Effect Particles

I'm not sure if this has been asked before or even if it's already in GAE, can't find anything on the wiki.
Basically, unit particles can be applied to effects so if a unit has a certain effect it gets that unit particle added to it. This would work great with emanations too.
Also perhaps effect projectile particles that are continuously fired based on a value set in the effect whilst the effect is activate. I would use this with my blood units which apply a health drain affect which does negative hp-regen and positive hp-regen recourse effects, with projectile particles I would use <start value="target"/> and <end value="self"/> with tracking so that you would see red blood particles constantly flowing from the enemy units to the my blood units. Could also use a detrimental emanation which uses the lightning particle effects shocking every unit around it, that would look amazing.

There is (or was) some documentation for particles on GAE's effect page on the wiki, but I'm pretty sure it's not implemented yet.

Cool, there might be plans then, would be great to see effects with particles, maybe other things too such as model or sprite overlays. Form example a unit has a curse that slows them down and does some damage over time, this adds a slightly noticeable red smoke to the unit and a skull model hovers above that units head. This would have to be used wisely though a skull model shouldn't be added to an area effect else there will be hundreds of floating skulls everywhere.
I would use all this when working on my hero units in the future.
