I'd like to suggest a CBM version, too. Shouldn't be too hard to come by, just parse the Gods part of the mod.

I checked out the Skaven mod. All I would have to do is parse something like this, right for each God in CBM?

I think it would be easy enough to come up with an extension to parse mods in this way since all the info you need is right here.

Code:

---

-------- New Pretender





---- Seerlord





#newmonster 2173

#copystats 1010

#clearmagic#clearmagic#clearmagic

#spr1 "./Skaven/Pretender Seerlord.tga"

#spr2 "./Skaven/Pretender Seerlord2.tga"

#name "Skaven Seerlord"

#descr "Removed for forum post"

#hp 16

#size 2

#prot 5

#mor 30

#mr 18

#enc 3

#str 10

#att 12

#def 13

#prec 11

#mapmove 2

#ap 15

#gcost 30

#rcost 1

#weapon "falchion"

#poisonres 35

#stealthy 0

#magicskill 5 1

#magicskill 4 1

#expertleader

#pathcost 20

#startdom 2

#makemonster3 2148

#restrictedgod 73

#nametype 148

#nobadevents 40

#end

---

I assume "magic skills" represent each individual path for the pretender?

The only important points there are:

#startdom X - Starting dominion value
#restrictedgod X - Which nation it belongs to
#pathcost X - how much a new path costs
#magicskill X X - the path and amount of starting magic
#goldcost X - the initial cost of the chassis

CBM gods won't make use of #restrictedgod. They might well change some of the other values though.
