Default Anyone play without mods?

I don't use whole mods my self. I make tweeks to data files. Decrease cost here, change size there. Maybe take some ideas from other mods like new systems or formations but don't ever realy add a full blown mod. Who else plays it like this?

That's basically how I play but I'm intrigued with the Proportions mod.

Evader, I think this is how most mods originated: some tweak here and there, add something, balance some weapons. You will not notice before you'll have full Devnull mod in your hands

Proportions is indeed very different. It turns whole SE4 gameplay upside down and it is obvious that PvK made it in revolutionary, not evolutionary way.

A quick survey of my Savegame folders:

Straight v1.67 - seven solo games, 1 Play-By-Web, two scenarios (which are technically mods).

v1.67 + TDM-ModPack - 3 solo games

v1.67 + DevNullModGold,
v1.67 + my Hypermaze,
v1.67 + my Hypermaze plus experimental tweaks,
v1.67 + Pirates & Nomads,
v1.67 + Proportions - 1 solo game each

v1.49 + TDM-ModPack - 1 PBW

I still find the unmodded game interesting enough that I don't feel a strong urge to explore the tech mods.

Most PBW games use vanilla SE4.
