The intent of this mod is to enhance armies, both magical and mundane and to reduce the role of the super combatant. This mod also attempts to address some of the spells that considered by many to be highly efficient. It also reduces the effectiveness of some of the hoarding strategies which are commonly employed.
We're playing on the Peter Ebbesen modded Wars of Orania "Nasty Edition" map, with some slight modfications. We are shooting for a full house for maximum carnage... failing that excess slots will be filled with moderate or hard AI depending on how many.
Game Settings:
Indep Strength: 9
Research: very hard
Magic Site Freq: 50
Hall of Fame: 15
Graphs: off
Renaming: allowed
Victory: Standard
I want to try graphs off to see how it affects the political dynamic and reward diligent scouting. We'll be playing with a little less gem sites than the Last one, but the house restrictions we used are now dropped, in favour of the mod which should seriously curtail hoarding.

*** Note: Dec. 7th 2004 ***
I have updated the test mod to include Zen's latest changes to the spell and pretender conceptual balance mods.
If you have already made and uploaded a pretender, you will have to recreate him with the new mod file enabled.
