Construct Specialty Buildings [Vanilla]

[Vanilla] means this mod is for use with Shogun 2: Total War's Sengoku Jidai campaign.

Have you ever hated that your home province simply sucks for recruiting troops? No blacksmith, no crafts, no morale? Have you ever wanted something to build in your useless provinces other than Markets/Sake Dens? This mod adds those options.

The second tier of speciality buildings are now available as construction options in a province. The newly enabled buildings are available as upgrade options from the Encampment building chain. The additions are detailed as follows:

Encampment --> Barracks --> Ninjutsu School (+exp for ninja units)
Encampment --> Barracks --> Pilgrim Hostel (+morale for units)
Encampment --> Barracks --> Pirate Lair (+exp for ships)
Encampment --> Barracks --> Library (+research)

Encampment --> Proving Grounds --> Horse Breeders (+charge bonus)

Encampment --> Hunting Lodge --> Fletchers (+accuracy)

Encampment --> Jiujitsu Dojo --> Weaponsmith (+attack)

Encampment --> Armoury --> Armoursmith (+defense)

.

WARNING - KNOWN ISSUE: Specialty buildings, when demolished, regress to the lowest tier of their specialty chain, NOT an empty construction slot. Once you convert the Encampment chain building into these specialty buildings, it will not be possible to demolish back to an empty slot.

.

Provincial resources such as gold, silver, wood and stone can not be constructed. The lucrative specialty chains, such as Smuggling Network and Red Seal Company are also excluded.

.

Don't mind the garrison listed in the screenshots. It's from a different mod of mine that I have enabled.

KNOWN ISSUES

- These new construction paths are buried behind the Encampment so they should be out of easy reach of the AI. Still, the AI could build them, and if they do you're stuck with them.

- Specialty buildings, when demolished, regress to the lowest tier of their specialty chain, NOT an empty construction slot.

- You can build multiple specialty buildings eg. Encampment -> Barracks -> Pilgrim Hostel, build a new Encampment, repeat until all building slots full of Pilgrim Hostels. You really have to use "house rules" and not do this.

Note: In my game I have 2x Pilgrim Hostels in Ise Province - one in the speciality slot and one in a construction slot - and can produce Ashigaru with +6 morale. It's kind of unfair, and this is without upgrading to Great Shrines (+5 each). House rules are very important!
