Yeah true that's why im trying to edit it, i just finished editing the stats for the special Takeda clan cavalry units, im going to test it out and if it works i'll submit the file here as a new cheat.
If Pwiz decides its ok to put on the website, people will just have to download the file, go to their shogun 2 total war installation folder, then put the file in the data folder and start a new game with the Takeda clan. And then they will have 4 super cavalry units .
I edited these 4 btw:
Takeda Great Guards
Takeda Yari Cavalry
Takeda Katana Cavalry
Takeda Bow Cavalry
I gave them all better armor, more attack damage, more melee defence and higher morale. For the bow cavalry i also increased the accuracy, reload skill and the amount of ammo that they have.

Great file, thanks ! it works like a charm.
Any chance you can modify the unit's upkeep cost too ?
Your welcome, I can mod the upkeep of these units but I'm going to wait untill the database editor is released.
Guys, when I put the unit_stats_land.pack on my Shogun Total War 2 data folder, it crashes. Any ideas why it does that?
Is your game build 3241.0? that's the version I used while creating this mod.
Just post the file and explanation here, its the same thing.
Download link for takeda clan: www.gamefront.com/files/20155393/mymod_unit_stats_land.zip
1. download the file
2. unpack the mymod_unit_stats_land.pack into your Shogun 2 total war installation folder\data folder (for example D:\Shogun 2 Total War\data)
3. Start a new game and play with the takeda clan
When u start to play with the takeda clan and you want to recruit the edited units you need to build warstables and the bow dojo, yari dojo and sword dojo then you can recruit all of them. Those buildings schould be easy to build with the help of the trainer. These buildings require some research but you can use the research option on the trainer.
I recommend you start with the stable for warhorses and then the bow dojo the horsearchers are really strong.
Have fun guys.

nice work :thumbsup max range would be awesome but that would be slight over kill
Can you edit the DB files?
Yup, as long as you know what you are doing. 💛
