I know the feeling. It's weird and nothing's quite like you remember it. There are some cool changes, though. Check out Lord of War, I really liked the CB version.

hm i dislike it that you changed the magic scales to vanilla but ill check it out, thx for the work

I think the cleansing bell is a bit cheap now.. against demon or undead it's VERY powerfull and for 5 gems it's a bit overpowered. While not equipment for a die hard SC it can be very usefull for troops with a bit of staying power. (I'm using them against Lanka in MP and on blessed Niefel Jarls you get quite some punch out of them, basicly much more kill since their usual main strat is just wait till frost kicks in.. now whileI'm waiting demons fall left and right)

I'd like to make a general statement disagreeing with lowering the cost of a spell *just* because it's unpopular. If it's unpopular because it's not very good, then I think steps should be taken to find ways to make it more effective, rather than just cheaper, because what's the point of a cheap spell that still isn't worth casting? I don't know how easy this would be, but if a spell can be modded by cost, it seems reasonable that there are ways to mod it more potent.

[JimMorrison]

Well gem cost reduction means the most in summons - and maybe got cost reduced and/or # summoned increased. So in those cases it's more just about making the spells gem effective, since all summons are potentially useful, just in vanilla many are neither gem nor time efficient.

I do think that tweaking the costs of unique artifacts is a bit silly though, except maybe to raise the cost of some to reflect their perceived value.

Still, how about fixing Bogarus cavalry? Its their only damage dealing troop after all. Malaya Druzhina still have no lances, Grid Druzhina has lances instead of bows (wich makes sense), but no shields (which makes no sense since they lost bows).
