Improvements 


Multiplayer: 

1) Multiplayer morale has been changed back to the settings
   as in the original Shogun: Total War release. No longer does
   your army have a morale boost to start with. The multiplayer
   is now more challenging and it is easier to rout the enemy. 

2) Upgrade costs for weapons and armor have increased slightly. 

3) Warrior Monks, Korean Guardsmen, Mongol Light Cavalry, Musketeers
   and Mongol Heavy Cavalry are more expensive in multiplayer to
   balance their abilities. 

4) Reinforcement start points have been reviewed to enhance realism. 

5) It is now possible to play Mongol Vs Mongol and Early Japanese
   Vs Early Japanese games (4 players maximum per race, with up
   to 8 players in total per game). 

6) Minimum multiplayer game time is now 10 minutes. 


General: 

1) Hidden units cannot be seen by attacking units (apart from
   the general's unit). 

2) A series of code fixes have been made to improve stability. 

3) A few minor text improvements have been implemented (Japanese
   only). Please see unzip gold.zip for instruction on how to
   install these changes.
