Vampire Counts Magic Fine-tuned

This mod's purpose is to modify the LORES OF MAGIC used by the Vampire Counts, both in vanilla and in the context of new lores in the Vampire Counts Fine-tuned series. As always, I'm keeping up with the spirit of the series to make gameplay meaningful and lore-friendly, while also taking care to not make OP changes.

There are several changes to the Lore of Vampires, Lore of Death, Lore of Shadows, Lore of Beasts, Lore of Fire, Lore of Plague, Lore of Nehekhara and Lore of Dark - the non-vanilla ones pertaining to some specific skills avaiable to specific lords because of previous mods' changes.

I could've restricted those changes to just said characters, but as a balancing principle I've extended all changes to all lore users, regardless if they're vampires or not. Finally, several tooltips are lacking update, but the changes are indeed in effect - this will be patched in the future.


Just the fact you're using this mod gives me joy, but if you can, please rate and favorite the mod in order to spread it further in the community:

This mod should be compatible with most mods, with the exception of those that change these specific spells' cost, damage and properties values. Fully compatible with mods that insert new effects other than these listed.

This is compatible with Aexrael's Vampiric Resurgence

Also compatible with my Vampire Counts Units Fine-tuned, Vampire Counts Tech Tree Fine-tuned, Vampire Counts Bloodlines Fine-tuned and Vampire Counts Lords and Heroes Fine-tuned.

This may be compatible with SFO, but I do not guarantee.

Please comment if you find any specific compatibility issue.
