Machines & Robot Expansion Continued

This mod is a continuation of XVCV's "Machines & Robot Expansion" , which is/was loved by many. A great addon for Machine empire enthusiasts which I loved playing.

Unfortunately, since XVCV has left the Stellaris modding scene, the M&RE mod became unsupported.

This adaptation/continuation will continue to make the Machine & Robot Expansion compatible with the latest versions of Stellaris. In addition to bug fixes, new things are being planned!




This mod adds a variety of ascension perks, new playstyles, civics, traits, and much-needed love for Machines & Robots!

- Start as non-gestalt Robots (Mechanical Origin)
- Edit ruler traits, councilor traits, build leader with traits you pick
- Automated machine worlds that don't require pops to run, with 4 special planet types
- Switch from gestalt to non-gestalt Machines via AP, and back again
- Switch to/away from Driven Assimilator / Rogue Servitor / Determined Exterminator
- Machine Leaders revive after dying (backup trait)
- Ascend to a new bio-mechanical hybrid species
- Declare total war on the galaxy
- Psionic ascension; touch the Abyss ...
- Non-gestalt robots boost trade and empire-wide amenities with Virtual Reality servers planets
- Malware civic makes spy ops easier and adds new infiltration
- Boost your gestalt empire with Machine Learning civic
- Split open planets and mine them with Orbital Crackers

Added in Continuation:

- Release Machine vassals
- Automated Ringworlds
- Dismantle habitats (if your empire has any habitat tech)
- Extended Machines traits & Overclocked origin (thanks Legit Rikk)
- Reanimate defeated organic armies as a Machine empire
- Roleplay a fully automated pop-less Machine empire with the "World-Machines, Awakened" origin[github.com]

And more!

- 15 Civics
- 15 Ascension Perks
- 6 Origins
- 80 Technologies
- 45 traits
