This is my addition to Fall from Heaven 2 (all work done by the Fall from Heaven team of course).
MIMM has taken several different modmod author's (Sureshot and Xienwolf) ideas for building improvements anywhere and tries to balance them for varied gameplay. Since most endgame scenarios end up with just farms and mines, this mod is here to provide a little spice and try to make the improvements be more exciting. Future improvements inculde adding upgrades and balancing for civics/techs.
NOTE: To use this module, unzip to the directory in which you installed FfH2.
Please give feedback here.

v1.2 for .31c
NEW IMPROVEMENTS
Engineered Ritual Nodes
- Able to discover raw mana (1/9000)
- Gives + 1 unhappy
- Buildable at Sorcery (with workers)
- Upgrades to Greater Ritual Node
Greater Ritual Nodes
- Able to discover raw mana (1/4500)
- Gives + 3 unhappy
- Upgrades to Unstable Ritual Node
Unstable Ritual Nodes
- Able to discover mana (1/1500)
- Gives + 5 unhappy
Note, new nodes must be pillaged before they can be turned into usable nodes.
Unhappy keeps them from being spammed but yet allows players to discover more mana if they are patient.
These abilities are given to workers as an abstraction and for simplification reasons. I'm assuming a society with the knowledge of Sorcery wouldn't need a whole unit of adepts to build a ritual node and the adepts are still needed to build the actual node.
