
This included raising the ammunition capacity of kisho ninja units to 11 and raising their base stats to faction-unit levels.

Unfortunately the faction-specific kisho ninja for the Hattori and Tokugawa were overlooked during this rebalancing, and thus the two factions who were advertised as having superior and cheaper kisho ninja were now left with kisho ninja who could do nothing special and were objectively worse, sind they carried about 5 times less ammo.
This is obviously not working as intended, but unfortunately CA has stopped patching Shogun 2. Therefore I made this mini-mod.

This mod raises the ammo capacity of Hattori and Tokugawa kisho ninja to 11 and raises their base stats by a margin that is in line with other faction units. As is true for other factions (Shimazu katana heroes for example), this stat increase is nominally larger than it would be for example Oda-Yari, to account for small unit sizes. I calculated the expected stat gain mathematically, considering cost and stat bonuses other clan units get to make this change as fair and in-line with the base game as possible.

Is this currently working? It doesn't seem to have changed the ammo capacity for the hattori kisho ninja for me.

I know there are a lot of faction ninja fix mods, but thanks for this anyway! Does it also lower their costs along the usual lines of faction units?

Also, while I'm commenting, have you considered making a mod that removes the bulletproof samurai cap for the date? I'm playing this game again for the first time in years and astonished that no one seems to have made one when they're such a mediocre unit as is even without said cap.

I am sure that Hanzo’s shadows should also have better stats for Hattory. Please tell me if there is a mod for that. Not that ninja hero mod, just a stats rework.

Nice, the unit wasn't worthless but was dumbfounded as to why standard kisho had 11 ammo. Thanks.

it seems to me that the mistake is that all kisho ninja should have ammo sizes of 2, not 11

CA will remove group chats for no good reason, but they won't fix a basic error. Thanks for the fix

Do achievements work with this mod?

Thanks for making the patch, it works just as advertised. A simple fix like this should really just be brought into the standard game.
