More Civics For for Stellaris
More Civics For for Stellaris
Mod adds several new civics to the game based on simple suggestions on the Stellaris suggestions board. They should be complete and relatively balanced. Be aware that this mod will likely not be compatible with many other mods since it must change many of the vanilla files to implement the more interesting civics and balance changes.
Balance suggestions and discussion is highly welcome. I’m trying to do some balance testing myself, but I’m only one person and can only do so much for something like this which takes a lot of time to do. Also, I accidentally played a bunch of testing on hard difficulty, which I have to throw out the window and start again for.

Diplomatic Tradition (Non-Xenophobe, +10 general opinion, +15% trust growth, +25 max trust)
