Kislev Tech Institute of Bears and Magic

Description
Short Description:

This mod improves Kislev's techs and research. The goal is to make the scientific system a little better - more universal and natural. Now (with this mod) not only particular Kislev units benefit from some narrowly focused techs, but everyone else as well, including other races (to a lesser degree, though). Thus, for example, those who like to mix Kislev fighters with warriors of other races will improve their armies to some extent.

Lore Description:

Alarming news from the battle-fronts began to reach you... As the chief military advisor, it's your responsibility to sort things out before it's too late.

Lately, we have been receiving many letters from our generals complaining about the impracticality of our new technologies. Those letters are of different lengths, styles, and with different amounts of swearing, but the meaning is roughly the same.
First of all, our new technologies are of no use to all Kislev's natural allies - the pathetic Imperials, the effeminate, delicate elves, and even those stubborn short ones. Moreover, some of tech advancements are turn out almost useless even for us, for kislev warriors! Because, damn it, the mentioned techs are, intended only for certain “elite” combat units... which many of our armies don't even have or have very little of.

In order to solve the problems that have arisen, you have decided to do the only right thing - to directly contact the head of the Kislev Technological Institute of Bears and Magic... To the boyarina Kira Zadorozhnaya, a former ice witch. Despite the fact that you are somewhat wary of these ladies, there is no other way out. You personally intend to arrive there and strictly supervise the implementation of the necessary improvements.

Before departure, you have sent a letter with notification and an explanation of the nature of the issues that have come to light.

" Greetings ....

..... with great respect .....

....with great joy....

.... your support fills our hearts ....

... You are like the light of the sun for us ....

..... without you we would have been completely lost ....

.... we hope for equally great works in the future .....

However, I must report some issues that came to light and a number of very desirable improvements. For example, we should try to extend some narrowly focused technologies to all warriors in our armies and even to allied warriors (of course, only in our armies). As was agreed at the high council, we must and will respect and reckon our allies with whom we, shoulder to shoulder, fight against the chaos - against stupid, insane Norsca, stinking, rotting Nurgles and mad Khorns fanatics. But at the moment, our new techs are of no use for all Kislev's natural allies - the pathetic Imperials, the effeminate, delicate elves, and even for those stubborn short ones. Moreover, some of tech advancements are turn out not very useful even for us, for Kislev warriors! Because the mentioned techs are, intended only for certain “elite” combat units... But we can't rely solely on, say, bear riders and the Tsar's Guard. In fact, many of our armies have none of those units at all. Some armies have very few.
It is very difficult, you know, to provide for an army with many units of the tzar's guards and bear riders. Can you imagine how much they eat? I mean bears. Ah, what the heck, this, actually, also applies to the tzar guards too.
We all love bears - they seem to us as beautiful, cute creatures. But they are so sweet only as long as they are well-fed.
One general I know, who had many units of bear riders, admitted that he is much more afraid of they own hungry bears than of Norsca, Nurgles, and Khorns combined.
Given the above reasons and others, - i repeat again and i just can't stress it enough, - we must try to expand narrowly focused technologies (at least to some extent) to all Kislev and allied units (Of course, only in our own armies)

..... with great respect .....

....with great joy....

....looking forward with tremble to meeting you....

.... sincerely yours chief military advisor, gospodar ****************"


Game Implementation:

1. Some of the specific techs have been changed so that they give an additional small buff to all units, along with the old narrow improvements. For example: instead of +10 armor for Tsar Guard units, the technology gives +8 armor for Tsar Guard units and +2 for everyone. So, for Tsar Guard units, essentially - nothing has changed, but everyone else has received a small buff.
2. Some all-around buffs to weak techs

Positive features of the modification:

1. Very light, very easy
2. NO SCRIPTING, just a small data change
3. At last, the Kislev techs became strong enough, and you will be properly prepared for the battle against Chaos!
4. Save Game Compatible. You can safely activate or deactivate this mod anytime.

Yes I know but she only has HER own small box. Rest of kislev have a way bigger tech

I just started Ostankya campaign - and guess what? She has ALL of Kislev tech + her own. So I don't think she really needs any rework. Her tech seems pretty strong.
Sin 8 Apr @ 12:38am 
Not too sure atm but maybe more tech for the "Incarnate Elemental of Beasts" ? Only gets two tech atm that actually changes anything.

I just find it weird that Ostankya gets one specific box and rest of Kislev have this massive tech tree for their stuff

While I'm thinking... Do you have any specific ideas? Which technologies need buffs (or nerfs, maybe)? Maybe some specific changes in mind?
Sin 7 Apr @ 11:43pm 
I would MUCH appreciate it!! #JusticeForMotherOstankya

CA has done her so dirty from the start, then the nerfs, and barely added for her in Kislev update.
She deserves alot more for such a cool themed LL

No, I don't think so. I'll check hag mother tech. And maybe i will update this mod with Ostankya tech too.
Sin 7 Apr @ 8:44pm 
Does this improve Mother Ostankya's tech area too? pretty sad she only gets one and half tech box of stuff
