Synthetic Leader Traits is a small mod that adds many new veteran traits (and a new destiny and negative trait) that are available to any Synthetic leader. The aim was to build upon the ascension paths to allow for more diverse roleplay/thematics and some new gameplay elements.

These leader traits are weighted to be somewhat rare and balanced to be slightly more powerful than an average trait, however like any leader trait, their effectiveness will vary on the current strategy.

The mod is currently only available in English (translators welcome).

Check out similar mods of mine, Psionic Leader Traits and Erudite Leader Traits!



Features require Galactic Paragons DLC.

Zero base game files harmed (Should be compatible with all other mods)
(Should also work properly with any mods that allow for multiple ascension paths, such as allowing Cybernetic Psionics)

NOT achievement compatible (Only UI mods that don't change features can be)
