Default new mod: stronger national heroes

I felt that most of the heroes in dom2 are not very useful, so I created this mod to make them more fun.
I have mainly raised stats, hp and magic paths and given some thematic abilities, so that they can play a greater role in the great dominion wars.
Don´t expect them to knock out devils without equipment.

I hope you enjoy the mod and let me know if there are any mistakes. Thanks

edit: uploaded version 1.1
added descriptions for new assassins, raised prec on most mages, gave out a few missing weapons( lances for ulm´s heroes, hoof attack for witchhunter general, empoisener weapons for master empoisener), added a herald lance for angelique d´armant(anti-undead)
removed heal troops from brangwen, added researchboni on a few mages. Reduced machaka king to holy 4, raised awe.
raised leaderships on several heroes.

edit2: uploaded version 1.2
gave most melee heroes some basic magic equipment, like black steel plates/helmets/kiteshields for ulm´s heroes, gloves of the gladiator for the master of the games, etc. Others got enchanted spears/swords etc, nothing above const lvl 4.
added two missing heroes from GE arco, gave the maker of the maze forge bonus 20 and improved stats on the monster.

Since I guess you want to check the new heroes out before you play with them, here is a modified version of the blackunitview map, which lets you see only all the heroes.

I updated the map file to include Arcos Golden Era heroes.

Interesting mod, and great idea! I agreed on most changes I noticed, and didn't notice anything that was overly boosted. Although I'm not sure if Angerboda was that good without this mod...

Any way, a suggestion for possible version 1.1: give Abasi the Log Wielder ability to Assasinate. And I think Stealth +0 suits him better.

he already has it . I should have put it clearly in the description.
Other new assasins are bartholomeus(description) and the member of the third tier(fits thematically).
angerboda just got +1 nature, cold aura and slighly better stats.
Other hidden changes are: gemproduction for the scythe wielder(one death) and the tien´chi healing hero(collects herbs, 1 nature).

If you want to compare the changes, just start a new game on the map with the mod disabled.

I realized one blunder already though, I gave brangwen heal troops, not realizing that it makes no sense for her to be blind then. So 1.1 will definitely come.

Oh, of course. I just thought he didn't have the ability, because he didn't get the order for it. Of course, he wasn't on enemy province, or even hiding/sneaking.
