Modifiable Winds of Magic Pool

WH3 overhauled the magic reserves system from WH2 to make it much clearer and more straightforward. While I think the new system is in most aspects an improvement from the old system, there is one thing that I do not like: the hard limit of 100 maximum Winds in an army's reserve pool. In my opinion, the inability to increase that maximum number removed a great deal of the experience in WH2 of truly investing in magic over the course of a campaign. With a hard limit, you can easily reach 100 reserves within the first few turns of a campaign and then that's it. That is as much magic as you will ever be able to have throughout the entire rest of the campaign. I wanted to be able to see a difference in my magic between turn 5 and turn 50 besides just what spells I may have, so I made this mod.


This mod changes skills, traits, items, and other effects that would have given reserves in WH2 to instead increase the maximum Winds of Magic pool of relevant armies. This will allow you to increase the maximum total reserve an army can have on the campaign map above 100. This will not have any effect on how quickly (or slowly) that reserve will fill up.


In most cases, I have chosen to give these effects smaller numbers than they would have in WH2: +10 instead of +15, +3 instead of +5, etc., to counterbalance the fact that the WH3 magic system lets you get more out of each point of reserves than WH2's system did.


COMPATIBILITY: As far as I know, this *should* be compatible with pretty much anything, but I make no promises.
