Leaky shields/armor

maintenance on some facilities
Troops are really really nice (and important).
ship costs go up as the cube of the size, but maintenance is flat-rate independent of size.

Just no AIs, but multiplayer is fun.
Lol, i just remembered we havn't run a turn in weeks...Guess i got caught up in fixing PBC II

I'll see if i can remember the address and upload a turn

I have been told that Adamant Mod is a good mod.

Thanks! Yeah, I remember PBW, it was in it's cradle when I left. I haven't really decided if I'm really back yet though, just peeking through the door to see what's what. Will probably pick up a mod or two and give them a whirl and see if I get drawn in again or not.

If you go with Adamant Mod, don't hold your breath on the performance of the AI. It is not spectacular.

I am in the process of writing a *features list* for the mod.

Ok, is there a good mod that focuses on improving the AI but changes little to nothing else? I did some modding myself back in the day to improve the AI for my own use but I'd like to think someone has come up with something better by now!

You want the TDM Modpack, which does nothing but add a few new formations and heavily improve the AI. No new techs or anything.
