HISTORY--

v5.1
1. Added intro screen

v5
1. Fixed description of computer mounts to remove old antivirus description.
2. Added colony module. (Idea is that nanobots allow colonies to leave with less equipment and supplies which reduces the size and
cost of the colony module).

General Mod Information:
MountMod-AJC.zip-
Is for new games started in Version 1.78.

Whats in this Mod:

Mount Modification for Base game. No technology changes. However technology will have to be researched to discover the new
mounts.

Ships become much tougher in this mod. I compensated by incorporating miniturization into all of the advanced weapon mounts and
increasing the damage dealt. To look at the mod look at the CompEnhancement.txt file. This file can be found in:

Space Empires IV\MountMod-AJC\Data\CompEnhancement.txt

Note:
Shield Generator mounts come in two types, the first level will only require you to research level 3 shields before the 1st generation
shield mounts come into play for bases, 400+ KT ships and 200+ KT weapon platforms.

Each mount type has unique tech requirements. The technology requirements for the new mounts are spread throughout the tech
tree. Here is a breakdown of the tech levels that are required to activate the various stages of the new mounts.
