The mods required should be attached to this post. I unfortunately had to make a very slight change to the CBM mod as well, which was the final problem I wanted to run by Burnsaber, so you will need this altered CBM mod as well now. Didn't want to do this, but the alternative might have had some effects on late game (which may well have been good effects actually, but not my call) as Seraphs could well have been relegated down the wish list a bit!
The two mods are called...
- Sentient Machines
- Sentient Machines CBM 1.5
Not ideal having two mods, but it seems to work ok (although only quickly tested). The two mods could easily be integrated, but that would have taken me some time since I would have been tip-toeing around carefully in fear of breaking some of CBM's changes. So thought it best to use two mods so the game can start asap.
I'm guessing you will also need the single age mod. which I think this is the link for.

But I'm sure Burnsaber will put everything you need on the status page now that the mod is finished.
Please shout out (post or PM) as soon as possible if you have any problems creating your Pretenders. I've checked that the creation of each Pretender is possible with these mods active, but I might have gone blind and not noticed one had Earth 6 instead of Earth 7 for example. So please report any problems you find, as I've tried to be as tight as possible with spare design points remaining with each build (since that makes it harder to know the magic paths on other Pretenders)
Thanks again everyone, and best of luck to all
