It seems like the surplus of skill points, combined with how powerful skills are in Warhammer compared to past TWs, has made the great amount of them given by Radious' mod feel like cheating. It also robs characters of any real individuality. I mean. There are so many skill points given, that until recently, you were getting more than you could spend. That seems off.

I think Warhammer demands a different approach to skill points than to past Radious mods of past TW games, given the far more involved and important role they play.

Something more elegant might have been 1 skill point per level, for levels 1-10, 2 skill point per level for levels 11-20, and 3 skill points per level from level 21-30.

That would still give 30 more skill points than the base game allows for (allowing for 10 extra maxed skills). It would give only 20 skill points less than the mod currently gives out, and is still probably hugely overpowered, but it won't feel completely ridiculous.

I think there needs to be a balance between Radious' overall philosophy of more everything (more money, more armies, more units, more skill points) and not completely trivializing some of the more important underlying mechanics of the game, such as having a slight element of choice in training up your lords and agents.

Right now, all of my lords are pretty much finished by level 15-18ish at the latest, with both combat and economic potential maxed out. Every level after that is just choosing a random thing I don't really want and maxing it out.
