I love this idea, or some variant of it. Rename the Spell of Making to Ragnarok or something, have it force the strongest armies in the world into combat directly, with no turn breaks! The Spell of Making, as it exists in the game, is very disappointing, easy to complete, and frankly, poorly conceptualized.
Spell of Making is stupidly easy to win with. I just play with it off. Really, the only strategy you need is this: 1) find a 3+ essence tile to build a city on, other stats don't matter, though obviously clay mines nearby are handy 2) make it a fortress to buff production and get the silly "move first" level up benefit and Def buffs 3) level a mage champion to get Hydromancy (Gentle Rain) - this step is optional, but it helps if your ci

This happens to me every time I capture Deorcynesse (or whatever the uber wildland city is). The game just stops.
What..? Gilden is one of the strongest factions, imo, and were by far my easiest win out of my 6 games (conquest victory is the only way I play.) In fact, I would say they are the single strongest, as the Life tree is by far the best for the way this game plays, and Gilden gets it from the start on top of everything else (Fire would seem to make a lot more sense thematically, but w/e) - though Pariden was a close second.

Waiting to see a patch note about this, but the way Heart of Fire applies it's attack bonus to each "figure" instead of per stack is a bit ridiculous. +15 attack to a 5 man unit from a no upkeep spell is a bit over the top (3 essence city, could be more or less) Also, the "closer, faster" combat is great, but most combat magic is uselessly weak, overexpensive manawise, and generally boring - particularly the spells that take multiple turns to cast. Out of my 4 games, I
Does this work for Rebellion? The ModDB page says Diplomacy in the description and Rebellion in the sidebar. Edit: Nevermind, found it :)

Just wanted to say thanks for this mod. I was trying to make myself like Maelstrom, but most of the stuff it adds is crazy overpowered, so I was quite happy when I tried this and found it to be decently balanced, and, in fact, more like a vanilla expansion than anything. In fact, the only thing I'm missing from Maelstrom is the stronger pirates and neutral worlds (though this mod has those neutral colonies, I just mean the generic planet guards.. they're still pushovers :)
