Here’s a concept of the new civilization, the Japanese in this DLC concept. The Japanese builds Sakura Trees as a source of favor, the more trees you built, the faster the favors you generate. Two heroic human units that are effective against myth units; the Ninja is a fragile, but powerful melee specialist and the Kunoichi, a mobile but highly powerful ranged warrior. When human and myth units stands in the vicinity of the Sakura Tree, they grant Divine damage bonus.
