A mod pack with a few minor vars.

This mod-pack adds one extra alien race and two extra worlds (Beta Centauri I and II)
into the standard ExtendedOriginal Play.

Also, the 3 previously empty Unit Slots are utilised.

See Embedded Read-me for further details.

Mod-Pack can be found at : http://www.users.bigpond.com/kestrel18

This is vey much an "alpha" release, so I would be keen to get any feedback that would help its improvement.

Thanks & Regards.

Sounds interesting. I already modified my extended play to have two alien races. Its rather interesting. They usually beat up on each other then ally with each other in time for your landing and then attack.

One peculiar thing is, while you can keep techs and units out of the hands of the aliens, they can still build all the normal wonders of the world! This seems very strange. I think there should be a way for the aliens not to build these, just to be able to suspend disbelief. Its bad enough they look like a human leader when you meet them, but when they go and build the Eiffel Tower or something it gets even harder to think of them as aliens.
