no yari wall???

Hattori and Tokugawa kisho ninja have only 5 ammo, regular ones have 10

Just dived back into the game with a Legendary Takeda campaign, I'm having a blast, fantastic work!

I noticed though that the research speed seems very fast (1 turn for the 1st tech, 2 turns for 2nd-tier tech, etc). Is this WAD? Perhaps I have a mod conflict with the Tech Tree Overhaul mod.

The unit cap seem a bit extreme: do I read well that I would need 7 sword school to field a single unit of katana samurai (7 x 0.15 > 1)?

I love this Mod Thank You, Thank you, Thank you! Assuming two players have the same mod we would be able to play a FC multiplayer match right?

Anyone here wants to play a Field command match, I can start a discord group and organize some tournaments.

Could you tell me where the FCS files are located? I cant find them in the data folder.

love this mod, AI now use a more "realistic" army build and with a lot of varity of units

please come to our lord and savior jesus christ, repent and ask forgiveness to him for your sins and tresspasses, only he saves, watch father spyridon ''the religion of antichrist'' pls

@Huskii Try my FCS tweaks. Should work fine without Expanded Japan + Portugal.

And as always, @Chewie, where you at my man?

@Carton22 I have just the thing for you. https://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3297211985

I havent seen Chewie on since last August, but he did tell me that I can use the FCS brand. In just a few days I am going to be releasing a new mod called something like "Ultimate Field Command." It will have Expanded Japan, FCS, Lenny's FCS Tweaks, and Ashina's extra buildings mod.

Of particular note: Portugal is a fully fleshed out faction with more correct period cannons, mortars. Samurai have been reworked to be more "historical" whole keeping game balance in mind. Samurai bowmen are called Kachi Samurai, and they get a bow with 5 ammo, and then excellent combat stats. The AI uses them well as deadly archers that charge into the fray as 2nd wave shock troops. Likewise, sword cavalry has been removed and replaced with Bow/Sword hybrid cavalry. I find it challenging. When the AI rolls up an army full of Yari Samurai and Kachi Samurai it's intimidating!

does expanded japan work with this mod?

@Chewie If and when you make a Field Command mod for Boshin consider speaking with @C4nn0nF0dd3r_ creator/author of the Skirmish Line overhaul mod: https://sp.zhabite.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=3386899335

In my opinion he has the best idea of what an overhaul mod for FOTS/Boshin should be..

@Huskii <-- Blud is discovering why the spear is the typical and preferred weapon of the battlefield then, and its not just purely just a logistical consideration...

Just fucking with you mate :)

But seriously, Naginata and Sword samurai units in this game should be used as shock units. In support of the larger bulk of ashigaru and yari samurai units. In essence youll figure it out yourself.

What is the purpose of sword/naginata units in this mod when they get outmatched by spear units of the same class? Why recruit katana/naginata samurai when they're beat by yari samurai? Tanegashima gun units appears to also have the wrong range like the Tanegashima heroes have 150 range while a matchlock ashigaru has 200 range.

Awesome mod, battles are ridiculously fun and the pacing is perfect.

Whenever I click on the settlement of Takashima (one of the Takeda starting provinces), my game just crashes

Hi @Chewie! The mod is amazing! I have been playing it since its inception and it is the revitalised vanilla for me! Exactly what I needed! THANK YOU.

I have one suggestion. Would it possible to create the exact copy of the mod, but with music intact? I loved shogun 2 soundtrack and its absence during battles is the only thing which does not work so well for me as the other aspects of your amazing mod.

Best wishes,
Pawlosa :)

Can you re-add rocket units? :c

I've been having a blast with this mod in singleplayer, but have been unable to get battles to work in multiplayer campaign. Has anyone had any luck playing with friends?

Is there any way to bring back the original gunpowder effects I like the sounds but prefer having the lasers as a good visual on how my units shoot

Hello @chewie
u mentioned at the start that BALANCED FOR LEGENDARY DIFFICULTY / SHORT CAMPAIGN

BUT can i play this mod in very hard difficulty and long campaign? or will the mod not work properly?

Thank you for this, this looks great!

Thank you for this mod!

Thanks for the information good luck on developing!

@salad I am very tempted to develop Field Command Boshin but this can't happen until FCS is balanced for multiplayer. I plan on tackling FCS MP for the next few months. This will mainly entail MP unit costs based on an algorithm I developed for Field Command Napoleon. Once this is done, I will move onto the Boshin War.

Do you plan making FOTS mod?

There are quite a few questions in here that remain unanswered. If you submitted a question and are still interested in the mod, please let me know in the comments and I will endeavour to respond! Thanks.

Hi all, I had to take a break from gaming as I was in the process of moving to a new house. Things are settling down so I may have some time in the near future to continue to polish this mod. Thanks for your continued interest in FCS :)

Hey, can you give me the source for the soundtrack for this mod?

Hi! The mod looks really interesting, but i have two questions: i am currently using a mod that changes combat stats so that units fight for longer. Does this mod have longer combats? I read they move slower, but what about combat?
And another thing. I'm using "Stronghold of the samurai" mods, is it compatible with this mod? As i said, it looks really interesting, but i have to know what to disable, and what i can keep. Thank you, in advance for any answer!

I’m really enjoying this mod and have two small suggestions for the muskets that I think could make them even better. First, it would make more sense if only the first few rows (2-3 ranks) of a unit could fire, rather than the whole unit shooting through each other like in Warhammer. Second, a volley fire mode—where the whole unit fires together after reloading, with a synchronized shout—would be incredible for the atmosphere and visuals!

I’m not familiar with modding in this engine, so I’m not sure if these changes are possible, but I wanted to share my thoughts.

Is there a value in pfm to reduce the chance the enemy daiymo will rush into the battle?? i noticed early game if the enemy army doesnt have cavlry units they use generals in stupid ways to act as their cavalry. only really happens when AI attacks

Formations in combat leave alot to be desired, it's like the have grp fighting off. As soon as combat starts units spread out like on Rome1/ Medival 2, blob out and the line is messed up and the enemy do push through units like some of the more modern TWs, attacking your unit from behind doing so and don't take massive casualties somehow. It's pretty annoying and probably needs some tuning. I know BAI is limited on it's flexibility due to how the tables work.

is this mod work fine with Jaki's Unique Factions ?

is there a way to tweak charge speeds? sometimes yari kumi are able to use charge speed bonus to continually chase down cavalry

great mod. matchlocks feel great and the CAI has given me probably my most engaging shogun campaign to date. dynamic unit caps are ideal. nice job especially given the constraints of the base engine

This is awosome mod, mate. Thank you very much for your effort. Can you please make 12tpy submod? Pretty pleaseeeee

I love the matchlock effect. Can I just get the effect instead?

how do you edit the yari ashiguar formation? it was cool that they are cramp and tight always feels like always using a spearwall

Why do i crash on Custom battles

I guess it won't be compatible with the 10th anniversary edition mod?

just a suggestion. maybe the Yari Kumi should be change to Nagae Yari Kumi Short Spears on early game and samurai variant should have Nagae Yari Samurai

After getting the Research in Yari Dojo. Availability of Long Yari Ashigaru ( Jumonji Yari Kumi and Samurai Variant) Should be Available

awesome mod, pretty much exactly what I was looking for battle wise.

why yari stats very high? It almost max value

Aww.That just sucks. Morale I can understand if they want to change it but configuring the speed of the movement and battles is a no no.

For those TW veteran of is used to past faced game and is active in multiplayer in different series, I won't recommend this mod this messed up with your muscle memory.

@Hex: Devour My Siomai That is a feature not a bug.

@Myslenie build more buildings that give monks.

@Kingrey That isnt this mod.

How to increase monks cap?

Is it just me or whenever I am in a battle the units move slow and fight slow it's kinda annoying

Mod's amazing

What's the main menu music? Goes hard.
