This looks like the same issue I ran into with making patches from the I500 scaling changes. The simplest thing to do, as lukep said, is probably to just manually paste the new tactical tables into the appropriate talent definition files.

This is a potential downside to converting an addon using hooks to a patch: you have to unravel all of the hooked code and place it where it should be if it was included from the start.

I kind of wish the core game were coded to use hooks more.
Check out my addons: Nullpack (classes), Null Tweaks (items & talents), and New Gems fork.

In the dumb ai patch why the healing_talents table ? why not use the talent's is_heal field ??
This is very very ugly :)
Also a static table lke taht you should decalre it as local outside the function
so it's not reconstructed needlessly each time

Also altering an engine file to ahve tome specific bits is beyind evil, it's .. naughty!
Dont do it, redefine the AI in a tome specific file instead

Not sure how to do this. Do I copy talented.lua from

...\game\engines\default\engine\ai\talented.lua

to
...\game\modules\tome\ai\talented.lua

and the modify the new copy?
