Gwen’s Starter Techs 1.6.1 Stellaris
Gwen’s Starter Techs 1.6.1 Stellaris
1) This mod adds a mix of species traits and civics that grant you techs at the start of the game.
Species Tech Traits: These traits consist of all of the techs that cost 380 research or less and have no prerequisites. Each one costs a single trait point. You may only get one from physics, society, and engineering.
Civic Techs: Each one grants techs totaling around 1k research points and gives a boost as per the Mechanist utopia civic. They cannot be swapped out and they are all mutually exclusive.
I allowed for one to grant the ascenion technology with no other bonus. An early game boost with a late game lack of a civic.

Gwen’s Misc Leader Traits
This mod adds over 80 leader traits. I based them as much as possible on what I could gather of the inherent math of the game.
Gwen’s Leader Flaws and Virtues
This mod adds a flaw and virtue system to the game. Flaws grant an additional 1-2 trait points to a leader. Virtues cost 2 to 3 trait points and are as good as 3 or 4 traits. This is designed around the game’s default of 1 trait point of leaders and 2 for rulers.
