Overpowered Civics 3.3*

19/04/22: Another bug fix patch. Also added Endbringer Cult based on an old suggestion that I never got around to implementing... As before, if you have a descriptor error check the "spare" version linked below


Are you sick of your leaders dying? Do you want to blast the End-Game Crisis back where it came from? And, most importantly, are you happy to throw balance out the window to do it?



If the go-to unsubscribing/resubscribing fix doesn't work you can try clearing your launcher cache, as kindly outlined by ApocalypSam in the comments:

"What worked for me:
1. Unsubscribe
2. Make sure all files for this mod are gone:
-No descriptor file in the folder Documents/paradox interactive/stellaris/mod/ with the id 1351653132
-No folder with the same id in [steam library folder]/steamapps/workshop/content/281990/
3. Remove it from all playsets it's in inside the launcher
4. Resubscribe, steam should re-download it now"

And if you don't have any luck with ApocalypSam's method or don't want to have to fiddle around, I'd suggest unsubscribing from the main mod and subscribing to the backup instead:

Also check out my Exigency mod if you prefer your civics slightly less broken: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1610020781



Important note: These civics are blatantly overpowered to the point that they're basically cheats! Randomly generated empires won't spawn with these civics, but if you want to manually create an AI empire and give it one of these civics you'd be giving them a significant buff!


GODMODE

Combines bonuses from (most!) of the other civics. Note that GODMODE doesn't include bonus traits or secondary species etc

COMPATIBILITY
This mod doesn't change any base files so it should be compatible with pretty much everything! ... Except balance and fair play. Definitely not compatible with those
