Effects and Their Attributes Thread - Dominions 4: Thrones of Ascension

Update (2013/12/31): Here are the various tables related to the effects used by spells and weapons in Dominions 4.03.

Effects:

• All effect numbers seem to be clustered into a table, numbered 0 to 120. Adding 10000 to the effect number to change a battlefield effect into a ritual effect is just that: addition. For example, consider effects 1 (Battlefield Summon Monser) and 10001 (Ritual Summon Monster), 21 (Battlefield Summon Commander) and 10021 (Ritual Summon Commander), 23 (Battlefield Bless/Buff) and 10023 (Ritual Bless/Buff), 81 (Enchant Battlefield) and 10081 (Enchant World; i.e, put up a global), 101 (Battlefield Change Age) and 10101 (Ritual Change Age).
• Some spells use effect numbers, such as 4011, 2003, 3007, etc.... These are all cloud/lingering battlefield effects and the multiples of 1000 may be linked to the duration of the effects.

Effect Modifiers:

• These numbers may be added together for use as the #spec value of spells.
• These are not directly specifiable for weapon effects, but the equivalent weapon-modding commands are noted, where known.
• Thanks to Edi, DrPraetor, and Wolfs_SA for help with these.

Anonymous Events:

• Provide these numbers as the #damage argument for #effect 10042.

Blesses/Buffs (Type I):

• Provide these numbers as the #damage argument for #effect 10.
• Thanks to DrPraetor and Wolfs_SA for help with these.

Blesses/Buffs (Type II):

• Provide these numbers as the #damage argument for #effects 23 and 10023.
• Thanks to DrPraetor and Wolfs_SA for help with these.

Enchantments:

• Provide these numbers as the #damage argument for #effects 81, 10081, 10082, and 10084. (And, possibly others.)

Other Planes:

• Provide these numbers as the #damage argument for #effect 108.

Special Damage Types:

• Add these numbers together for the desired special damage types and provide them as the #damage argument for #effect 11.

Special Unique Summons:

Relational Database (Has all of the effects in tables and provides relations to the weapons and spells tables.)

While making the data dumps for weapons and spells, I realized that they had effect numbers and some mask values in common with one another. This has led me to make a separate data dump for effects. The dump linked below contains a number of tables, including all values of #spec used by vanilla Dominions 4 and a complete cross-index of spells and weapons by effect number. "Wpn" means "weapon" and "Spl" means "Spell" in the dump.

Here is the effects dump:
