If you ascend you lose all benefits of the policies.
Kali  [author] Apr 18, 2023 @ 10:29am 
It also added ground warfare doctrine.
Kali  [author] Apr 18, 2023 @ 10:28am 
Yes back when it was worked on it changed them to be more powerful. Policies.
Sgt. Sarge Apr 18, 2023 @ 3:15am 
War doctrines are already in the vanilla game, just want to know which vanilla file has the war doctrines so I can edit them
Kali  [author] Mar 23, 2023 @ 11:18pm

Kali  [author] Mar 23, 2023 @ 11:14pm 
Do you need Utopia to have traditions?
Sgt. Sarge Mar 23, 2023 @ 4:29pm 
How did you make changes to the doctrines? I like the changes but I don't have Utopia
WolvesofZiu Nov 29, 2022 @ 11:00pm
