Those that lead are paramount to our survival.

This mod changes leaders to be more important by allowing the player to select from more of them, have more leaders active, and increase their skill rates and caps. Generals, specifically, have received a small bonuses to XP gain. Leaders can also be slightly younger than before.

This mod is NOT a hard defines edit.

Armies
- Implemented new army types: Armored Armies, Commando Forces, and Enforcer Units.
Policies
- Reimplemented the old planetary policies: migration, growth, agriculture, mining, and capacity overload.
These policies have requirements in order to be met: administrators, farmers, miners, ect.
- Implemented new policies to encourage crime, boost trade, give bonus science, and promote emigration from a planet (without stopping growth).
Balance
- Increase the leader pool size to 5.
- Increase the leader capacity increased by 2.
- XP gain increased by 0.1.
- Leader level cap raised to 12.
- Minimum age reduced by 2 years.
- Generals granted a boost to ground combat.
- Increases General and Admiral XP gain by 5-10 (roughly 33% faster).
- Updated skill rank images that go from silver stars to gold stars.
- Leaders gain 3 XP a month now. PASSIVE XP!
