Great post! We've had many wishlist threads, but these tend to suggest things that are hard to implement. Congrats on being the first poster I remember to have actually suggested something for the NEXT patch, instead of "some patch way to the future, right before Dom4".

Thank you. Of course I have lots of suggestions for new Yomi/Shinuyama/Jomon units and summons, but I tried to restrict the list to the things that the developers can actually include in a patch with almost no effort.
LA Ulm has a single national summon, which is quite expensive, so you won't usually be summoning more than one Count in a turn anyway. Plus, this unit is very important for LA Ulm, as its main strategy is built around it. Finally, with Skull Staff and Brazen Vessel a Count can summon more Counts. This means that LA Ulm just takes a D3B3 pretender by default, and the problem is solved.
Jomon, on the other hand, just has lots of (quite average)national summons, and almost no way to use them. I still think that a sorcerer with Death and some random magic can make this nation much more attractive. It's easy to add too - after all, developers can just repaint an Onmyo-ji sprite into some darker color, I don't think anybody will object
I'm not really sure what can be done to improve priests. Maybe add a random magic pick, or even a Summon Allies ability that summons some minor spirits(Kami)? Of course, this would make them more expensive to hire.
Also, I think that giving Seduction to Kitsune is important. Currently it is just an overpriced Nature mage summon. It is reasonable with Shinuyama, where it can boost its stealthy armies, but almost useless for Jomon. It's too expensive to be used as a spy too. Giving it Seduction would make it a powerful unit, as it also can cast Charm. Jomon is really underpowered right now, so it will not be unbalancing, while giving players an intersting and fun strategy to use. It is also thematic.
