Because I like improvisational engineering, mad-max style makeshift-destruction and because of the little something inside all guys that desires to root around a pile of industrial scrap and find some great treasure, (or maybe its just some irrational attraction to girls with English accents) I give you:

*******Puke's JUNKYARD WARS Mod Version 2.0 for SEIV GOLD 1.78*******

Made for the Space Empires IV Play-by-Web community at seiv.pbw.cc, and with special thanks to all the folks on the Shrapnel Games Intel Forums at www.shrapnelgames.com this is the first Version of the mod. Details below:

- made for space empires 4 Version 1.41 on 2001.07.13

- Tech levels edited to remove Applied Research from the list of starting techs, max level set to 0.

- Applied Research no longer exists as a technology in the game (new since v2.0, older Versions allowed AR to be removed at game start).

- Default AI construction types modified to remove research facilities from the Homeworld facility build lists

- Planet ability lists edited to give a vastly increased likelihood for Ancient Ruins to be found, tech levels recovered from ruins has been increased.

- Krsqk has created a superb extended tech tree for use with Version 2.0 of this mod, and it greatly extends the playability of Junkyard Wars games. Krsqk is great, everyone thank him.

The author of this mod disclaims responsibility for any damage it causes, such as your monitor exploding, house burning down, family life falling apart, job loss, loss of sleep, physical and or psychological trauma, the adoption of any pacifist tendencies or the wearing of tie-died clothing and/or crystal jewelry. If the user of this mod begins to believe him/herself to be the reincarnation of Humphrey Bogart, that is indeed the responsible of the creator of this mod, and is a direct result of subliminal Messages placed within this very text file. Furthermore, I claim a 2.5% royalty on any profits you make from the recreation of any Bogart movies, as they are a direct result of the psychosis I have so carefully induced in you.

USE THIS MOD FREELY AND UNRESERVEDLY, Change it if you want. Don't bother to ask. Don't bother to give me credit (But give Krsqk credit if you steal his cool expanded tech tree), I don't really care and I'd rather not have random people emailing me about it anyway. HAVE FUN!
