Magic book, Mass Dispel spell

Preliminary checks

• [X] I've checked that there aren't other open issues on the same topic.

Describe the problem requiring a solution

Dispel and Mass Dispel spells have the same icon currently.

Describe the possible solution

Fheroes2 engine needs a new icon for mass dispel. All other mass spells have nice generated icons: But using the same approach for small stars of Dispel icon looks not well.

Maybe we need a special approach for generating the icon, where shifting could be done only for a certain elements of the icon (I mean only for larger stars without shifting small ones). New icon also could be done by improving density of star images. Or both approaches could be combined in some way...

Departing from the other mass-spells is I guess reasonable in this case. Just adding more start to the original image (and not shiftig the stars) i think i the best approach, it's makes it more visualy clear that the Mass Dispel is derived from the Dispel.

I've made this version for the Mass Dispel spell, I think it works, you say it ;)

Hello, @AnoKusoGaki ! Your version is well done, but has a few disadvantages. First of all it has a highly distinct form. It looks like an absolutely different spell and has too small correlation with the initial spell. Its form made of a stars arranged into a strict line makes an impression, that this spell rather creates a star ring on a battlefield. Acceptable for some custom spell, but for "Mass dispel" I expect something a bit closer to the initial spell. Secondly, you've used only two star patterns, while the original spell has one more star type. Using 3 star types makes the spell icon look more complete and elaborate. Could you, please, try to enhance your implementation of this icon?

Would adding a bigger star in the same style in the center help differentiate it? It's called "Mass" after all so a massive star could maybe get the message of it being bigger and better across. Maybe take inspiration from the battlefield effect?
