Mechanic Changes

Specialists now defend and attack at 4 points respectively.

The explore formula is revised. It is now significantly cheaper to explore at smaller sizes compared to both previous ages. 

The reduced gains protection afforded to smaller kingdom when attacked by larger kingdoms will be removed when the smaller kingdom reaches 50 points on the meter.

Towards a similar end, when both kingdom reach max hostility the option to declare will appear regardless of the kingdoms networth.

Winning a war will not grant any honor taken from your opponents honor pool. Monarchs will instead be able to set a kingdom reward for winning wars, this reward will be honor or land and will be a combination based on both kingdoms relevant resources.

Intra kingdom hits will remove some honor from the attacked province.

Attacks in war will not take extra acres from the exploration pool.

Entering Fortified stance will result in -50% magic and thief operation effectiveness and gains. This kicks in immediately for the fortified kingdom and slides in over 24 hours for the rest.

* Sabotage damage mods will increase the thievery damage cap, watchtowers will decrease it.

** halfling soldiers will be double networth (.ie 3NW) due to their higher power.
