Not if you give them the RAM strat
Well I was refering to non-combatants, but yes, that is true.

However, other USM data files will break a multiplayer game with file match error.
The only actual USM data file that will break mods is Formations.txt. Several eye candy files (e.g: EmpireNames.txt) are modified, which do not affect savegames at all.

As far as the Formations File and MOST USM DATA files - this *may* be too intrusive when overwritten to another MODS AI.
Moreover, perhaps conflict with most Components and Facilities that will break many MODs outright.
Such files are from stock SE4, and are not meant to be inserted into other mods... only DefaultStrategies.txt and Formations.txt are, plus possibly the eye candy files.
