To start, I have to apolozige that I didn't point out the mod the screens were for. That is the Army of the Light mod. As Zechno suggested, I labeled them

Rancor, the item you saw on one of the screenshots - the sword of the successors of the light (new custom item, needs to be upgraded first to open up the new properties) - is used to transform the units in-game, so nothing is lost in general from the initial game setup (the game spawns inquisitors, archmagi and such as usual in various buildings, you simply buy them and "use" the sword to transform them into fanatics and fire magi). The Ring is also a new item, created by the mod authors. In addition to that, the mod seems to work with already existent save games by adding the sword and the ring when you switch locations - like going from one map to another. Everything you saw is from the Judgment Day Paladin playthrough I was doing, which I had already started.

Still, I didn't manage to fix the problem with the missing images of the light mage - but at least I managed to stop the game from crashing every time it was the light mage's turn.

So each unit is completely new, with its own batch of textures, its own coding. Everything about those is in the mod file.

As for the army of the Dark, I need to fix some stuff about it first. The mod, just like the previous one, has no problems with the russian version, but certainly has some with the english one - duplicate file hashes, missing images, and sometimes even occasional crashes. The good thing about it though, is that it has been already translated. The mod itself works like the army of the Light - giving you a dead book to transform the troops (which works just like the sword of successors to the light) and a ring to upgrade into the Ring of the Ruler that boosts intellect and reduces leadership requirements for undead by 10%.

I'll try to make some screens about the other mod as well - Army of the Dark, provided I find all of the units and manage to get them, because in my paladin game there are no dryads whatsoever, which is one of the units I need to transform.
