Magic Overhaul: Useful Buffs

These magic tweaks aim to make non-damaging spells more useful and interesting.
Buffs (and debuffs!) are now large, long and powerful.
Most of the spells have been modified, with the exception of most damaging spells.


Typically, what you can expect is better and more useful non-damaging spells, thanks to:

• - Larger (and added!) area of effects
  
• - Longer durations
  
• - Stronger, but not overpowered, buffs and debuffs

Now you can place a large aoe to significantly buff a lot of your army for a while, instead of not giving a small bonus to one dude for a few seconds.


- Damaging spells are not buffed. They're strong enough already for the most part.
- Rather than simply increasing the existing values, care has been put to give spells new effects to make them feel more unique and interesting.
- Overcasts offer alternative uses for the spells, rather than simply more raw power.
- Buffs and Debuffs are stronger, but not op.


Look up the changes to your favorite magic lore to not miss anything !
Google Sheet link[docs.google.com]
(only shows the modified values compared to vanilla, not the complete effects of each spells)


Changes have been made to the realm of souls, and to a larger extent, to undead fatigue:
- Realm of Souls healing increased by 50%
- Realm of Souls now also restores 25% vigor per stage
- Curse of Undeath (vampire lore passive) now also restores 15% vigor per spell cast

- Lore or tabletop were not in mind. I looked at spell descriptions and extrapolated from there.
- Balance however was in mind, but not the focus (= aimed for pve rather than pvp), some spells may still be too strong or still too weak.

- Spell cards are a bit funky, as you can see in the images. There is nothing i can do about it if i want to display accurate information without completely destroying mod compatibility with any mod that uses tooltips.

• Obviously, other mods that affect spells will be a funky experience at your own risk. But if it only changes damage spells for instance, it should be fine. Depends on mod priority. Mine is fairly high for the critical tables. One mod will take priority over the other, so try and see i guess.
  
• Should sort of work with mods that affect spell vfx. What should happen is that it all works as intended, but the spells i modified aren't affected by the vfx mod. Check for a modified mana cost, if it doesn't have my mod's value, then it's not compatible.
  
• Compatibility mod by Jolc3r for Miscast Mod - Big Loud Exciting Miscasts by Morven
  
• Yes multiplayer, Yes saved games.

Feedback and suggestions are greatly appreciated !
If you think some spell is too weak, or too strong, let me know and i'll take a second look at it.
If a damaging spell feels too weak or strong, i will also change it.
If some spell is weird or lame or bugged or doesn't work as advertised, do let me know as well !
