Strategies for SEIV

[inigma]

I'm looking for the best strategies mod, and didn't know which one to incorporate into my games.

Does anyone know if Ultimate Strategies Mod is compatible with 1.91?

Do you have a list of favorite strategies you employ?

And I was wondering if I were to install the Ultimate Strategies Mod, if I could immediately start to use them in my current games?

USM is compatible with 1.91, but was apparently never updated to include the data file changes of 1.91. If you install it and load SE4 with USM enabled (either via Path.txt or the Mod Launcher) and create a new game, you will have the new strategies available. You can add the USM strategies to any mod by copying the DefaultStrategies.txt file from USM\Data to the Data folder of the mod, or even the stock game. The other important file from USM is Formations.txt. However, it is generally advisable to not make any modifications to the default Data folder. All races installed in the stock game will work in USM.

Perhaps I should update USM with the 1.91 data files...

I wonder if we all would have to update our stuff to Deluxe when it comes out.

There are no expected changes to the data files, so mods are almost certainly going to be compatible as is.

At worst, there might be new optional things added, and everybody might have to reinstall the imagemod packs.
