Lightning Strike Un-nerfed

Description
Introduction
With the release of WH3, CA basically came out and said they don't want us having fair fights anymore. Gone were the days of being able to dismantle four armies one by one honorably, all because the ability to pursue honor was locked behind three skill points and too much honor now makes all of your men really tired.

I say no more! Honorable battle can once again be joined without your men falling over their own swords out of exhaustion.

Features
  • Fatigue penalty of 15000 removed for the initiator of a lightning strike.
  • Morale penalty for being on the receiving end of a lightning strike increased to 8.

If demand is super high and/or annoying, I'll see about wasting 2 hours replacing the new lightning strike skill with the old one for every character.

Compatibility
Fully save game compatible.
Compatible with any mod that does not change the campaign variables for "night" battles.

Known Issues
None.

No, it doesn't. It does not even touch skill trees.

Doesn't matter whether it's the player using it or the AI. CA added a fatigue penalty to lightning strike and reduced the morale penalty from -8 to -6 in the same patch. The scope of this mod has nothing to do with buffs to the AI - vanilla or otherwise - only the reversion of specific nerfs to lightning strike.

Don't like that? The modding tools are freely available on the internet and easy enough to use that a child could mod Total War. I implore you to use them.

.. I mean when the player is using it.
Additional note: I wanted this to force 1v1 battles at all times. Ive since learned that you cant use LS when defending - -. multi army battles are very unfun, unbalanced and tanks my performance. Auto resolve almost allways favors your multi stacks too, further destroying the game balance. Multi army battles just suck in so many ways, poor design. we need a mod that forces 1v1 only. With enough mods buffing and fixing the AI, 1v1 battles can be actually challenging, even in the late game.
Im too advanced of a player to play on anything but very hard, But than the game just gets boring and tedious. Just a mass stack auto resolving fest. I want to actually play the game.

If a difference of two morale is OP to you, then you have other, bigger problems.

Removing fatigue penalty is what i want. The moral penalty however... Seems really OP. Id like it to be a normal battle, this is all.

No reason for it to have stopped working. It's a single variable.

damn, is this mod still update or still working? I tired being for one vs many stacks as same times for being "Exhausted".
