Re: Spearman Samurai
You have definitely improved.
I don't how this balances with the voulgier unit recently added. Maybe give this guy less health and a little more damage for tge same turn cost.
He can only be produced in dojos as well.

Re: Spearman Samurai
I was more thinking a naginata over yari. Maybe add a small area damage to it.

Re: Spearman Samurai
I really don't see the big deal with the spearman samurai we have so many anti mounted units I would try at the post gate house guard.

Re: Spearman Samurai
Hmmm I think that area damage might not be able to happen for this unit how about 2 turns.

Re: Spearman Samurai
Merged.
Also as Yari is very similar to Spear (at least in this usage they are equvalents), I'll quote myself:

Endru1241 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 21, 2021 5:45 pm Spearmen - would not be any kind of soldiers with spears - most of them would probably be just generalised as swordsmen.
No, spearmen would be a name that describes those, that were prepared to damage cavalry as a priority. It may have been even bigger mass of people, but probably barely trained to hold a weapon (point a spear in right direction) and disciplined to stab mounts , even by the price of their life (maybe paid handsomely for a kill to surviving family).
It takes certain dedication and/or extensive discipline (which may have not been used against real soldiers with higher social standing) to lay on the ground in or go through mud, blood and body parts of comrades, risking being trampled just to stab unprotected belly of an animal.

Re: Spearman Samurai ANSWERED
To put it simply the suggestion of Spearman Samurai is just the unit spearman in-game. Just another name.

Re: Spearman Samurai ANSWERED
On the contrary - I'd say spearman samurai is more represented by regular samurai (don't fix yourself on weapon shown in graphics - it's only a representation).
Unit of samurai class warriors using yari doesn't fit to be like spearman - dedicated anti-mounted unit, just like e.g. hoplite doesn't get any anti-mounted bonuses.
So, imho for japanese spearman unit - ashigaru is enough.

Re: Spearman Samurai ANSWERED
From what I know, Japanase weren't used to fighting against cavalry even when they fought the Chinese.
They are more likely to just avoid them and I even saw some case in where even some small contingent of cavalry easily piercing some infantry formation.

Which goes on to represent their anti mounted capability is weak, then no range 2 pike for japanese

Re: Spearman Samurai ANSWERED
the question is that the samurai used the same weapons as the ashigarus, but it was obvious that they had a much higher discipline, armor and training.

Re: Spearman Samurai ANSWERED
Of course, we have a katana and nodachi samurai, I see no problem with putting on a yari, naginata and tate shield, especially since the troops in Asia have a very small number compared to the rest.

Re: Spearman Samurai ANSWERED
How is the number less compared to nords, romans or church (may b slightly church but church has both most units and most expensive units) japan has 1 of the best anti building infantry unit and the most versatile stealth unit, plus the only nation with gun powder unit that is affected by bushido aura so its the cheapest and highest dmg dealing ranged unit, wat else is japanese lacking? i already suggested my version of cheap anti mounted yari ashigaru unit and endru has more or less accepted that version as well, also there is another suggestion of mounted naginata samurai with power range, with this except for siege japanese will b quite versatile

Re: Spearman Samurai ANSWERED
well you have two points here, the truth and that I wanted to have an ashigaru version and another samurai version, ashigarus are a very weak and low class type of troops, having a samurai version would be interesting for the game and that's why I I also suggested the ashigaru yarigodOfKings wrote: ↑Mon May 03, 2021 11:18 pm How is the number less compared to nords, romans or church (may b slightly church but church has both most units and most expensive units) japan has 1 of the best anti building infantry unit and the most versatile stealth unit, plus the only nation with gun powder unit that is affected by bushido aura so its the cheapest and highest dmg dealing ranged unit, wat else is japanese lacking? i already suggested my version of cheap anti mounted yari ashigaru unit and endru has more or less accepted that version as well, also there is another suggestion of mounted naginata samurai with power range, with this except for siege japanese will b quite versatile
