Artillery Lords (Multi-shot for ranged lords and heroes)

Description
Are you tired of ranged lords that do next to nothing on the battlefield? Do you envy the hundreds of kills your casters and melee fighters obtain, whereas your ranged lords sit without any? Do you dream of range lords that act like pseudo-artillery infantry shredding units? Then this mod is for you.

This mod gives a multi-shot and single-shot attack to all ranged lords and heroes (vanilla). Let me know if I missed any.
The multi-shot attack increases the missile strength by 4x and splits it into 40x the number of original projectiles fired by the lord. This allows them to generally do reasonable damage (5-10% per shot) over battles, racking up upwards of 100 kills in battles lasting five minutes or more if they remain online.

Notes:
Originally used 10 projectiles with each projectile 1/10 of the weapon strength, but found that there was barely any improvement in the number of kills and damage output. Current scaling allows a custom battle stack of handmaidens/khainite assassins to beat an equivalent stack of skaven infantry. Open to scaling down damage based on feedback.

@ondrej.stonis, the tables in that mod don't seem to overlap with this so it should be compatible (in that both should show up). But my mod targets heroes that generally have ranged weapons in vanilla so the modded heroes won't have this.

@Zach -- yes, this is for both the player and the AI. Will probably do more testing to see if the AI does make the ammo switch.

is it compatible with this mod ? [SACRED] RANGED HERO - Compilation

Does the AI make use of these?

@lethery -- yeah. It should include all buffs the lord should obtain in campaign including contact effects like flammable, weeping blade or sundered armor. Let me know if you find any lords where this is not the case.

So this "The multi-shot attack increases the missile strength by 4x and splits it into 40x the number of original projectiles fired by the lord" actually consider all the buffs that a ranged lord gets in campaign ? also the same contact effect ?
