Default Re: Modding Idea List

Well, in the vanilla game many units and spells are niche - only useful under specific, fairly narrow circumstances.

CBM tends to flatten everything out, making all units equal.

So, yeah, you use everything - but it doesn't make any difference what you use because everything is the same.

That's an exaggeration.

It makes some efforts to tone-down W9F9 blesses - but encourages D9N4 blesses (for example). It also fiddles with the costs for boosting items in a way that is ill-considered, IMO.
