I would have liked CBM. As a fairly new player I think it actually helps people like me. It makes other strategies/ spells/ pretenders reasonable alternatives. And as I don't yet know all the 'correct' / power gaming moves now it helps me that the others are less bad.

Although many of the experts seem to know CBM well I probably have more chance of surprising them with that mod than in Vanilla. Plus if I haven't picked the 'proper' paths CBM may well boost the sub optimal path I have picked giving me a better chance. Be that troop builds, spell choices, pretenders etc.
