Less upkeep for lords and heroes
In term of gameplay this mod makes heroes and lords cheaper to sustain (less upkeep for both the Player and the AI).
The intent of this mod is to reflect the fact that heroes and lords can take care of their own expenses and that you, as his ruler will only pay for his war effort.
The modifications uses a formula based around the cost of mounts and other factors.
The "normal" reduction is -200 but the formula makes sure the "cheaper" characters still cost something (all characters with a base value under 250 will cost 20% of their base cost instead of -200)
For exemple
– Karl Franz on foot : 275 becomes 75
– Karls Franz on griffon : 375 becomes 175
and so on
The values in game may be higher or lower due to upkeep modifiers (the one for numbers of armies for example).
The anticipated consequences are :
1) The max number of Heroes can be recruited with almost no impact on your economy.
2) More expansives units can be recruited for the same army upkeep cost since the lords cost less.
3) The auto upgrade of a mount does not makes your economy plummet all of a sudden …
This mod should be save game compatible and compatible with all mods except if existing lords or heroes in "main_units" are modified by an other mod.
