It has no effect if the current population is greater than 1000.

Besides, what you are thinking of would be "by".

Sure, 1000 isn't a lot of people but it's an awful lot better than the 0's left behind by LA Ermor. I'm also figuring it should affect either every province under your dominion, every province you own or probably every province in the world.

It will let you recruit that indie mage.

But it would be a big help in provinces that have been emptied by bad scales.

Maybe it should be abit higher, and come with scales-healing also (or they might end up right back where they were). Actually I wouldnt mind a spell like that for doing provinces one at a time. Maybe re-roll the province as a fresh independents province.

Boots of Youth doesn't help with Burden of Time.

But I like Endo's idea for an immortality wish much better than actual immortality, which would be really unbalancing.

New Wish: Time of the Elders.

Each turn until dispelled, angels of destruction visit the brightest of this era, the cycle turns, the time of chaos has arrived.

Each turn the angels will visit 2-4 of the biggest, most experience rulers of the land. There is no beatng them, eluding them for they are death ...
And flight the only option...

(Special resistance roll.. If move > 2 x drn (ie, 4 open ended dice) the angel has been eluded... this turn.)

I would oppose any changes to Wish that allows the user to create arbitrarily powerful units (a couple thousand Astral gems = full resists, 30+ MR, 100 Health, Immortality, and blood vengeance before items??? that would be unstoppable).

While you could argue that if you have the Astral gems to create this unit you could win anyway, I would rather not have the ability in the game and force the player to use that "anyway" strategy they could have used instead.

Wish is powerful enough in that it gives any unit you want, any item you want, and all the magic gems and paths you want that the ability to turn any unit into an invincible SC is unnecessary.

Hmmm...

Wish for Genocide of [Insert Unit type]

Personally, this could be one hell of a wish to use against enemies that use giant hordes of units of one type.

Genocide of Tartarian Cyclops/Titan/Monstroso anyone?
