Your Custom Mod, I'll make it!
If you'd like to see your own idea for a mod and feature in the game, comment below and I will try to make it so :P.

Hello friend. Two ideas, if you will permit me.

1. Spawning Pools

Based on the ideas of the Seraphon/Lizardmen from Warhammer, spawning pools could be used by empires following the biological ascension path to do things as: create armies of unlimited number independent of current empire population (similar to cloning; bonuses and maluses would need to be thought on to make the mechanic usable and not pointless XD ), creation of pops of extant species within an empire (perhaps in a shorter length of time than traditional pops could grow), and, if you are feeling up to it, perhaps the creation and production of entirely new species from spawning pools that can be tailored by the creating empire at will. Similar to the way the Old Ones of Warhammer created the Seraphon, the empire that masters spawning pool tech could create populations and armies on an industrial-scale and give races and players that want to play the "all-powerful-creator-race-with-legions-of-servants" play-style a few mechanics to play with. There could be a system similar to the Blessed Spawnings of the Lizardmen from Warhammer where certain groups or populations from spawning pools are given a certain percent chance to become a "Blessed Spawning," and can receive a random beneficial trait. The number of Blessed Spawnings would have a higher upkeep than the usual pop or army but would have enough bonuses to make the higher upkeep worth it.

2. Romance Events between leaders/Basic Life Events

This is more of a vague thing, but, the general idea is that there could perhaps be a large number of relationships between the leaders in an empire that affect the gameplay or add to the story that the player is creating. There could be small and big events that affect or afflict the nations at play. Ruling dynasties and imperial governments could have problems with other noble houses living within the empire, they could have hatred and duels within their own borders . . . all manner of different things. Perhaps it might need more narrowing down, but, the freedom of imagination would be quite large.

Just a pair of ideas, but, you might enjoy them.

Thank you kindly for your time.

@The Witness Well then... I don't know what to say apart from the fact that this will be quite the challenge to accomplish. I can't say if I'll be successful but I will sure try to whip up something what is as close to that as possible. As for the time it will take is unknown but not anytime soon as I already have some mod requests queued up. That said, I'll try to do everything as soon as possible; Thanks! and have a good day/night :).

XD You need not put these ideas into actions friend. They are merely ideas. If you would like to put them into action, then I hope you would both enjoy the process of making them and playing around with them. Thank you for even being willing to tackle the challenge. But, feel free to do what you wish. You do good work. You need not have me dictating to you what you must do. Be free, friend.

hmm i have a couple ideas i'd like to see.

First things first as i was actually trying to find someone to do this...are you any good at making patches of other mods or working two larger mods together?

Second for an actual idea xD...i've been wanting to see someone come up with new leviathans. I have yet to see any new leviathan class enemies being made or even thought of. It would be awesome to see some custom stuff
