Why are so many units #att values so low? Even untrained militia has attack value of 7.

Old masters trained in martial arts should have att/def 10 or 11, before old age maluses. Giving them higher stats wouldn't be out of line, as long as you don't go overboard. See LA Tien Chi barbarian mages, some of whom have base att/def 13 or 14 before old age.

Wushu and Kungfu as weapons is a nice way of doing them.

That is true Endoperez, however, you need to take into consideration that they do 3 attacks in one turn. They do a Kung Fu attack, Wushu Attack, and a Chi Kick. When you add these three attacks the damage per turn average to 16 damage a turn. They get 3 chanses of striking, giving them more oportunities to do damage each turn. Also, their cost is low.

The strengh of this unit comes from its blessing. This unit can become a killing machine if you give it Air Shield and Quickness. It already has high def and magic resist.

I didn't comment on balance, just the low attack values.

The offcet to the Kung Fu Master's of multiple attacks is low attack values, low hp, no armor.

Really... it doesn't take THAT long to download the mod and read throught he .dm. The kungfu-guys have like attack of 5, and the special unit with kungfu and chi kick and bite and claw and fist and whatever else in addition to glamour and magic, well, he has total of 5 hp. I didn't notice any units that didn't have a clear weakness, and I just read through the .dm.
