I would like to add the USM specific files that would not break AI Campaign MOD to the AIC Extra Folder as a zip option - so AIC players may enjoy your fine work And without the possible USM install errors.
Why not just build it in directly? The couple of extra formations in AIC can be added to the USM file. The only change to the stock strategies is that ships always break formation with USM strategies, which is better than staying in formation and losing dozens of chances to fire at the enemy.

Which is why I did not mod them... except for RepairPriorities.txt, which technically is a strategy...

Also to mention (USM RepairPriorities.txt) may not be in the AI Players best interests.
Yes it is. The only change is that construction components are repaired first, so that repairs happen faster overall. Everything else is in the stock order. How does this not help the AI?
