Zen Mod features new unique units for all Clans.
Zen Mod features new unit rosters, listed below is an example.
All of the unit rosters have been re-balanced to remove the redundant units and to make each Clan feel unique. Unit cards are color coded to make it easier to tell what unit type's you have availiable in battle. While anti cavalry unit bonuses have been decreased. Archers effectivness has been reduced slightly while Matchlock units effectivness has been increased. Garrison sizes have been increased to stop Clans getting destroyed in the first few turns. This also fixes the bug where the AI would spam Bow Ashigaru units. Tweaks to the AI have been made so that the AI produces less ashigaru and more high tier Samurai. All units, ships, cavalry, infantry etc now have correct Japanese names to add to the depth and realism of the mod. The unit size of ashigaru units has been increased due to the fact that they were cheap to recruit and dont require the same amount of training as a Samurai unit would need. 
Also, every clan can only have one hero unit. However, with Zen Mod every clan feels different. This was not historically accurate and made all the clans feel the same. In the vanilla game, every clan had the same hero units.
Each Clan now has it's own unique hero unit. Historically, ashigaru were peasants that had basic training, thus they should be cheaper than trained Samurai. The Economis of the game have been changed slightly, making the recruitment and upkeep costs of ashigaru units cheaper. This adds to the difficulty makign the game much more challenging! Battle mechanics have been slowed down to add to the realism and depth of the mod by forcing you to use different manouvers such as flanking to defeat the enemy army. There is multiple versions of this mod that are customized to work with the Vanilla game or there is a version that can work with DarthMod: Shogun II. The units in Zen Mod have been balanced so each unit type's speciality is more important. Zen Mod aims to create a more historically accurate and better game by adding correct unit rosters that make each Clan more unique. Zen Mod is a complete overhaul of Shogun 2: Total War.
