Alright, proposed new settings:

NO TECH TRADING WHAT-SO-EVER!

Any nay-sayers?

Those sound good to me.

As for Balance Mod, it makes no changes other than to adjust the point costs for creating your empire, so that many more choices are competetive. You actually have to spend a fair number of points for your advantages - it is no longer an obvious choice to max combat skills, take berzerk, and minimize Physical Strength - all the costs should be more or less right, and taking the best of all the most important things is either not possible, or you'd need to minimize lots of other things. See the description at the mod's home page, which is in my signature below.

I just made and posted a new Version of PvK Balance mod to work seamlessly with the new Gold Patch 4.

No Tech no Population. But do not disable it.

Selling should be allowed....

Problem is if you can trade, you can analyze what is traded, and so there is a huge incentive to do complementary research trades with others.
