Plague Cauldron feature for Clan Pestilens

Another of my ‘Give feature A to another faction B’ series. The basics are the same with Nurgle and Festus. Here are some notable changes:

• Now clan Pestilens has access to infection resources. Which can be earned by eating captives in post-battle choice (16:1 ratio), landmark, and 13 scheme ritual.
• Effects are mostly the same. I’ve only changed Nurgle corruption to Skaven corruption, and Nurgle building cycle reduction to growth bonus and summoning Nurgle unit to number of menace form below uses+
• There is only one basic plague for the Pastilens clan. Mostly due to the basic one being too powerful. However, I did add 5 infection resource gains on the plague spread in the basic effect.

Q. Every flavor text is the same as Nurgle. It feels weird when Nurgle comes out every time in the text.
A. Not a creative and lore guy and couldn’t think of a neat way to change it. Changing Nurgle, and Grandfather into Horned one really does not fit.

Q. What is that great unclean one doing in the panel?
A. No, it’s just a big fat rat cosplaying as a horned one. How rude of you to accuse someone of being fat.
Seriously, I can’t change a movie.

Q. Is it compatible with the ‘Pestilent Brotherhood’ mod?
A. This mod checks for faction-specific things in the DB so I don’t think it will work for the new factions in the mod.

Q. You can use food resource for the mechanism, why use infection resource?
A. I wanted to. However, it was coded into twui XML. If I wanted to use food, I have to change the twui, or skillfully use the cco object call. I thought it would be easier this way.

Q. Why didn’t you use the Plague cultist feature to entwine Pestilent Scheme?
A. 1. It was too hard. 2. I want to leave some independent way of triggering plague free from infection resources.

Q. Infection icon is shown as food in the post-battle option.
A. I know but couldn’t fix that. If you know how to do it, please leave it in the comment.

It seems like there is so little way to spend infections while income is growing significantly via post-battle options.

Upgrade Pestilens clan units with infection? Recruit some of the Nurgle units with infection. IDK

However, because of Throt, all Skaven upgrades accompany augment UI which is not so pretty to look. Thus, adding an upgrade does not seem to be a good idea at this point. See the following link: https://discord.com/channels/373745291289034763/1059396420144205835

Thanks, DrunkenFlamingo for creating ‘Template Pooled Resource UI Element and Script’. It really saved me a lot of time.

All feedbacks, bug reports, and suggestions are welcome.
