Default Tweak to Tuatha

Newbie though I be, I'd like to suggest a slight change to Man, Last of Tuatha theme. The theme is very nicely designed, with some great units, but it is widely regarded as weak. They're quite interesting in that immediately you are faced with a very difficult design decision in that you'd like to go with a strong bless effect, but paying for it is painful, as you also need points in your scales (your mandated to have Luck 1, and you don't get any heat/cold benefit).

I think one thing that could be easily done in some upcoming patch (perhaps preceded by testing in a mod, if someone were so motivated), would be to give the bard a sage-type research bonus. This seems to me to be thematically appropriate and balanced. I don't see any reason why Last of Tuatha should be in such a tough spot to develop their research as they currently are, and having the sage bonus in the bard still wouldn't make them a top research nation. Alternatively, it might be reasonable to add the sage to their list of units.

Any thoughts?
