I'm checking to see what people would like, because as of right now it's changed the vanilla DF races to: Japanese Samurai, Japanese Shinobi, Chinese, Korean, and Thai with more to be added - maybe other mythical beings.
Each race/civ has unique weapons and armor from their feudal past (no guns) and temperament I've made to fit to their cultural history. It will be harder to forge metal armor than regular DF. Weapons will also be much more varied and large, damaging weapons much more difficult to create.
Unarmed combat will feature moves from each civ's martial discipline. Jujutsu for Japanese Samurai, Ninjitsu for Japanese Shinobi, Shaolin Kung Fu for China, Taekwondo for Korea, and Muay Thai for Thai.
If you want an idea of what sort of detail I'm going into - this isn't finished yet.

A list of creatures I'm incorporating are here so far
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_legendary_creatures_from_Japanas well as hundreds of other dragons, yokai(demons), obake(shapeshifters), yurei(ghostly spirits) and everyday plants/animals from Japan like tomaru chickens, pigs, koi, noma pony.
I hope people will enjoy it more than all the work necessary to finish it
