About this mod

This is a mod that tweaks various aspects of the game to re-balance it.

Currently I believe this mod makes the game a bit easier than the vanilla version, however I think I did a good job on balancing the adjustments I made to keep the game fairly difficult and still enjoyable.

Permissions and credits
This is a mod that tweaks various aspects of the game to re-balance it. This mod is a very small overhaul that simply re-balances a few things such as hero combat abilities without affecting the actual game-play/difficulty much.

Update log:


Short "TLDR" list of changes:

  • Various hero combat abilities buffed/changed/nerfed.


  • Retreating missions has slightly more consequence.


  • Higher level heroes can do lower level missions.


  • Item/Gold/Heirloom stack sizes changed (mostly increased).

Here's the full list of changes this mod has to offer:
