'Eavy Metal - A Minor Chaos Overhaul

Description
Have you ever felt that the vanilla balancing didn't make Chosen elite enough compared to other elite infantry like Depth Guard? Or that Aspiring Champions were a missed opportunity? And why does Norsca have a cool roster ability, but the Warriors of Chaos themselves have nothing alike? 'Eavy Metal - Chaos Elite is an attempt to fix these problems while still trying to have a semblance of vanilla balancing.


Features
This mod makes the following changes to the Warriors of Chaos.
1. Chosen are now changed to unit size 60 instead of 80, with minor buffs to their other stats to compensate.
2. Aspiring Champions are now more expensive but stronger in return, having increased splash damage, melee attack, weapon damage, etc.
3. All Lords & Heroes (except Kolek and Sarthorael), Chaos Warriors, Aspiring Champions, Chariots, Knights and Chosen are given the 'Eye of the Gods' ability (see image)
4. Giving Archaon and the Swords of Chaos both 'flaming' and 'magical' properties to their melee weapon.

Future plans are to give the same type of treatment to other factions.
Feedback on balance is welcome, currently this mod straight up buffs certain units so some units could be overperforming.

Special thanks for Cataph's CTT mod for being the inspiration for the Eye of the Gods ability.

@CommieChief yes it applies to the AI as well, and in turn does make the Chaos Invasion a bit more tougher.

quick question, does this apply to the AI Chaos as well, and does the Chaos Invasion a bit tougher?

Huh, cool. I was guessing Chosen needed some unique abilities, like being able to hit more than one unit per attack.

@Green Ramirez Kholek Eye of the Gods was a rule in the tabletop for human champions of Chaos. Kholek is a Dragon Ogre and Sarthorael is a Daemon.

Why doesn't Kholek and Sarthoral receive "Eye of the Gods"? Aren't they also powerful servants of the Chaos Gods?
