Total War: SHOGUN 2

Total War: SHOGUN 2

Expanded Japan (97 new regions, 101 new factions, 22 playable factions)

This isn't just new regions...
If you happen to have some preconception, as I did, that this mod is just "random new regions"... no. Play the mod, it is MUCH more than that. In addition to carving up Japan, which is awesome, the modmaker has altered the starting scenarios for clans which completely blew my mind. Some have changed subtly, but some are changed dramatically. I'm still adjusting to them, but the challenge and freshness it brings to Shogun 2 is amazing.

I got a massive kick out of the changes to the Oda starting scenario.

The Takeda start is rough, multiple armies on your border and an impending backstab from Hojo.

The Ikko Ikki opening scenario looks insane (they're now spread around like Hatakeyama).

The only minor complaint I would have is that the "map" overlay - the one you're shown before you explore - does not reflect the new regions that have been added.

But overall this is a fantastic mod that does more than just carve up Japan into smaller chunks. It radically changes Shogun 2 and makes it feel new again.

I played through it and I think realm divide might be broken. Was playing as shimazu and owned all of kyushu plus that western part of honshu and when I took Oki island i was "noted" in fame level.

mine was not broken, but with the more province you do push RD even faster because you own more province's and you might say you need to be a good player to face even more AI.
/ i dont say its a problem, but if i was a new player and dont know game that well i think you could run into more trouble. ( you might want add comment require Original game play first so you know what you are doing, and what has change. ) problem mods just like skyrim can added and user dont know who is doing what. and how Original content was. ( again not real modders issue. ) but he should warn about Realm Divine Bar will change then more Province is added.
game dont couant this in % and Trigger this even faster, maybe im wrong but it dont feel like it.

I do not know why, but my RD meter does not change at all, I have 23 provinces and my RD meter is still at the lowest level

I doubt it. This should run normally unless author said waht dlc is needed. At last you could try it. It will not break your game.
