Does it for in mid-capaign? Or do I need to start a new game?

Is there a chance you could lower the rate of fire? It's like a medieval machine gun.

I'm thinking of creating a tripple garrison mod to work alongside this. The idea of a castle is you can hold a province with a small number of men, CA completely missing the point as always.

Make castles great again!

Nice mod, works well with others. This mod makes castles believably difficult to assault. Add a double-garrison mod and sieges become a very different thing entirely. I took a look "under the hood." It might take some fiddling to disallow fire arrows until they are researched, but I'll see what I can do in my copious spare time. Thanks for the mod!

Everythings cool, towers are finally useful but the flaw of this mod is that towers don't shoot at all when it is raining :D

This does not work for Master of Strategy Mod everyone

what a fuck meaning foots?????????????????????????????

Could you make one that is reversed of this, please? A weaker tower for when I want to raid with small numbers?

I like to use the pawn strat, using 1 or 2 ashigaru as bait to just die in a hale of arrows witht he enemy.

Don't think you can directly, but more or less you can calculate the difference between how many men your army killed and how many in their army died. It should be that number unless they friendly fired themself a bunch
KillWonder 3 Feb, 2017 @ 2:41pm 
How can you see how many kills your tower got?
The Mall of America  [author] 29 Aug, 2016 @ 7:03pm 
Glad you're enjoying!

Suddenly, forts seem a bit intimidating again, thanks.
GAMER01 5 Apr, 2016 @ 12:15am 
will do,I play FOTS all the time,I use your other mods as well and they play nicely with every other mod I have going :)
The Mall of America  [author] 4 Apr, 2016 @ 6:44pm 
Glad you think so! Check out the Fall of the Samurai version of this mod if you play that campaign. The variety of towers makes it a lot more fun =).
GAMER01 3 Apr, 2016 @ 11:21pm 
love it mate. Ive always found the towers to be a bit useless :)...but, this helps :)
The Mall of America  [author] 22 Mar, 2016 @ 7:40am 
Honestly...I never play ROTS (because I don't enjoy it) so I've never bothered to check. If the towers are shooting flaming arrows then it is working, if not, then no.
daratumaGEN 20 Mar, 2016 @ 4:27pm 
Does this happen to be compatible with ROTS?
The Mall of America  [author] 19 Jan, 2016 @ 1:33pm 
Anything that also mods tower attacks is very likely incompatible as the two will have parts that over-write each other's entries in the database.
the unknowable one 19 Jan, 2016 @ 1:34am 
so im using the increased tower rate of fire mod, and it doesnt seem that the fire arrows pop off, only possibly stronger, are the two mods not compatible or is it something else?

dam never thought towers would be this nice job
The Mall of America  [author] 26 Oct, 2015 @ 9:09am 
Thanks, that's what i was going for =). It makes more sense to actually siege them and force them to come out to fight you sometimes if you don't have an overwhelming attacking force
arthoz 26 Oct, 2015 @ 8:43am 
Finally got the Redoubtable achievement. I had rebellion and only one yari ashigaru and hatamoto unit to defend against rebel army while my main army was at the frontline. At first I was only hoping to kill as many of them as possible. Next I found myself desperately trying to recapture the tower and it's the tipping point that allow me to win! You really change the way to play the game, usually against overwhelming enemy I just gave up. Now there's a fighting chance. Also it will make siege weapons much more important against strong towers when attacking. Now a siege is truly a real siege where it is very expensive to the attacker to assault the walls.
MyWorldO 24 Oct, 2015 @ 1:49pm 
Also ya might want to put a warning in the describe about how if you play on even normal but even moreso on small unit sizes this will break the game to the point of you also can't manualy defend a level 2 or above castle and lose as that fire rate plus perma fire arrows will rout the smaller but higher morale samuari super fast as they will lose over half there unit before they even make it to a wall much less climb it then they rout and the much lower morale peasent squad will take 4 or 5 shots then rout as well "a trickle becomes a flood". and beyond that at level 2 the yari garrison as the "commander" will start on the capture point for the castle so you do even really have to issuse orders at all just go make a sandwitch come back a revel in the glory of your heroic victory.
Siodog 24 Oct, 2015 @ 10:05am 
well the starting one is lvl 2
The Mall of America  [author] 24 Oct, 2015 @ 6:46am 
Hmm I can look into it but I haven't noticed any difference in behavior, and indeed this mod doesn't alter the behavior of towers at all.

What level "castle" was in Buzen? Was it a fort, stronghold, fortress, castle, or citadel?
Siodog 24 Oct, 2015 @ 4:38am 
sometimes towers doesnt shoot for whatever the reason "example" on Buzen with otomo the tower doesnt shoot until units start climbing the castle, it shoots very rarely when the troops are aproaching same happens with others castles and turrets
The Mall of America  [author] 20 Oct, 2015 @ 4:44pm 
It doesn't currently affect auto-resolve outcomes, but I've thought about that myself and might implement it eventually. I do the same thing as you and auto-resolve when attacking castles but play many defenses. The thing is that I usually have such an overwhelming chance of winning (else I just siege and make them come out) that the towers wouldn't affect my odds of winning at all. The towers are definitely more powerful but not powerful enough to swing an overwhelming battle.
MyWorldO 20 Oct, 2015 @ 10:14am 
Does the uped tower strength get relfected at the "?army power?" and auto battle results? Because if not this for all be it a great mod is borderline cheating cause i almost never play out castle battles but fight nearly all of my own castle defense battlesso again if the anwser is not this can only work vs me if i let them cap a tower which in my case means little cause the way i defend if they cap then not cause of the dmg it does to me it just a sign the i've already lost .

Still though again great job now get of and go join the total war game making team or maybe koei... you get a job at one or the other i'm sure.
chuck-u 19 Oct, 2015 @ 8:44am 
You should add the option to "turn off" a tower (by making it 100% damaged) before the battle starts. This way if you have a small garisson in a big castle, towers that are in the part of the castle that you are unable to defend and are "turned off" will not be used against the defenders.
david.rowe 16 Oct, 2015 @ 1:31am 
tbh i never really thought abt towers i like this mod it makes it easier or harder depanding on what side u r or how you go abt the towers good job
The Mall of America  [author] 15 Oct, 2015 @ 5:41am 
Thanks guys! Really glad you're enjoying it. I put quite a bit of time into fine tuning the balance. It also makes it so if you LOSE a tower in a defense, it really hurts quite a bit.
Slazen Goketsu 15 Oct, 2015 @ 1:28am 
Love this, makes capping towers have a purpose now
AHAN005 15 Oct, 2015 @ 12:08am 
Genius
You can make a SHOGUN 3
I would buy the
You are making very fine ^^
The Mall of America  [author] 11 Oct, 2015 @ 11:35am 
If you like this and have Fall of the Samurai check out the stronger towers mod I just put out for that (link in the description). That mod is lots more fun because of the variety. And I felt I could make the towers reasonably strong in those cases due to the research and major investment you can make into tower upgrades in that campaign. Gatling gun towers <3.
Simple-i 11 Oct, 2015 @ 11:26am 
cool
