myth fitting gods' boosts

Description
gods' boosts seems very random, somehow Ra & Amun boost melee attack while they are not known as war gods.
meanwhile, Set's violence nature was heavily downplayed by casting him as an archer god;
Horus, who could be as fierce as Set, only granted movement boost.

this mod make the combatant gods boost melee,
swapped with the king gods with both mythogical reasons & gamelore reason.


~Gamelore Reason~
Set:
Seti devotes to Set, Seti is a swordman, Set (now melee god) boosts Seti himself as well.
Ra:
Ramesses devotes to Ra, Ramesses is an archer, Ra (now archer god) boosts Ramesses himself as well.


~Mythological Reasons~

Horus:
all-round military boost.

Set:
the god of violence now focuses on melee, smashing your enemies.

Amun:
now he boosts movement. he is a wind god so he could help sea movement.
historically in Battle of Kadesh, Amun division also moved quick and detached from other divisions.

Ra:
old man Ra isn't known as one of the best combatants,
if we must make him a military god,
then boosting range fits best, as the sun is far distanced.
egyptian saw beatles rolling dungball as sun movement,
slingers rolling out stones seems somewhat similar.


this mod can be used half way during a campaign, new effects take place upon new actions.
old shrines may remember old bonuses.


suggestions are welcomed :)

Good reasoning. However, you would need to change the corresponding units too. For example, Ramses Medjay archers should be the best in Egypt (range, speed, reloading) instead of Nubian archers, etc.

In other words, infantry troops and chariots re-balanced according to their ruler and primary God's strengths.

i will look into the rest of Greek gods after adding Athena :)
however i gotta understand their balance first, they got an extra hecatomb thing which i haven't looked into the effects.

Very good art and i have a suggestions!? Maybe only i feel so but the most greek gods beside Poseidon has relative week Boost´s. So can you give them better benfefits too. Because when i play a greek nation i change gods when i reach the egyptians or other´s.?

@tetrion He shot the demon Apop with his spear light power, That is a ranged ability. If you google Amun it literally says The God of Air, at the very top. Derp.

Amun was solar deity and in later period merged with Ra, but I never heard him to be wind god. Ra was by definition fighter as he literally fought every night with Apop for world to continue (while sometimes his doughter Sekhmet mentioned as his fighter instead). Otherwise great mod, esp regarding Set
