Description:

Dear TW fans,

WARNING : You need PART 1 & 2 to fully enjoy this submod !

PART 1 is here ==> https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1741404578
PART 2 is here ==> https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=2163845893

Matchlocks units will now fire with all ranks at a slightly longer range than their bow counterparts ! To balance this i lowered the base accuracy of those units.

The idea of this mod is to get closer to the real importance of firearms on the battlefield during this period. The bows still have the advantage in terms of rate of fire, accuracy and tactical versatility (parabolic shooting over units and walls during sieges in particular).

However, from now on you will have a real reward by gaining access to gun technology.
To maximize the effect I recommend you to use checkered style formations like ==>

—–Y—-Y—-Y—-Y—Y—-Y—-Y——
——–M—M—M—M—M—M——–
C—A—A—-A—G—-A—A—-A—-C

Just keep enough space between your Yari units to give a propoer field of fire for the Matchlocks (but not too wide either for obvious reasons). Please share your feedbacks !

Have fun and conquer Japan in style!
