Is this mod compatible with BNW?

doesnt make any sense. the zero makes perfect sense. as does this. why remove it

Thief this Bushido writing came from South China Kingdom of Wu if you go back history the Wu clan always had duels and contests until they end up in Nippon which is considered nowehre.

I love the Dojo, so I don't want to delete this mod, but can you do something to restore the ordinary fighter for Japan? The Zero is gone, but so is the fighter.

I laughed out loud when I saw the red ban mark over the Zero icon. It was like saying "Ok the zero removed, japan enhanced now". Now they are at least better than before.

Japanese Civ Pack? That's just another mod, right?

The Advantage to the Zero is to spam the living hell out of them, Shove them in airports and carriers and rekt shit. A Carrier with 5 zeros that all have Air Targeting will do more damage than a Battleship with Logistics, Range and Targeting 3. It gives you complet air supieority and you can also give just build zeros and upgrade them to jets with the (kinda useless) promotion as long as you have enough aluminum it is much cheaper than normal and it is the only real counter to the B-17.

The Zero got better since it stopped needing oil, but there's no point in fighter units anyway.
anastasia 15 Jan, 2015 @ 6:55pm 
Japan was op as it was. Now it gets stronger pain-in-the-asses and a better barracks. wooo.
LordSlasher 12 Jan, 2015 @ 4:43pm 
rly but a zero resources air unit is just awesome
Tricky Dicky 3 Oct, 2014 @ 3:18pm 
There could be more interesting units for every single one.
Yeyo 1 Oct, 2014 @ 5:17pm 
cool mod love it just that lil error
Yeyo 1 Oct, 2014 @ 5:17pm 
the dojo gets rid of the fighter (reg)
Encolpius  [author] 26 Jul, 2014 @ 1:28pm 
I'm not stopping you from not downloading it and keeping the Zero...
𝕽𝖔𝖝𝖆𝖓𝖓𝖊 20 Jul, 2014 @ 7:40am 
you have never played as Oda on a map with almost no oil :b
if you lack the oil, the zero is incredible, otherwise it is still better than the standard fighter due to the UA
HeavenRaider 17 Jul, 2014 @ 7:54pm 
I like the Zero...
Panzerfanlol 17 Jul, 2014 @ 8:36am 
no this mod is crap!
the zero was a amazing part of jap history....
Free Keys! *(DM Me)* 16 Jul, 2014 @ 5:52pm 
Japan is already op!
Encolpius  [author] 6 Jul, 2014 @ 4:16am 
Thanks for the praise, and sorry for the late reply. I am not saying the Zero was bad IRL (although it is in Civ), I'm just saying that there are more thanenough Japanese cultural elements to include in Civ without resorting to WW2 stuff.
Fool 1 Jul, 2014 @ 1:18pm 
the zero was a marvel of engineering in its time, with a 12 to 1 kill ratio. id rather have lost samurai honestly. still a spectacular mod though.
Shirotora Kenshin 26 Apr, 2014 @ 12:51pm 
i sended you a friends request there,my user name is lasttry.
Shirotora Kenshin 26 Apr, 2014 @ 12:39pm 
ok thanks for the willing to help.im now registered and activated on civfanatics.
Encolpius  [author] 26 Apr, 2014 @ 12:05pm 
Sorry, I can't help you with that. I don't even know who Danrell is.
Shirotora Kenshin 26 Apr, 2014 @ 6:45am 
i tried to import one of danrell's models,and successfully.but then i tried to open Danrell's blend file for Blender 3D Software,and export it,and then import THIS model file into Civ,but thats not really works.

do you have experience in that ?
Encolpius  [author] 26 Apr, 2014 @ 4:18am 
I suppose so.
Shirotora Kenshin 25 Apr, 2014 @ 12:27pm 
hi can i ask you for help another time ? when you have time ?
Shirotora Kenshin 23 Apr, 2014 @ 11:57am 
thank you very much !!! the turtle ship works !!! only one problem is left,may i can ask you
another time for your help ?
DanteAdams 10 Apr, 2014 @ 12:55pm 
@blueshark if trust Wikipedia, no, it is Zero, Mistubishi A6M Zero, americans called them "Zeke", full "Ezekiel", only pilots called them Zero.
Chocman 30 Mar, 2014 @ 3:47pm 
I agree whit this mod is an balanced change
blueshark 30 Mar, 2014 @ 9:39am 
well.. the zero is what the americans called it and it shot down a lot of wildcats (thats an american air craft) the japnese had the zero. and if we lost WW2 we would be either speaking german or japanese right now.THE END of this comment story's over!
Praylak 5 Nov, 2013 @ 3:27am 
Man this sounds like just what this civ needed. But I want to be able to build fighters.
X_kot 29 Jul, 2013 @ 9:25pm 
I approve of the revised Dojo - the addition of culture makes it appealing even when not focused on warfare.
Encolpius  [author] 22 Jul, 2013 @ 8:07am 
It's a known bug and one that I will fix after my current project is done (also to do with Japan - my Japanese civ pack is just about to get its 15th clan!) BTW why would you want to build fighters? The AI never uses air units... almost never, anyway.
sonihi 22 Jul, 2013 @ 7:02am 
Why can't I build normal fighters after researching Radar?
wolverine2112 20 Jul, 2013 @ 4:30am 
Im bipolar...so im use to "stereotypes" trust me. I kill people and Im crazy. Stereotypes are bull.
Encolpius  [author] 19 Jul, 2013 @ 1:10pm 
Japanophiles of the world unite - you have nothing to lose but your stereotypes...
wolverine2112 19 Jul, 2013 @ 11:33am 
Hey I got it to work. Just deleted my mods folder and reloaded them all. thanks for the mod. Japan is my favorite civ for some odd reason.
Encolpius  [author] 19 Jul, 2013 @ 9:17am 
Disable steam community and enable it again? I'm not sure tbh,
wolverine2112 18 Jul, 2013 @ 10:53pm 
This never shows up after i subcribe to it. I have other mods and none do this. what am i doing wrong?
Encolpius  [author] 15 Jul, 2013 @ 11:20am 
I've updated it! The Dojo is now +30 XP for land units, +2 culture and replaces the Barracks.
Encolpius  [author] 14 Jul, 2013 @ 4:05am 
Especially seeing as katana swordsmen featured in the same battles as tanegashima (Japanese musketmen) for much of the Sengoku Jidai.
Wyldwayfarer 13 Jul, 2013 @ 3:06pm 
Best mod I've seen in a while.
I know samurai promotions are saved onto the musketman but the samurai were around for hundreds of years, not decades as is reflected in-game. And besides - they look so awsome you never like to upgrade.

@Gun Jocky: I don't like putting both uniques on a single technology though.

I have to agree. Just as a thought, perhaps you could decrease Oda's concentration on warfare - adding culture bonus for Dojo is good idea - or perhaps instead have Japanese Garden or equivalent as UB.
Great mod and I can't wait to try.
Encolpius  [author] 13 Jul, 2013 @ 1:20pm 
If you mean the mod, then no it doesn't (although Naginatajutsuka, and yes, that is the correct term for a naginata user AFAIK, would make a good Pikeman replacement - I might use it for JCP).

@Extermicide: I know almost nothing about mecha films tbh. Just about enough to know that Japan basically invented the Giant Death Robot.
Society 13 Jul, 2013 @ 12:26pm 
Does it have Naginita's?
QQ 13 Jul, 2013 @ 11:15am 
I wasn't serious. But if you ask me, I'll go with Black Knights instead. They are more stylish, in my opinion.
Encolpius  [author] 13 Jul, 2013 @ 10:21am 
uh, I'd rather it wasn't a GDR replacement although that does sound pretty funny. Maybe if 3 uniques were allowed... Gundam maybe?
QQ 13 Jul, 2013 @ 5:00am 
Seems good. And I support the idea of replacing barracks instead. Hey, and GDR unique for japanese sounds fun. Especially if you watched some of their mecha shows.
Encolpius  [author] 13 Jul, 2013 @ 4:24am 
Thanks for the feedback, I can finally type without shouting!

Re: Barracks replacer, now I come to think about it, you're right, having both on a single tech is a bit strange. Thankfully Japan is better in BNW than in GK anyway because Iron is revealed earlier. How about:

-Samurai remains 23 strength
-Dojo is +30 XP and +2 Culture

I'll probably update this mod tomorrow along with new flavours for my Japanese civs.
