Mod Features
-Increased basic line infantry per army to be the majority of every army

-Reduced ranged infantry to be no more than 10%-20% for most armies with exceptions (e.g. High Elves/Wood Elves should have more)

-Changed ranged cavalry to be a support asset and not a unit spam like live version.

-Created multiple new roles to make distinctions that are more in depth than vanilla which creates diversity and incentives the AI to make balanced armies over just spamming the best unit it can afford.

-Set artillery to be no more than 5-10% for most armies

-Reduced chance of heroes being in any given army

-Reduced monster recruitment chance to 5-15% depending on the army and monster type

-Multiple templates for the AI to choose from so each army you face will still be different with each army specializing in a certain area e.g. some armies might have artillery and no monsters where another might have monsters and no artillery

-Specialized armies for certain legendary lords e.g. Duurthu for Wood Elves will make more monster units and infantry than your basic Wood Elf armies (yes, all the tables for WH1 are already in here since CA just had to add the new faction tables in for WH2)

The AI will still only be able to create units that it has the building availability to produce so sometimes you might run into spamming for some units here and there but that is typically rare especially once everyone has a good amount of territory.

Compatibility

-To make a unit mod compatible, change the cdir_military_generator_unit_qualities_tables entry for the added units to have the appropriate tag that I created:

Hel_infantry_heavy
Hel_infantry_medium
Hel_infantry_light
Hel_infantry_hybrid
Hel_infantry_fanatic
Hel_cav_heavy
Hel_cav_medium
Hel_missile_heavy
Hel_missile_light
Hel_arty
Hel_monster
Hel_monster_group
Hel_support
Hel_character
Hel_Lord
Hel_fly_heavy
Hel_fly_medium


Incompatible with mods that affect:
cdir_military_generator_template_ratios_tables
cdir_military_generator_unit_qualities_tables
cdir_military_generator_unit_group_overrides_tables

Savegame compatible:
Yes, but current AI armies won't magically switch to the new templates until you kill them.

PLEASE LIKE AND GIVE FEEDBACK!

I have done more experiements with this mod. Pay attention that you don't have conflicts. I finally got my mod list where there is no conflicts and this mod works perfectly. The armies feel loreful, strong and balanced. Each fight is a fresh experience.

If you use SFO with this then there is a compatibility patch for both with link in comments section of this mod. But you also need to toggle on Table Top Caps in MCT settings and for some reason the mod only works with SFO if you turn on that option. But when you do then you will see dynamic and balanced armies that are challenging and feels loreful. Combine this with a unit caps mod and you are in for a treat.

Thank you @Heljumper117 for this masterpiece of a mod.

Dark Elves continue to spam Shades in their armies

I noticed that High Elf rangers are listed as Hel_infantry_fanatic but the High Elf army templates DO NOT have that tag present in any of the templates.

does this work fine with multiplayer campaign?

If it is not too much trouble to ask would you please put up images of armies created with this mod of different factions at different stages of campaigns such as early armies, mid game armies and late game armies? So that it is easier to compare what is supposed to happen as to opposed to what the player is seeing in their game :)

Would you mine telling us a little about this experimental version so we can get a glimpse in our mind of what it might do? :D

Currently an update isn't necessary, I am working on testing a version that edits the progression system that CA added not too long ago.

I'll check things over this weekend :)
