Version 3.0 of Haida Gwaii!
Recently I decided to revisit Haida Gwaii to take advantage of all the new mod commands put into the game. My knowledge of the game in general has also increased over the past couple of years, so I did some balance changes as well. The nation shouldn't play like MA Man's big brother anymore, but the changes aren't enough to steer away from the original theme of the nation. You can employ various strategies including a bless, stealth raiding and water raiding. I hope you enjoy the changes, this should be the last version of this mod, unless i do changes for bug fixes or typos.
This version contains the following major changes:
-The sacred animals are no longer recruitable, they have become summons.
-Frenzied Moksgmol is now ethereal.
-Thunderbirds are immortal.
-New killer whale sacred summon
-Sgaana Warriors, Tyee and Shaman get waterform
-Sgaana Archer replaced with Eagle Archer

-Coyote Mother changed to 2n/1s
-Kachina summons only one thunderbird a turn now
-Sgaana Shaman is more magically diverse now
-Eagle Talon is more magically diverse now
-Added Raven Archer, stealthy archer
-Added Raven Warrior, stealthy light warrior
-Added Bear Warrior, regening, recuping dual wielder
-Slightly altered Crest Pole graphic
-Slightly altered Great Raven graphic
-Reduced number of starting troops
-Added shallow water fort

-Altered most spell costs
