Reworked Tech Tree by ysbnoakashiro

This mod is a rework of all the vanilla focus trees. In order to use the Ikko Ikki and the Otomo focus trees you will need the respective DLCs.

Tired of a focus tree that lets you use the matchlocks only in the latest stages of the campaign?
Do you wish that Neo Confucianism and Scholarship were linked so you could just beeline the last religious tech?
And what about the need to study Calligraphy to issue the Sword Hunt? Doesn’t it seem a bit unnecessary?

In this mod I reworked the main focus tree to speed up the research of matchlocks along with some improvements in the Way of Chi tree. This mod is trying to be as vanilla as possible, so no edits/new techs have been implemented other than tweaking the focus trees’ links.

You can check the differences between the old and the new focus trees in the screenshots above, if you still wish to read the full list of changes here it is:

For Everyone and the Otomo:

Bushido

• Linked Attack by fire to Strategy of Defence
• Linked Gunpowder Mastery to Heaven and Earth

Way of Chi

• Linked Scholarship to Neo Confucianism
• Linked Noh to Tea Ceremony
• Linked Sword Hunt to Tax Reform
• Removed link between Zen and Noh
• Removed link between Calligraphy and Sword Hunt
• Ninjutsu Mastery takes now 10 turns to research (tech only)

For Ikko Ikki:

Bushido

• Linked Attack by fire to Strategy of Defence
• Linked Gunpowder Mastery to Heaven and Earth

Way of Chi

• Linked Sword Hunt to Tax Reform
• Removed link between Calligraphy and Sword Hunt
• Ninjutsu Mastery takes now 10 turns to research (tech only)

-This mod is compatible with every mod who doesn’t edit the tech trees. When used with other tech trees mods, it may not be working properly.
-This mod is fully compatible with my 46 clans mods, so feel free to use them together!

Enjoy!
