    1. PLUGIN DESCRIPTION

*****************************************************************


     TITLE:   Morrowind: Battle Cry        
     VERSION: 1.0

     PLUG-IN TYPE: Tweak
     
     BY:       Fliggerty

Before you run into battle, pull out your weapon and let forth a wild battle cry!
Throughout the history of warfare, the battle cry has been used to instill fear
in the opponent, and inspire heroism within yourself.
With this mod, you will have a "battle cry" key.  When pressed, you will yell out
your cry, and recieve some bonuses to your combat.  There are five possible bonus
combinations you can have:
Battle Cry: Fast and Light
   * Feather 10-100 pts
   * Fortify Speed 10-50 pts
Battle Cry: Mage's Bane
   * Resist Fire 5-50 pts
   * Resist Frost 5-50 pts
   * Resist Magicka 5-50 pts
   * Resist Paralysis 5-50 pts
   * Resist Poison 5-50 pts
   * Resist Shock 5-50 pts
Battle Cry: Mighty Barbarian
   * Fortify Attack 10-100 pts
   * Fortify Endurance 20 pts
   * Fortify Strength 20 pts
Battle Cry: First Strike
   * Invisibility 10-50 pts
   * Chameleon 10-50 pts
   * Jump 10-50 pts
Battle Cry: Bloodlust
   * Blind 10-100 pts
   * Fortify Attack 10-100 pts
   * Fortify Speed 10-100 pts
   * Sanctuary 10-100 pts
Each of these will be in effect for 60 seconds.  Once they wear off though, because an
adrenaline rush always "takes it out of you," contrary effects will then hit you.  
These are generally rather mild, but last 90 seconds.
This mod is dependent upon Morrowind Script Extender (MWSE)


*****************************************************************

    2. INSTALLING THE PLUGIN

*****************************************************************

To install the plugin, unzip the files into the Morrowind/Data Files
directory.  

REQUIREMENTS: Morrowind, Bloodmoon, Tribunal, Morrowind Script Extender (v0.9.2 or later)


*****************************************************************

    3. PLAYING THE PLUGIN

*****************************************************************

From the Morrowind Launcher, select Data Files and check the box
next to the Morrowind Battle Cry.esp file.
Launch Morrowind via the MWSE shortcut.

The first time you load this mod a setup ring will be added to your inventory.
When equipped, you will be prompted to choose which key will activate the battle cry.

The standard duration of the positive spell effects is 60 seconds, with the negative
spell effects lasting 50% longer.  If you want to change this duration, in the console
enter the command set fl_bc_duration to # (where # is the duration of the positive
spell effects.)

To use this mod, you must either have your weapon drawn or a spell ready
to be cast.  Press the button, and if you have at least 25 magicka available, you will
hear your character "yell" something, and the spell effects of the battle cry will
then be effective for a time.

    6. CONFLICTS

*****************************************************************

I have tried to avoid any conflicts with any common mods.  I may have missed something
here or there, if I did please let me know!

One issue I have noticed in testing is with the setup script.  On occasion, it won't
register the key you choose until you press several other keys.  If this happens,
enter "set fl_bc_setup_done to 0" into the console and the setup ring will be added
back to your inventory.

Please reports any bugs or problems at downloads.php?view=bug_tracker

Too many right now.  Still compiling the list.
But to start it off:

Wasabi: Suggested this idea on my forums, also tested.
ChazzM: Tested this for me.
sandman101: Tested this as well.
ps33: Always my scripting mentor.  While having nothing directly to do with this mod, nevertheless I would not have known how         to use MWSE without his infinite patience and support.
FreshFish: For giving us MWSE.
CDCooley: For continuing the support of MWSE
Bryss Phoenix: As always, infinite support and patience!
Everybody else who has always been supportive of modders in general.
