A structure to train Japanese units like samurai and ashigaru. Can also train the special unit samurai master. However there can be only one master per dojo.

(Cannot upgrade samurai to hatamoto, only barracks have that tech)

I don't see why it wouldn't have that tech. Structures like this, Roman garrisons, etc. are a good step towards rewarding players for holding to a given civilization.

Maybe if we had a few more "oriental" style units...

I like this idea, I'm interesting

But I m starting to worry that there r other Japanese units like the ninja that r not connected to dojo, or may b for the sake of this game ninjas can also b recruited from the dojo ? (after it has been finalised and implemented)

I think any Japanese unit should be at the dojo. Ninja, samurai, ashigaru, daimyo, etc.

Oh nono, no you dont, oh nonono! No you understand!? N-O! Simply no! Just... just no!

Doesn't matter,for the sake of this game history can be manipulated and no one here has the time to fact-check

I do

So anyone want to draw a picture? It would b a wooden structure and have a sliding door

May b ninja could be similar to assassins and made in tcs only (or a stronger version of assassins so it is made in castles)

That gives me an idea, how about ninjas have death touch but don't die, instead they r mercenary that leaves after 2 turns which increases by 1 for a money courier, and only one money courier can use his spell on ninja each turn (so their leaving would never increase more than 3)

I will try to make an image...

Name: Dojo

STATS: (Same JSON from Barracks)

Can Train:
-Yari Ashigauru
(Japanese Rifile Man)
-Tenageshima Ashigaru
(Japanese Polearm Man)
-Daimyo
(Japanese Cavalry)
-Samurai
(Japanese Swordman)
-Hatamoto Samurai
(Elite Japanese Swordman
-Other Japanese Units.

Can Research:
-Japanese Techs

Honestly ashigaru and samurai are enough right now for this to be implemented imo.

When roman garrison was added we only had centurions and legionairres, after all.

You may find some dojo images here if you scroll down a few post.

Here, my own work...

I will post more..

Excellent! Captures the theme perfectly, You really are becoming a great pixel artist mightyguy!

Thanks DoomCarrot. Thanks.

Here are the two...

Choose what you prefer...

Wow all really good but 1 and 3 are most realistic looking I think

I chosse 3, and great job MightyGuy!!

Thank you for using the link provided above for the image.

I would vote for image 3 as it sounds more close to what a dojo is described as.

Thanks a lot to all.

OK.. Image #3 is been chosen.

Anyone can make a JSON?

Or is there something wrong or question about this? Or STATS?

What is a samurai master exactly? I assume just a very powerful samurai?

That was a different topic godofKings posted at the same time as this. It was supposed to be 1 per dojo (which would be hard to do) and gave/received buffs for nearby samurai. At this point, I think the daimyo idea is more historically accurate, easier to implement, and doesn't overlap with the statement that hatamoto *is* a samurai master.

For stats, it's probably best to go with your standard factory stats, same​ as barracks​, archery range, stable....

Yes may b I should delete that post no need for fantasy super human swordsmen who did nothing but train, this is really stupid actually now that I think

Umm... Just realized It is not possible to delete

I like this topic. It's fun when we all work together to build the new units

So is it ready for voting yet? How about it also has Bushido aura in a 5 tile radius around it, giving Japanese units (except may b tanegashima ashigaru) +2 atk and +30% spell resistance

Unlike roman building, this building's aura only affects Japanese units

good idea and how about the aura can also affect tenageshima ashigaru by increasing accuracy rate..

The only things tanegashima misses r horses, and I don't think we need to change that.
