Everyday Hero - Rarer Heroes

Goal:

All these everyday heroes, getting hired for peanuts, never asking for anything other than their sign-on pay, marching to their deaths on command, just to be replaced moments later by the next everyday hero.
Not anymore..

This mod aims to make heroes more valuable by making them rarer, and have an ongoing cost of investment. If you want to get your money’s worth, you’ll have to work on keeping them alive and levelling them up. If you let them die, you might be waiting a while before you can find a replacement.

You also have a little less flexibility in which heroes approach your realm with only 3 choices of hero each time you have an opportunity to hire.


Compatibility:

Requires base game only.

This won't be compatible with any other mod that alters Hero upkeep or spawn rates.

Loads at Priority 0.

You have more time to ‘save’ if you didn’t have funds ready to hire a hero when they appeared.

Hero Spawn Delay Variation (for all spawn waves): From 2 to 5
Hero spawns timing is a lot more unpredictable, can vary between every 20 to 30 turns.

Max Spawned Heroes Spawn Wave (various – see below):
Wave: 1 From 2 to 3
Wave: 3 From 4 to 3
Wave: 4 From 5 to 3
Wave: 5 From 1 to 2

Hero Upkeep Cost: From 0 to 6
