- Added a quest to return to your lord after freelancer army is defeated
- Added ability to request for promotion from ashigaru to samurai in freelancer with enough renown and relationship
- Added agents/ninja -- crude and limited for now (they only help you open castle walls)
- AI now form basic formations in battle -- not quite like other mods, but should be slightly improved over vanilla
- Added limited seafaring (sea routes are restricted) and new sea battle maps based on relative army sizes
- Added "forts" -- self-contained castles/hideouts with no income but free storage and recruitables

Scripting:

- Samurai troops now cost 33% more in upkeep than Ashigaru
- Reduced loot spam (clothes, weak weapons)

Factions:
- Imahama is renamed to Nagahama whenever Oda take it. Renamed back if Asakura take it. Everyone else keeps whatever name they took it over with
- Lord and Lady appearances are now defined rather than random
- So many more lords have their historical banners
- So many fief reassignments, holy hell
- Asakura clan now get half of the old Oda territory. Good luck, guys
- Daughters and unmarried sisters are now more common. Good luck, guys
- Changed lady names to either historical or period-appropriate names. I realized I did not want my own characters to marry a goddamn Touhou, I wanted them to marry Lady Kaede from Ran. Good luck, guys.
- Added Lord Kakizaki as a vassal of the Nanbu, who controls the only castle in Ezo (Hokkaido)
- Kaga Ikki are now called Ikko Ikki because they now have territories outside of Kaga
- Ikko Ikki monks are recruited from temple fortresses and Kanazawa, Ikko samurai volunteers from castles, and villagers from villages -- they now have the most varied troop tree
- Village recruits are now named after regions rather than clans, but all other troop names remain the same. This is to emphasize their initial loyalty to the land rather than their lord
- Oda and Tokugawa now start as formal allies. RIP everyone
- What was once the Urakami clan is now the Ukita clan. What the hell was I thinking

Geography:
- Much more detailed map, with so many new rivers, lakes, and islands. Less bland, I hope
- Added a few islands that can be reached via sea travel that have imporatant things on them
- Maybe someday I will add Korea near Tsushima (don't count on it)
- Several towns, castles, and villages have been renamed and moved around for better balance
- Some villages and castles are now also named after famous battle sites
- Added Ishiyama Honganji, Jogu-ji, and Nagashima as buddhist temple fortresses (for the Ikko)
- Added a pass to allow the Hojo and Uesugi to touch each other. Takeda should now die more slowly

Bandits:
- Bandit camps now spawn properly (whoops)
- Woku pirates now have guns rather than bows. RIP
- Greatly increased bandit activity in general. RIP
- Some bandit activity is based around the forts (see above). They will stop temporarily if you burn them down or permanently if you conquer them.
- Most of the bandit types have been renamed and re-equipped
- Bandit locations have changed as well

Companions:
- Adjusted personalities of companions for when they become lords
- Renamed certain companions to be less obnoxious about videogame references
- Changed their backgrounds as well. Sorry, sorry
- New option to remove the *consequences* of companion interactions with each other (Camp -> Gekokujo-Specific Options -> Disable ). They still bicker and whine to you about it, however.
- Changed the name and backstory of some pretenders
- The faction name now changes when certain pretenders win (Tokugawa -> Imagawa for example)

Weapons:
- New swords, spears, blunt weapons, knives, bows, and so on (just look at shop inventories!)
- There are now 6 tiers of bows and 5 tiers of guns
- Gunshot sound variety and improved gunshot sounds
- Better gunsmoke
- Added an anime sword, because I can
- Added shurikens

Armor:

- Jingasa now come in 3 shapes
- Added egawa trim to high class armors
- Changed the strap of the hara-ate armor to be less conspicuous
- Changed the underclothes of the low class armors to be less ugly
- Added a few new chest armor types (including nanban and yukinoshita) and a looot of new helmets
- Tekko now come in multiple colors and the tiers make more sense
- Jinbaori are now separate from armor and can be combined with anything you want (looks weird on clothes)

Clothing:
- Improved hakama models and improved textures overall
- Added proper kimono sleeves to everything
- More pattern variety to women's clothing
- Added tabi-only footwear for indoor use (the NPCs switch to them automatically)
- New monk and agent headwraps

Graphics:
- Changed launcher pic to one created by Rosslington
- Female player characters now have a more appropriate infantry icon on the world map
- Added 3 new Asian faces
- Modified female armor morphs to be more bulky
- Mostly new male and female hairs
- New arena scene!
- New prison scene!
- New mansion raid scene
- New town scenes with new architectural styles
- New temple scenes and props
- Sashimono are now polearms that you can't wield (add them to any armor!)

- Factions have their own ashigaru and samurai sashimono (officers have heraldic sashimono)
- Loading screens are now minimalist (only one figure rather than three)

Known Bugs
- Heraldic sashimono sometimes do not trigger properly (solid color)
- Certain lords with custom jinbaori do not have indoor clothing (and are thus naked)
- There are still one or two references to medieval europe in the dialogue that were missed
- A couple of the arrow flight meshes are oversized
(These aren't the only known bugs, these are the only known bugs that consistently happen)

I just thought you should know, i made my own private submod for this where i remade the banners to be more historically accurate (the right lord has the right banner etc), if you want to include them in yout mod (or just look), i would be happy to send them. They also look a million times better (no more neon colors and pixelations)

It's not yet approved, but you will find it here:
Moddb.com

Only some of the banners were replaced, but i rearranged the textures so that the worst ones are gone. I also replaced all the menu screens, since i thought the white ones were a bit plain. In my personal version, some of the music is also replaced with tracks from Shogun 2, though for copyright reasons i did not include them, and i suspect that it is much more a matter of taste. Thank you for an awesome mod and keep it up!

Brilliant execution, I am loving this mod

But I want to know why do my skirmishers sometimes enter battle with bows and other times with firearms?

On the one hand the 2.1 Music was sometimes annoying but on the other hand... i kind of miss it ^^"

An Anime Sword... Sound Interessting... i think it would be great to see some "legendery" Weapons... something hard to get maybe with some special feature... i dont know... but special weapons would be nice... even they are not that much historical as well as the anime sword what i see as an special weapon...

Something for Die Hard Fans of Gekokujo ^^

So when it comes to cheats, "Forming An Army"- its only Oda soldiers. Could we possibly change that through files or no?
Like, instead of Oda soldiers, could we switch it to generate Takeda soldiers?
