Default Re: Mirror image (and glamour) does not protect un

It's good that glam got nerfed, although I'm not sure if doing it by using archery was the best plan, since archers are already one of the dominant strategies. I think making the images dissapear when they're hit might have been a more interesting solution.

Also, while Helheim certainly needed some nerfing I'm not sure if glamour weakening + the double resource hit from sloth/scale mail + (the big one) cap-only svartalfs all at the same time might not be going a bit too far. The Svartalf change especially pretty much cements them as a face-hugger nation, since their research potential just got cut in half. I know EA Vanheim has the same problem, but indy-based research does not a good nation make. 160 gold for a 3RP researcher is pretty suck-tastic. Maybe the intent was to force a triple magic scale to weaken the bless? I don't know, maybe having Hel/Van run around with a legion of tribal shaman for research is a good idea from a balance standpoint (I'm doing it as Abysia), but it seems a bit off to me.
