Mod: Conceptual Balance Mod 1.6

Yes, I meant to mention: Sombre's combo mods could also pretty much be considered standard for MA and LA games, as they have a good combination of mods rolled into them. They additionally have nation mods, which you can use or not use as you prefer.

I have some ambition to include cut-down versions of the community sprite mod and possibly the magic site mod as well. "Conservative" versions if you will, which contain only elements that I think the large majority of players will be happy to have included. Going through the magic site mod might be quite hard work though.

Sombre, I love your mod combos but what I had in mind is CBM with some gfx and flavor mods but w/o nation mods. Like Vanilla game on steroids. The Community Sprites is really nice and I'd really love to see it included in CBM/CBM combo. Same for streamers.

Can somebody tell me which sections of the mod deal with removing the Summon Allies ability from heroes?

[Globu]

That's the strange thing, Rookierookie -- there doesn't seem to be (from analyzing the two entries that I've put the summon ally ability back into) any actual command that does it. It seems, then, that modifying the units without specifically re-enabling that ability does so. If that's the case, then it's simply a matter of knowing which ones are supposed to have it, and manually re-entering it for those who prefer it. (And it makes me wonder if, in the sprite mod, I'll need to watch out for that -- if merely changing the sprite for a unit could unwittingly disable certain abilities of it.)

But my Dom3 modding knowledge is extremely rudimentary, so I am perhaps missing something. Someone else would need to verify this technical bit. (I understand the points that have been made as to the possible intentional nature of the removal and the undesirability of it from certain viewpoints, but in spite of these I find my own preference on it remains as is.)
