Space Empires IV: Data/Sound/Graphic

[Urendi Maleldil]

Several changes, bugfixes, and one new Master trait.

The Small Ship Masters racial trait makes small ships more useful throughout the game. Different small hull sizes with additional abilities will perform specialized roles better than large generic ships. Special small ship mounts will also supplement the additional hull sizes, letting you cram a hull full of electronics, enhance weapon accuracy, and increase shielding.

Also fixed some major balance issues with the Assimilation Masters.

Here's the latest version of the Masters Mod. There have been a small handful of bug fixes, but the big news is: TWO NEW MASTERS TRAITS!

The SW Masters trait adds Star Wars tech, and the Force masters adds powerful Jedi & Sith techs, and Force powers.

I've also added Atrocities's fabulous Imperial and Rebel ship sets. Their AI has been fully customized to use the new traits.
