Description:

Do you love the early game challenge of shogun 2 where your enemy fields cowardly peasant Ashigaru who will rout when you flank them? Do you hate it when come mid game, with a few general retainers, skill tree buffs, command stars, and tech tree upgrades. Those Ashigaru will turn into unbreakable super-soldiers that take almost no morale penalty from getting charged in the back by your Yari Cav?

This Mod was made to address the mid to late game issue of Shogun 2, an issue that was an early symptom of CA’s new balance and game design philosophy that they’ve been developing and experimenting with since Empire total war that was fully implemented in Rome 2 and onward. I’m talking ofc about, stat stacking.

What does this mod do?
Simply put, it nerfs all morale buffs in the game that come from: Generals ranks and command stars, Generals and agent skill trees, Tech tree upgrades, Campaign events, special buildings and XP.

This should reduce the effect of stat stacking so you’d get less 24 morale unbreakable yari and bow samurai at turn 40. Making the game more enjoyable to play knowing that while a unit can get really strong late, it can still be routed.
