Mai's Little Addons

Adds many little extra additions to vanilla airships! A new governor, completely reworked conquest balancing, multiple new monster encounters, a few new modules, new names for places and four entire beautiful new AI factions designed by the one and only Bonible aka Con! Also adds all the content from Mai's Difficulty Rework!

Reworks the game's difficulty to make the difficulties more intuitive for new players, and removes the frustratingly unbalanced higher difficulty spikes. Courtesy of the legendary Stevenbert Gregley Pinefield of the Abraxas Federation. Adds the following changes. Nerfs AI factions to prevent dogpiling and removes unfair mechanics. Harder difficulties are now designed to be difficult, but not unfairly so. Normal Difficulty is now actually balanced to be playable by the average casual player. Higher difficulties will require more optimized airships and tactics instead of requiring exploits, netdecked airships and cheap cheese. Players now do not start with an airship, but during the starting age, all production is increased to 250% (even for AI), which massively reduces the boring wait at the start where everyone builds their markets and constructs their first ships.

Revamps the balancing in Conquest Mode to try and make larger empires not as viable and encourage players not to just steamroll everything by increasing unrest and spy presence. I know this is not for everyone. People want to conquer and become huge. But at some point the game just sort of plays itself. Sure there are the big endgame monster nests, but I just feel like the game stops being fun when you control half the map, cleaning up the scraps of whatever monsters and inferior nations are left. In my opinion, there should be penalties to running a huge nation. This will make it feel more like actual politics, where you need to make sure you don't take too much land as to become disliked or hated. You can conquer a lot of nations, but you are probably going to be hated by, no matter if inside your nation or outside.
