Yizhou Shīzi - The Lion-Kissed

In 1 collection by skm
Unique Generals
5 items
Description
What it does:
Will spawn a unique champion general "The Lion-Kissed" within the first few turns, with more events that will follow and give him some nice gifts!
Also adds a unique unit that only he can recruit once he reaches rank 3.
The Paiwan Javelin Guard carry javelins that they can throw at enemies within range or use to brace the line, and a shield to protect them further.

Preamble:
This is another mod to add a unique general to your faction. The artwork is based on that of the workshop mod "Lionheart a new hero" by DracoHoribilis, which has been stated as freeware(!) by him. Very nice mod, but no longer works, sadly. The original mod made changes to ceos and start_pos files, my version does not.
There are changes to his portrait, 3D model and his skill set. I think he looks pretty good and is quite functional, without being OP.
His unique units are indigenous natives from Yizhou (Taiwan) and are from one of the native tribes there; the Paiwan. They are Austronesian and are the forebears of many Pacific Island natives, rather than of Han Chinese descent. This will make more sense once his events fire in game....

Compatibility:
Should be compatible with most mods as there are no changes to ceos nor start_pos.
Will work for any start date and regardless of which faction he is in.
Not compatible with 8P DLC.
Not compatible with any mod that also calls an 8P general (Sima Liang) into the regular game.
Will not work for Nanman factions.
Not save game compatible.

Tested to work with:
Should work in any load order....

Limitations:
He has a limit of a maximum of 2 of his unique units available to him.
His farmers hat will clip into his cape when charging, but the best I could do. (new to me program used)

Changes:
Added javelin unit to his roster, loosely based on Javelin Guards.
Triggers on his Lion Claw skill. (enabled)

Is there any way you can make this compatible with Lvl 30 mod? Thank you for the wonderful mod!

@Ryan - Glad you are enjoying the mods! You don't need talent to make these mods, just perseverance.... You could join one of the TW discords and ask around, someone will help you out.

@Walt - sorry I don't speak Chinese, so am not able to do one. I don't trust google translate to do it properly....

Love your custom general mods, if I had any talent i'd be punching them out myself. If I could give a recommendation... Would love to see a custom Liu scion character who joins in the same manner as the rest, styled in the imperial fashion as a sentinel. A would be Prince far removed from the line, much to the style of Liu Bei. Or if you have any advice on how I could do this myself I'd be all ears :)

@Whaleshark - Welp, you could read the guide and then compare this mod to it and check the differences. Try saving this mod to the games data folder (rename it!) and then make changes as you want. It's a steep learning curve, but stick with it.....

Zades' guide seems to be outdated, I could only get some aspects to work and one of the files he gives just crashes the game sadly

@Whaleshark - try the one on steam guides, it's a good place to start
