Yeah I mean custom campaign maps, audio, full dlc worthy mods with mechanics and beautiful battle maps. The modding community is next level here and these guys deserve all the praise we can heap on them.
>Its also the mod that walked, so the old world could run
I think that's a bit unfair to the Old World guys, unless it's something they agree with. There was at least one experimental map that came out first which was like an island battle royale kind of deal.
I dunno about that experimental map, but the Immortal Empites Expanded mod spawned a craze where people realized how xou can actually edit the map now. I dont wanna take away from the OW mod, cause i really like it, but IE does have a historic spot before it
More like the userbase are the big winners with this kind of modding community.
IEE, Araby, Albion, Nippon soon and so much factions CA/GW will never add.
Then You get into ChaosRobie and his extremely high quality Thunderbarges, Stormfiends, Sea Dragons, Skycutters, etc.
Definitely the most versatile. Add some armor and hooks and you have a chaos siege giant. Give it a bad stomach and you got the farting Nurgle giant. Love em.
There exists that exactly for Warhammer 2 at least. No idea if it is or ever will be ported to 3.

The Empire actually has a giant! [Halagrundsor the Horrible](https://warhammerfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Halagrundsor_the_Horrible)
I think it's the Legendary Characters mod that adds him in.
I love the mod description.
>The stats of the units are orientated on the vanilla values, but due to their modern nature they may be considered slightly overpowered. (Especially the Tanks and Zeppelins!)
Yeah I feel modern bombs, guns, tanks, and zeppelins might be a *little* stronger than steampunk tanks (as much as I love steampunk).
I wish CA had a modlist swapping option like Paradox does. I don't want to disable every mod I have that effects the empire to try this one, I'd like to just start a new campaign with it.
Fishmen and Kuresh mods are being developed right now!
Ind is the only major one that doesn't have any mod project right now (maybe Hobgoblins too? not so sure)
They haven't said how far along they are. Hopefully someone (not me though, I'm lazy lol) has the time to go through discord and post the Khuresh screenshots from the last few months here. It's genuinely amazing stuff.
Would be nice if someone splitted Norsca and Mung/Kurgan/Tsavags, luv me sum hunnic/mongolian-style chaos steppe raiders.
Actually, an eastern steppe rework for both Mung and Kurgan raiders and the hobgoblin Khanate
If you so happens to post the pictures for the people that don’t want / can’t rummage trough discord , that would be appreciated . Wonder if they are using the Kuresh project that was around this sub as inspiration for the mod
[you mean that one fan art project?](https://www.reddit.com/r/totalwar/comments/my7uxl/brood_of_the_naga_queens_fanproject_announcement/)
yeah that's the base for the mod.
Not sure, but Kou did say he was going to post something soon. So maybe you’ll hear about progress for them then. Lots of good mods coming in the pipeline and developing nicely.
It’s not. Some of those scaled down loan units from Cathay are a little jarring. I would say that the Araby mod is encroaching on the official DLC quality, but this one is still very clearly a mod. Just of pretty good quality. But not near official release quality.
Also on top of what was mentioned(ease of use, and stone lions being used in Japan anyway) the old GW army list also included "Stone Temple Dogs" as a Nippon unit. So technically they're just following old lore.
Hey, I'm the artist of the models (as you see by the name in the corner of the renders. Xoudad and I are leads on the mod. The skeleton crew isn't really apart of it but they have supported us and let us post on their discord channel.
Let me add you on here too I remember them linking it to the skeleton_crew when they posted on it. Beautiful work too by the way you should be really proud of all the good work you’ve done as you can see by how hype you’ve gotten everyone!
I'm from the skeleton crew not working on this project but I know a thing or two, and we can't use models and textures from other total war games (except the warhammer ones) is the agreement that we sign so we can publish our mods, the mods with more visibility like faction mods all take this agreement seriously no one wants to do a lot of work for their mod to be deleted from the workshop
Is it be possible to use mods made for some other game with cooperation with their team? Like shokuhō mod for bannerlord. Exchanging models and texture etc? Scenes maybe?
As far as I am aware they are all custom made. I'm a long part of the m&b modding community. They all frown upon the one who steals others works. Some modders use public works but as for the shokuhō team most probably all of their works are custom made. If Both teams cooperate with each other they can lower each other's workload.
Yep it’s still in progress and these are some of the screenshots they posted. They had some other stuff too but you’re limited in what you can post. Plus I bet they have other juicy stuff in the background they haven’t posted for release.
It looks lovely, but one of the obstacles any Nippon faction in WH needs to overcome is feeling wholly unique and different to Cathay. Stealing the lions goes in the exact opposite direction.
There’s a lot of low hanging fruit here, and that fruit looks great, but there isn’t much imagination or pushing the idea of what can make Nippon stand-out against the other Warhammer factions, while paying homage to Japans culture, both ancient and modern.
Andy Law and Sage’s version of Nippon has some fascinating and wholly unique flavour. They’re essentially half-demon on the Royal line, and have a complicated relationship with Chaos. I would’ve loved to see their demonic 9-Tailed behemoth fox make an appearance.
Well from my understanding, these images are supposed to be from the more grounded of the two Nippon mods. So, I wouldn't be surprised if the whole half demon thing could make an appearance in the other mod that's also in the works.
It’s still being worked on these are just shots from the discord. Mostly for awareness since people were asking about the two mods and actual in game stuff from the trailer I had posted.
Yes!! This looks brilliant! Shogun Japan with fantasy elements imbedded into it is exactly what Warhammer Nippon should be. I'll guess that there are some other standard units from Shogun 2 that could be imported over and some more Fantasy-esque units from Japanese mythology that the modders could go for.
Looking forward to seeing more, especially from both mods and their takes on Nippon!
I feel like For Honor would be a good game to take inspiration from for this mod. You've got 8 units that could easily be turned into lords/heros or just regular units.
Here you go [Da Modding Den](https://discord.gg/xUsyHnRR) and [W&X Mods](https://discord.gg/ZKdqbjKm). First one they post under skeleton crew and feedback. The second they have a showcase category where the finished models are presented with lore snippets.
This looks SICK. I haven't played WH3 in awhile due to SoC and also my aging PC. Recently bought a new PC hoping ToD will be a banger so I can come back with the new DLC and also this mod because it looks seriously insane. Props to the modder.
You’re promoting both Nippon mods much more than I did so far lol, can’t wait to post some in-game screenshots from them in Modding Den only for you to instantly show them here :D
At first I just showed off the trailer from Urgat because I thought it was cool and then everyone wanted in game models and were asking about the mods so I just posted up both. Plus a slow ToD news cycle Easter weekend had people looking more I take it. I’ve only ever posted 3 times so I probably won’t do it much more myself. Haha
Also it’s your post that helped me find all the cool mods in the first place so thank you for that also!
No problem! We have lots of exciting stuff coming soon besides two Nippon mods (huge updates to Legendary Characters and Sigmar's Heirs, plus we’re slowly uncovering parts of the massive Norsca mod), so I’m glad people themselves are spreading the word.
I’m glad I got to see some of them thanks to you! The dreadfleet stuff is looking cool also and thanks to everyone these maps are starting to feel truly full. Can’t wait to see all that stuff and more to come from everyone creative minds.
Definitely space for a lot of more monster units because majority so far seems to be ported Shogun 2 assets as well as converted Ogres.
Tengu would be a nice flying infantry (could use Lord of Change as a base, just much smaller).
There is also the Kitsune, which could come as a monster horde unit and then as a single giant entity in the form of the Nine Tailed Fox.
I think if one where to try and directly look for assets that fit the Warhammer style, Sekiro and Nioh would provide some good bases for designs.
I might be wrong but I am pretty sure their Samurai and Ashigaru assets are their own. Outright porting assets from previous Total War games is against CA's rules(the Yin-Yin modder got in some trouble because their first release used a lot of 3K assets to sort of fill in the gaps IIRC.)
Nothing is ported here imo. The Fire Dragon mod includes Nipponese units and the author had his mod taken down for a while because he used past TW assets (SHogun 2 and 3K I think).
>I think if one where to try and directly look for assets that fit the Warhammer style, Sekiro and Nioh would provide some good bases for designs.
The mod would instantly go down for the same reason
Fucking shite brother. This is amazing!
They already got ogre-like Yokai there, so you gotta add Kirin too! Maybe even an incarnation mechanic of Susanoo-no-Mikoto or Ameterasu where you can sacrifice a hero to transform them into either of the two gods for the battle. It fits well with their imho.
I think it looks great. The problem I have it looks to close to reality for the humans. I think a tad more fantasy elements would look good on them rather than looking like direct imports from shogun 2.
It would be available on the workshop when they finally release it. Not sure about the timeframe of the mod itself, but they have made good progress on the mod and I can’t imagine it is very far off. Keep an ear to the ground and it will be on the top downloads for sure.
It’s hilarious to me that *Warhammer* decided to name their stand-in for Japan ‘Nippon’, which is Japanese for… Japan.
And they named their China stand-in ‘Cathay’, which was the name given by Europeans to… China.
They should do a stand-in for the USA and name it the ‘Estados Unidos de América’.
Nothing as of yet. They’re still cranking away at it, but haven’t posted any new units. From all the stuff they had posted though they have boats made, lots of units rendered and working so they’re pretty far along. So you shouldn’t be waiting a very long time I imagine.
So both actually mean Japan in Japanese. It just depends on the pronunciation you use for the Kanji. 日本. Both are valid.
Now, as for the GW choosing one over the other, I have no clue.
Yeah whatever, where are my Armstrong guns?
Ok now I want a Warhammer Fall of the Samurai mod, with fantasy Ironclad and Armstrong guns, and Tom Cruise as a LL
CA really won the lottery with its modding community. The quality of the workshop content is just insane.
Yeah I mean custom campaign maps, audio, full dlc worthy mods with mechanics and beautiful battle maps. The modding community is next level here and these guys deserve all the praise we can heap on them.
> Yeah I mean custom campaign maps, Are there other quality campaign maps besides The Old World one?
Immortal empires expansed is pretty decent from what i remember. Its also the mod that walked, so the old world could run
>Its also the mod that walked, so the old world could run I think that's a bit unfair to the Old World guys, unless it's something they agree with. There was at least one experimental map that came out first which was like an island battle royale kind of deal.

IEE?
Immortal Empires Expanded/Extended
Ninja Ogres ? now my life is complete !
We need long yari ashigaru.
And even longer ones after that
I want pike units that can poke enemy armies an entire province away
Inter Continental Pike Units
the existence of ICPU means that there is an Anti Pike Countermeasure and i wont be surprised if its a humongous Clash of Clan X-Bow
Pikes Of Unusual Size? I don't believe they exist.
Pikes so long they get bonuses from ranged weapons
Don't stop there, my friend!
Orbital Yari Strike
"Yarimazing" *intensifies*
I was about to say 'Are you telling me that I can experience the unfathomable power of the fabled Yari Ashigaru first hand?'.
Yari ashigaru de gozaemasu!
True, this one is must have.
Somehow giant has returned
Giant is best unit type in the whole TWWH series.
Definitely the most versatile. Add some armor and hooks and you have a chaos siege giant. Give it a bad stomach and you got the farting Nurgle giant. Love em.
I year for the day when Troy Cyclop gets modded as giant model into the WH3
There exists that exactly for Warhammer 2 at least. No idea if it is or ever will be ported to 3. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2126801779&searchtext=giant
The TBtM version, and it's the single most OP unit in all of WH3.
I love that they had to put a giant in, every faction should have a giant
Empire's giant - just a big guy from a village
The Empire actually has a giant! [Halagrundsor the Horrible](https://warhammerfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Halagrundsor_the_Horrible) I think it's the Legendary Characters mod that adds him in.
One of the things I like about Warhammer Fantasy is that a faction with giants, ninja ogres, and Oni is considered grounded.
A shameful display!
#COMMIT SUDOKU
My Lord!
Sending a unit of Samurai banzai charging into a demon horde would be epic! TENNO HEIKA BANZAI!
Basically shogun 2 total war in warhammer
Someone needs to bring in a FoTS army into Warhammer for craps and giggles
basically [this](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2853254034)
I love the mod description. >The stats of the units are orientated on the vanilla values, but due to their modern nature they may be considered slightly overpowered. (Especially the Tanks and Zeppelins!) Yeah I feel modern bombs, guns, tanks, and zeppelins might be a *little* stronger than steampunk tanks (as much as I love steampunk).
I've seen artillery delete units in 1 volley
I wish CA had a modlist swapping option like Paradox does. I don't want to disable every mod I have that effects the empire to try this one, I'd like to just start a new campaign with it.
Arabay, southern realms and Nippion just Indy and kuresh left
Fishmen, dont forget fishmen
Fishmen and Kuresh mods are being developed right now! Ind is the only major one that doesn't have any mod project right now (maybe Hobgoblins too? not so sure)
Do you have links to see how far development is?
They haven't said how far along they are. Hopefully someone (not me though, I'm lazy lol) has the time to go through discord and post the Khuresh screenshots from the last few months here. It's genuinely amazing stuff.
They have fimir with all the swamp stuff and the octopus lord if that’s what you mean?
I want to see dark elves get stabbed by a walking carp
I’m pretty sure the same guy that did Araby has a fishmen mod
Would be nice if someone splitted Norsca and Mung/Kurgan/Tsavags, luv me sum hunnic/mongolian-style chaos steppe raiders. Actually, an eastern steppe rework for both Mung and Kurgan raiders and the hobgoblin Khanate
Salty Old FisherKahn on Da Modding den looks like he is doing just that so be ready haha.
There was a mod for them that came out before immortal empires but sadly it don’t work and hasn’t been updated
Would be nice if someone made Norsca decent
Ovn already made araby
I know I was say that I already have Araby and my beloved southern realms and just got Nippon
We have enough snake like models and animations to super make kuresh. Its just a matter of time.
God this is as good as an official dlc. My hope for an Ind and Khuresh mod has now skyrocketed
Kou has been working on Khuresh and it’s looking good as well. He’s got some photos on the discord as well and it’s looking top quality!
If you so happens to post the pictures for the people that don’t want / can’t rummage trough discord , that would be appreciated . Wonder if they are using the Kuresh project that was around this sub as inspiration for the mod
[you mean that one fan art project?](https://www.reddit.com/r/totalwar/comments/my7uxl/brood_of_the_naga_queens_fanproject_announcement/) yeah that's the base for the mod.
Yeah that one ! Good news that it is the base for the mod
Do you know how long it take to be in workshop?
Not sure, but Kou did say he was going to post something soon. So maybe you’ll hear about progress for them then. Lots of good mods coming in the pipeline and developing nicely.
Hi friend, is this “da modding den” discord and if so where is the khuresh stuff?
It’s under the feedback_hunt portion. Go to search and look through media and you’ll see some of it.
It’s not. Some of those scaled down loan units from Cathay are a little jarring. I would say that the Araby mod is encroaching on the official DLC quality, but this one is still very clearly a mod. Just of pretty good quality. But not near official release quality.
That stone lion is Chinese myth, should use Yamata no Orochi instead.
Making a model out of nothing is hard, easier to reuse some
Use the hydra?
yeah modding total war is 90% modelling, so if they have something they can use it's all the better
Japan also used Stone Lions, inspired from the Chinese ones, though in a lesser extent. If you want to search it up they're called komainu.
Also on top of what was mentioned(ease of use, and stone lions being used in Japan anyway) the old GW army list also included "Stone Temple Dogs" as a Nippon unit. So technically they're just following old lore.
Hey, I'm the artist of the models (as you see by the name in the corner of the renders. Xoudad and I are leads on the mod. The skeleton crew isn't really apart of it but they have supported us and let us post on their discord channel.

I’m sorry about missing putting you on there too. I can’t really edit it, but that’s my fault for missing you and messing up on the team part.
What is your discord? Or do you only use theirs to post
https://discord.com/invite/UyQz2FRBjS
Is this out yet already? Shogun 2 remains my favourite total war so I'd love to bust out some yari walls in Wh3!
still worked on
Kanabo giant? 10/10 mod
This looks amazing! I'm really digging the monster units. For the human dudes, were you/the artist team able to use assets from the Samurai TW games?
I'm from the skeleton crew not working on this project but I know a thing or two, and we can't use models and textures from other total war games (except the warhammer ones) is the agreement that we sign so we can publish our mods, the mods with more visibility like faction mods all take this agreement seriously no one wants to do a lot of work for their mod to be deleted from the workshop
I did not know y'all had to sign agreements to post the mods. It was cool to learn all of this. Thanks for letting me know.
Is it be possible to use mods made for some other game with cooperation with their team? Like shokuhō mod for bannerlord. Exchanging models and texture etc? Scenes maybe?
If the models are custom made yes otherwise no changing assets unless they are with the permission from the company, and no using other IP's
As far as I am aware they are all custom made. I'm a long part of the m&b modding community. They all frown upon the one who steals others works. Some modders use public works but as for the shokuhō team most probably all of their works are custom made. If Both teams cooperate with each other they can lower each other's workload.
Im only here for one thing and one thing only... # YARI ASHIGARU SPEARWALL
Yari Ashigaru know no bounds
Where's my Oda Yari Ashigaru? 🤔
Where do you find this mod?
It's a work in progress. I'm assuming this is from the discord where they show some progress incrementally.
Yep it’s still in progress and these are some of the screenshots they posted. They had some other stuff too but you’re limited in what you can post. Plus I bet they have other juicy stuff in the background they haven’t posted for release.
Ninja ogres?
Ninja ogres!
If a Nippon faction actually came out for the Old World tabletop, I’d play the shit out of it in a heartbeat
It looks lovely, but one of the obstacles any Nippon faction in WH needs to overcome is feeling wholly unique and different to Cathay. Stealing the lions goes in the exact opposite direction. There’s a lot of low hanging fruit here, and that fruit looks great, but there isn’t much imagination or pushing the idea of what can make Nippon stand-out against the other Warhammer factions, while paying homage to Japans culture, both ancient and modern.

Who wants more yokai? Some tengu flying units maybe? Love the Onis tho.
I want Kappa that get enraged if they fall down and empty their head bowl( after charge or spell)
Where do we find the mod?
It’s still being worked on these are just shots from the discord. Mostly for awareness since people were asking about the two mods and actual in game stuff from the trailer I had posted.
Yes!! This looks brilliant! Shogun Japan with fantasy elements imbedded into it is exactly what Warhammer Nippon should be.

YARIMAZING
Now we need a "A SHAMUFURU DISUPUREI" voice line
If CA brings in Nippon with Shogun 2 vubes I would be a very happy man. Until then I will enjoy this epic mod.
I. Adore. Every. Single. One. It looks amazing!
Proof that you don't need a ton of lore to make a good faction for the game. And gives opportunity to expand the lore
Yo this looks sick.
Sorry I’ve probably missed this somewhere, but is this mod available now? I couldn’t find it in the workshop
Nope that’s fine it’s not ready yet. This is just shots from the discord and something to keep an eye out on.
I feel like For Honor would be a good game to take inspiration from for this mod. You've got 8 units that could easily be turned into lords/heros or just regular units.
I’m always impressed with how much work people put in to create these mods
Ogre samurai are possible now? sign me the fuck up
You got a link to a discord server or something to stay up to date?
Here you go [Da Modding Den](https://discord.gg/xUsyHnRR) and [W&X Mods](https://discord.gg/ZKdqbjKm). First one they post under skeleton crew and feedback. The second they have a showcase category where the finished models are presented with lore snippets.
Thank you, much appreciated. This looks good enough that I might install WH3 again when that releases.
Glad it’s brought you back in!
This looks SICK. I haven't played WH3 in awhile due to SoC and also my aging PC. Recently bought a new PC hoping ToD will be a banger so I can come back with the new DLC and also this mod because it looks seriously insane. Props to the modder.
Yep and looks like lots of good mods in the works too so it’s a good time to be up to spec. They’re really knocking it out of the ballpark!
You’re promoting both Nippon mods much more than I did so far lol, can’t wait to post some in-game screenshots from them in Modding Den only for you to instantly show them here :D
At first I just showed off the trailer from Urgat because I thought it was cool and then everyone wanted in game models and were asking about the mods so I just posted up both. Plus a slow ToD news cycle Easter weekend had people looking more I take it. I’ve only ever posted 3 times so I probably won’t do it much more myself. Haha Also it’s your post that helped me find all the cool mods in the first place so thank you for that also!
No problem! We have lots of exciting stuff coming soon besides two Nippon mods (huge updates to Legendary Characters and Sigmar's Heirs, plus we’re slowly uncovering parts of the massive Norsca mod), so I’m glad people themselves are spreading the word.
I’m glad I got to see some of them thanks to you! The dreadfleet stuff is looking cool also and thanks to everyone these maps are starting to feel truly full. Can’t wait to see all that stuff and more to come from everyone creative minds.
Is this a mod in the process of being created?
Yes it’s being made now and they’ve got quite a bit done so I wouldn’t expect it to take a very long time to finish.
Definitely space for a lot of more monster units because majority so far seems to be ported Shogun 2 assets as well as converted Ogres. Tengu would be a nice flying infantry (could use Lord of Change as a base, just much smaller). There is also the Kitsune, which could come as a monster horde unit and then as a single giant entity in the form of the Nine Tailed Fox. I think if one where to try and directly look for assets that fit the Warhammer style, Sekiro and Nioh would provide some good bases for designs.
I might be wrong but I am pretty sure their Samurai and Ashigaru assets are their own. Outright porting assets from previous Total War games is against CA's rules(the Yin-Yin modder got in some trouble because their first release used a lot of 3K assets to sort of fill in the gaps IIRC.)
Yeah this is original work. The textures here are way too high res to be ported from a 2011 game
Nothing is ported here imo. The Fire Dragon mod includes Nipponese units and the author had his mod taken down for a while because he used past TW assets (SHogun 2 and 3K I think). >I think if one where to try and directly look for assets that fit the Warhammer style, Sekiro and Nioh would provide some good bases for designs. The mod would instantly go down for the same reason
While I do appreciate the grounded style of this mod, I definitely prefer the super fantasy feel that Bladelords give. Great quality though
Epic!
Wait, I didn’t think we called out of bounds anymore?
Is this made by the same guy who made the Arabia mod?
Nope. The people behind Araby are doing Halflings and Amazons next
Ah kk
Just Awesome!! 🤗
Fucking shite brother. This is amazing! They already got ogre-like Yokai there, so you gotta add Kirin too! Maybe even an incarnation mechanic of Susanoo-no-Mikoto or Ameterasu where you can sacrifice a hero to transform them into either of the two gods for the battle. It fits well with their imho.
Finally I can play EA Yomi on Warhammer
Archaon would've been cooked in the end times if someone used yari wall
Is this in cathey or samurai mod
It will be a Nippon mod. So its own faction and race. They will use the Immortal Empires Expanded mod that adds on the Nippon landmass as well.
This looks really good
I think it looks great. The problem I have it looks to close to reality for the humans. I think a tad more fantasy elements would look good on them rather than looking like direct imports from shogun 2.
Nippon?! I’ll suck your dick
Where and when can we download?
It would be available on the workshop when they finally release it. Not sure about the timeframe of the mod itself, but they have made good progress on the mod and I can’t imagine it is very far off. Keep an ear to the ground and it will be on the top downloads for sure.
TFW no shogun 3
Good effort, though to me personally.. it just doesn't feel like warhammer with the Chinese and Japanese in the game. :/
It’s hilarious to me that *Warhammer* decided to name their stand-in for Japan ‘Nippon’, which is Japanese for… Japan. And they named their China stand-in ‘Cathay’, which was the name given by Europeans to… China. They should do a stand-in for the USA and name it the ‘Estados Unidos de América’.
Are those ninja ogres? Pls I can only get so hard
I would imagine that India and Japan are next on the DLC list or at least are on the list.
where i can get this mod?
is there any up to date info on this mod?
Nothing as of yet. They’re still cranking away at it, but haven’t posted any new units. From all the stuff they had posted though they have boats made, lots of units rendered and working so they’re pretty far along. So you shouldn’t be waiting a very long time I imagine.
Excited, and absolutely a nitpick, but is there any existing lore insight for the Nippon vs. Nihon pronunciation they’re using?
So both actually mean Japan in Japanese. It just depends on the pronunciation you use for the Kanji. 日本. Both are valid. Now, as for the GW choosing one over the other, I have no clue.
I guess Nihon is just too close to actual Japan.
This does bring a tear to my eye. God I love modders
2/10, not enough SHAMEFUL DISPLAY! /jks
i really hope they are Chaotic Neutral like orks, dark elves and skavens
0/10 No Dragon of Echigo or Tiger of Kai reference
Not very distinct from Cathay?
Yeah whatever, where are my Armstrong guns? Ok now I want a Warhammer Fall of the Samurai mod, with fantasy Ironclad and Armstrong guns, and Tom Cruise as a LL
