AFC Mod (updated 9-26-16)
This file is now part of the BOTF All in One 1.0.0 installer
How fast do you think you can beat Error Correcting Mod?
My version has some changes and i was almost killed starting on level 1, now i had 700+ moves and 15 races on my side and i still cant beat them.
Major population mod on all planets, major races and even minor races (start out with 160-240 home planet there no long a pushover to take over)
Orbital batterys are double price, energy and fire power but most planets can only run 10 at a time max)
Federation had a moral mod since they were at a disavantage.
When i Attacked a planet with 8 orbital batterys i lost over a dozen sovereigns in first attack so each planet you go after will be a real war.
Anyone want to test this out?

Re: How easy can you beat BOTF
hehe sounds challenging
I'll try a level 1 large map Error Correction mod game as well then.
PS: Using feds to attack other majors is a big misstake anyway *cough* Klingons!!! *cough*

Re: How easy can you beat BOTF
what about sharing a 1st turn savegame for such a challenge?
+ including modifications if used
that would become much more comparable

Re: How easy can you beat BOTF
Interesting mod. Starting on tech 1 as the Roms I have to say the AI is somewhat better, they all ally against me because I am too powerful. Also, a pretty interesting thing happened that I dont think has ever happened in any game of BotF ive played. See screenshot below.

Re: How easy can you beat BOTF
Also another interesting note, after both me and the attacking ship were destroyed, the outpost lady (voice) said "Our enemies have failed to destroy us" but the outpost was still gone. This may be inherent of vanilla though.
Re: How easy can you beat BOTF
hmmm I must try this when I have some time! Defo need a sesh vs good AI

Re: How easy can you beat BOTF
Sorry to double post, but you might want to look into slightly decreasing ship maint cost (or increasing trade goods output), especially on cruisers. Feds have like 100 cruisers and Im in defecit trying to shovel around 6 cruisers, 11 strikers, and 13 destroyers. Not exactly a walk in the park. AND this is with me intel bombing the Ferg economy, grabbing about 10k every 6-8 turns or so.
Re: How easy can you beat BOTF
What is the Error Correcting Mod? I never herd of it.
