Silics Faction (with Mod Tutorial)

Description
Hello gamers, if you like this mod leave it a like and rating so that my mod can get a public rating. In this mod you play as a the Silics, but as a major faction. This faction will either be harder than usual or easier than usual, so leave a comment about your opinion on the difficulty and balance of this mod, as well as any bugs you notice while playing.

This mod was created for my video series on youtube, where I show you guys how to make a major faction. If yout gys want to see quicker and more edited gamplay videos, I will like my fun playlist as well, where I play games like Hyper Scape, and Among Us. The links are listed below. As for now, the mod has only 1 unique unit and several unique faction traits. Later on I plan to make a video where I add the 5 more unique unit, one for each strategic resource. I do plan on adding more units and making the description better when I have time during the winter break, but if this mod gets a lot of traction, I might make the updates sooner.

Lastly, at the end of my series I gave my viewers a challenge to make their own Minor to Major faction mod. If you guys have any questions about that, then leave a comment on my Youtube channel.

Faction description: minor factions have been oppressed for far too long, and its time that one village defends itself against the satanic major factions.
We Silics just want to peacefully govern ourselves, and develop a prosperous life for our kin. As one of the oldest Factions, we have developed superior ways to extract the Auroras natural resources, and plan to use these resources to better faction. The easiest and most obvious way to utilize these resources, is to extract a surplus of resources and sell them in the market to generate lots of dust for our empire.
A more unnatural approach is to spawn in new Silic units. Our kind normally grown from a any sort of crystal, but some accidentally grew from Titanium. Unlike the other Silics, these people are very weak, with slow speed, but make up for it in their superior defense. With this advancement, we can finally break away from being a weak and defenseless minor faction, to having a sprawling empire filled with diverse Silics. Some of the people in our tribe wanted to test these theories further and see the different types of Silics we can produce. Others scoff at the our ideas and dreams and find it immoral to create the unnatural. A feud broke out which inspired us to search for a new home to start our new empire and produce more unique Silics.
Even with our advanced Silics, will we be strong enough to defend ourselves from the other major factions? Will our diverse army fail as our economy shrinks? can our faction stand the test of time?

Units:

Silics:
~Basically the same as a normal Silic.

Titanium Silic: These Silics are dust infused with the specific crystal Titanium.

~ Titanium Silics have high defense in exchange for its attack and initiative.


Currently known Bugs:
~Militia has poor localization and image doesnt load.
~There are two images of settler at the beginning of the screen

Hey man, so I just bought the game last month, it's been one of those games that I always wanted to play but never had the PC or the money to do so but finally got to the point where i could (just in time for the sale lol) and I also wanted to give modding it a try- found your videos and followed them religiously, but i've been having trouble with it and was wondering if you would be interested in possibly helping me? I know I'm just a random dude but i adore this game and i put a lot of time into this and I think it's also created a bit of a new interest for me as well. It would mean the world to me if you could help me out or something.

When I made my first minor to major faction mod (the Kazanji Faction), the plan was to turn all the minor factions into major factions. The idea behind this specific mod was to teach people how to make a major faction through my tutorial series on Youtube. As practice, people can use a minor faction's trait for guidance and follow my videos to teach them how to make a major faction.

The problem is that I think a lot of people have moved on from EL, or at least its modding scene. The problem is that I started modding EL a year after the last DLC came out. I would love to develop a community here, but not many people seem to be into the EL modding scene. I think a big reason for that is that the game is old and it is very difficult to mod it. I was hoping to jump-start the EL modding scene by creating a tutorial on how to mod, but I dont think many people are interested in it. If I had all the time in the world I would continue making more mods, however, I can only work on these mods over break, as I am in my junior year of Structural Engineering. I also have other goals, such as learning unity and developing this business of mine, etc. Also developing a mod is very tedious, time consuming, and can be very frustrating, especially when im making a trying to create and learn new aspects of modding, like quests and victory conditions.

I do want to say that I am not done modding just yet. I do enjoy modding, regardless of the community. therefore, I might make another mod, this time it will have a hero in it. However, I am looking foward to Humankind and developing a modding community there. Lastly, I am also planing on uploading videos to my Youtube channel, although they will most likely be gameplay videos.

Sorry for the wall of text, but I do appreciate your comment and I want you to know why there may not be another minor to major faction mod. If you are curious about learning how to mod I can teach you, but I dont know if I will make another EL mod alone.

Having checked it out I think it's a neat idea. But If I were to give an suggestion I would say maybe expand it out from just Silics? Perhaps A group of 3-4 minor factions? I sorta get the Harmony vibes from Endless space 1? Other than that a **Very** cool faction idea with a fair amount of potential, I look forward to seeing where this heads out to.
