Practiced Initiator Trait and adjustment

[Dragon5e]

The starting adjustment was the Initiator level adjustment from Path of War. When I tried to modify it I ran onto serious problem. Took me a week to figure how that code actually worked. This snippet won't work for a practiced initiator trait.

field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[cIL].value = maximum[field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[cIL].value +2 , #totallevelcount[])

There's 2 reasons. One is the timing at Post level 9. The bonus need to be added here at this time but you cannot pull the cIL value until past 9 when the value get calculated. That rendered the above code moot.

I rewrote the code to include a class so I could run a levelcount on it. With that I could calculate what the cIL need to be for a bonus to be added. I also eliminated the need to pull cIL which means I rewrote the bonus as a addition not a replacement. This mean you need a pick on hero to choose the maneuver and class to work properly.
