Ashikaga mod v2.0

[Kristoffer O]

I made it available on Illwinter as well.

Gibson: the spells are available at start. Death-nature, water-nature, fire-nature and earth-astral. They have the old celestial names, but bring other units.

I usually am not that good at this game... the Samurai are a very tough lot!

Does the Daikyu work? I only have a very small number of the Samurai Bowmen, but while they do make a bow's "snap" noise when animating, and seem to "fire" without moving to the enemy, I don't see any arrows flying, and, most importantly, I don't see any enemies dying (whereas, when I send in Samurai Swordsmen, the enemies die a lot!)... so I'm wondering if the weapon modding does really work...

The archers do fire and inflict damage, but there is unfortunately no way to choose a projectile model for a range attack, so the arrows are invisible.
I'll make a patch that changes them back to longbows until it's possible to make modded range weapons function.

OK, now I DO see enemies dying. Still no arrows, though.

The temporary fix has been uploaded.

Unless they are meant to be pretender based spells, are the national summons meant to uncastable by the national mages (excepting a lucky tengu)? I can understand it being a limitation of the modding tools, or even a balance issue (as the summons seem pretty nice), so I'm just curious what the motivating factor was to provide starting spells that the national mages can't easily cast.

What really surprises me is that shuriken has animation and it is also new weapon (I think).
