Expanded Plus Mod
I created a mod compilation based on what I play alot which is the Expanded Next War mod by Chiyu.
Basically I like to play epic games from warriors to assault mechs.
In addition there were some things that bugged me about the vanilla BtS game...holes in the game play, which this mod fixes:
So here it is, enjoy! updated to 1.8 4/17/2010

thanks to the original authors!

Basically I like to play epic games from warriors to assault mechs.
In addition there were some things that bugged me about the vanilla BtS game...holes in the game play, which this mod fixes:
- Deforestation: Players and AIs chop rush forests leading to a late game world barren of forests.
Mod Feature: Ability to replant forests - Insane Global Warming: In long games global warming eventually creates a barren world which is unrealistic and frankly, stupid as hell.
Mod Feature: Lt.Bob's Nuclear Fallout instead of desertification (requires included game core) - Stuck with bad cities and buildings: There was no way to get rid of strategically poor cities and antiquated buildings
Mod Feature: Ability to raze your own cities and buildings at any time - Stuck with foreign religions: There was no way to get rid of foreign religions.
Mod Feature: Inquisition to purge non-state religions - Religion hoarding: Players and AI could found multiple religions therefore creating an artificial advantage and bland single player games
Mod Feature: Limited Religions to only allow founding of one holy city per Civ - Useless desert tiles: Pretty self explainitory.
Mod Feature: Desert solar panels - Other Improvements:
Attitude Icons Game Core Changes (Wolfshanze BtS Game Core)Full support for 40-civs in a single scenario
Solver's 0.19 Unofficial Patch Changes
Lt.Bob's Nuclear Fallout instead of desertification in Global Warming
Better AI 0.35 changes
Aerial Recon Missions can now be intercepted
Fixes for previously broken AI bomber missions and fighter intercept animations
