adding hlas to physical damage dealers

Is there a way to add HLAs to classes like fighters/thieves in the same way that they can be added to casters? 

If they are added to a .cre file.. will the NPCs actually use them?

Can't edit main post.. but through further inspection.. looking at the SCS readme...

'High-level Abilities

  • genai/hla_choices/hla_always.2da: list of fighters and thieves who get to use High-Level Abilities at TACTICAL difficulty.' 

From my understanding.. if I add the .cre files to that file...  All fighter/thief orientated creatures that have an assigned kit will then get said HLAs and be able to use them with the assigned SCS script at any difficulty above TACTICAL, right?

Levels for fighters and thieves

  • genai/level_override/bg1.2da: overrides levels for BG1 fighters/thieves. Creatures should be listed in non-TUTU form, i.e. without the initial "_".
  • genai/level_override/bg2.2da: overrides levels for BG2 fighters/thieves.

If I want to say add +3 levels to all fighter/thieves kits across the board, I then have to add all those .cre files to that file?

So through further testing, HLAs are able to be added to all physical damage dealers that have a kit assigned to them if they meet the threshold for it and the difficulty slider is where it needs to be.

With this mod: https://forums.beamdog.com/discussion/32334/level-adder-v0-5
Levels can be added to each individual class the same way it works for mages/priests under the stratagems.ini file with:
mage_level_add = 0
mage_level_scale = 100
priest_level_add = 0
priest_level_scale = 100
 

This fixes 50% of the thing trying to be accomplished, however there still doesn't seem to be an area to lower the HLA threshold for NPCs?
In the .2da files using nearinfinity, there is lunumab.2da.. this edits the range that HLAs can be received by party invited characters or players. This does not edit the HLA tables for NPCs in the game. 

Where/what needs to be edited to change the level threshold that NPCs receive HLAs?
I.E. Instead of being able to access HLAs at level 20, they are now able to access them at level 10.. in the same sense lunumab.2da works:
