[Nation Pack] MA Len’en 連縁Project ~輝く神聖な玉座~ Shining Sacred Throne Version 2.0

This is a port and an ongoing rework of the Dominions 5 modpack, MA Len’en 連縁Project ~輝く神聖な玉座~ Shining Sacred Throne.

This modpack features 6 nations in the middle age based on the Len’en Project, a shoot ’em up game series made by Trick Nostalgie.

NEWS:

-5/13/2024: Version 2.0 released in the Steam Workshop. Many updated sprites for the nations of Senri Shrine, Devanagara, and Dragonfly Castle. Quick changes were made to Fumikadoland, Azumaterasu, and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ (I actually can’t say that word, I’ll just use Sh*todo instead) so they could be ready for the new Dominions 6 features (they will be updated and reworked in the future.)

Changes include:

-SENRI:
– Monochrome Cavalry are recruitable cap only sacreds now instead of as summons
– Regime Exterminators, Regime Samurai, and Regime Samurai Archers have been added as recruitable units
– Glaive Enforcers and Enforcer Cavalry have been added as recruitable units
– Altered hoppers and Altered Masters have been removed. They have been replaced with combat spells that
summon different types of horrors.

-DEVANAGARA:
– Lancers, Penguin Doppelsoldners, and Penguin Marines have been added as recruitable units.
– New summonable units have been added: Death’s Butchers, Longwatch Fusliliers, Silver Jaegers,
Blackmane Braves, and Vermillion Musketeers.
– Penguin Pikeneers are no longer armed with crossbows
– Blizzardbuss Penguineers have been removed (Replaced with Penguin Marines)

Dragonfly Castle:
– Pseudosnail Giants and Frog Battlemasters have been added as recruitable sacred units
– Giant Frogs now have the poison spit attack.
– Slug Retainers have the extra lives mechanic from MA Nidavangr
– Shadow Knights have been removed

Nation Special Features:

SENRI:
– Has access to many nation exclusive combat summons, many of which are either horrors or sacred ink type
units.
– Able to create special magic sites that allow for the recruitment of new sacred troops and commanders.
– Some troops and commanders have the ability to teleport across the map.

DEVANAGARA:
– A ranged combat focused nation armed with gunpowder based weapons such as muskets and cannons.
-Other special ranged weaponry exist such as poisoned bows, mortars that release poison gas, flamethrower
type troops, grenades, and more.
– Special "penguin" auxiliary units meant for melee engagements.
– A special improvable defensive unit meant to represent a trench line
– Summonable regiments that fill a specific role.

DRAGONFLY CASTLE:
– Race specific units that excel at one thing, but lack a skill that the other race has.
– These units also have a weaker secondary form that they retreat to so they could survive the first killing
blow.

FUMIKADOLAND:
– Focuses on massing troops and causing lots of unrest.
– Wide variety of command summoned troops.

AZUMATERASU:
– A strange blend of mindless constructs, undead warriors, and human soldiers.
– Many combat spells used for giving defensive auras to many units.

SH*TODO:
– Most starting troops are poorly equipped, but some infantry have magical weapons.
– Strong cavalry summons with great variety.
– Special sites could be built to access better troops.
– Could perform unique diplomacy actions with special summonable commanders (event based interactions
meant for multiplayer games).

Future Updates:

– Fumikadoland, Azumaterasu, and Sh*todo, must still be reworked, and their sprites updated.
– A new nation is being considered.
– Additional sprites for Devanagara and Dragonfly Castle must be updated.
