Conceptual Balance Mod 1.41

[Reay]

I just played against LA Ulm in MP and I have to say Dedas is right in saying Pikeneers are a good unit. They now seem overpowered somewhat for their cost compared to the other infantry units of Ulm.

By the way the help text of CBM says that Sanguine Heritage now costs 33 slaves but still appears to be 44 slaves in game.

[Redeyes]

Yeah, those Pikeneers almost took your Jaguar warriors on a one on one basis.

In the labbing I did, their only weakness lay in their low Morale.
Interspersed with ghoul guardians, that issue is mitigated.

You are correct it still is 44.

Has something happened to Summon Spectral Infantry? Just tried to cast in an MP game and it cost 5 gems, which is the vanilla rather than CBM value??

reposted from gamethread:

i just ran another test game, this time using the exact same mods this game is using...

1.3: 5 gems for 5
1.4 1 gem for 5
1.41b 5 gems for 5

so 1.41b, perhaps also 1.41 which i didn't test, undid the 1.4 change to the price

[Dragar]

1.41b isn't an official CBM, it was Zeldor's fix of the Air 8 business

Edit: not sure if its 1.41 or 1.41b where the bug resides

Both the llamaserver and the llamabeast are in some state of confusion over what is the current version of CBM. This is partly because chrispedersen uploaded a couple of his own versions, but also partly cos I think a 1.41b was mentioned but I can't find it. QM, could you clarify please? Thanks.

1.41 is the official current version, however I recommend any games with LA Agartha use 1.4 instead.

Bug & typo fixes collected from the b & c versions posted elsewhere. Also, it seems the Bogarus horsemen didn't have the resource cost reductions mentioned in the readme. They were using #rec command (which I didn't see used anywhere else. Does it actually do anything?) with values corresponding to what the readme said their new base resource costs should be. So replaced #rec with #rcost.
