That's right, I need to account for God as a warrior. Thanks. I'll think about it. Some kind of bonus to the Strategy rolls in Mass Combat? I haven't read those rules for a while.

I was actually thinking of a much, much more general thing, which is the blessing of an endavour with some kind of fortune or luck. It could well be a Viking raid, or a crusade (or a battle during a crusade), but could also be something non-martial.

Or the blessing of individuals or groups or communities (the later defined by PR), not limited to any specific endavour, but of course still with a limited duration in time. And, to my mind, being more badly in need of the effects being subtler than is perhaps the case for Bless Endavour.

How about Luck for 1 group roll?
So in Mass Combat you could reroll 1 bad one.
For a small community you could reroll on a fortune and disaster table, or for the harvest or some monthly roll that overall affects the community.

Or maybe Higher Purpose (endeavor) for those directly involved?

Yes, those are good suggestions. Higher Purpose may be too powerful. I think One-Time-Use Luck will tend to be of less world impact.
