I understand that, and indeed this mod is totally meant to change the tactical and strategic calculus of the game. The whole point is to take those things that most players do to the exclusion of all else and make them less obvious, while taking those things that are generally ignored and making them a little more attractive.

Which is why this mod uses the pretender and spell mod as a very solid base. But you are totally right, this mod is making some sweeping changes, all things considered, form vanilla dom2.
