Transformers: War for Cybertron Ships & Portraits

Description
This mod adds several portraits based on the Transformers depicted in the War for Cybertron games.

Features
1. Several cybertronian portraits: Autobot, Decepticon, Neutral, Maximal, Predacon, Vehicon, and Insecticon
2. Two shipsets for both factions (now NSC compatible)
3. Four custom citysets: Autobot, Decepticon, Neutral, and Insecticon
4. Several Cybertronian Origins:

- Fall of Cybertron: Start on a war-torn Cybertron that will begin a core shutdown event similar to the Doomsday
origin where you'll have to evacuate Cybertron before it goes completely offline.

- War for Cybertron: Start on Cybertron just before the Great War. This origin will include story events that will eventually lead to a massive Decepticon uprising for control of Cybertron which will determine the fate of your entire empire.

- Cybertronian Colony Origins: Start on a cybertronian colony in a random solar system either an Energon or Dark Energon starting point. This origin will also spawn an abandoned Cybertron somewhere in the galaxy.

- Pax Cybertronia: Start on Cybertron during the Golden Age. Strong start which includes the AllSpark relic that increases robot assembly speed and energy/energon production.

- Insecticon Hive: Start on a random Cybertronian colony infested with Insecticons (For gestalt empires only).

5. New strategic resources: Energon and Dark Energon - unlocks new edicts and armies.
6. New buildings: Energy Refineries/Mines - adds two energon refiner and miner jobs respectively that produce energon, energon crystals, energy, and amenities.
7. Autobot/Maximal, Decepticon/Predacon, Vehicon, and Functionist civics: Also unlocks several unique armies based on these factions (i.e. Insecticons, Dinobots, Combiners, Omega Supreme, & Trypticon).
8. Several government types based on the civics mentioned above including new opinion modifiers when interacting with other empires.
9. Multiple new species traits: Cybertronian (ascension perk subclasses included), Faction traits: Autobot/Maximal, Decepticon/Predacon, Vehicon, etc.
10. Cybertron themed rooms
11. Cybertronian faction namelists
12. Cybertronian relics
13. Cybertronian utility components

Reported Issues for Multiplayer

When using a cybertronian prescripted empire in multiplayer, running a saved game will remove the option to play that empire again due to a conflict with the synthetic empire's mechanical trait.

Workaround: Switch to the "cybertronian machine" portrait set and replace the mechanical trait with the machine trait. This should allow for cybertronian empires to remain on the list of saved empires. If you have the Machine Age dlc, this will also allow for machine cybertronians to use regular ethics as an individual machine empire.

@✧Starshadow Melody✧ Thanks! I'm glad you found it interesting!

Interesting. I like how the ethics selection shows that they're still autobots at the core, but a bit jaded by trauma...

@force728 They all resided on a Gaia world called Eukaris, which was not only the only non-cybertronian world to naturally produce Energon, but also the only planet left in the galaxy that still produced regular Energon instead of Dark Energon, and its Energon was still viable, but only to Optimus since he was the only one to not be converted to run on Dark Energon. Ginrai uses Optimus in his truck mode (an Earth-based truck mode) to make supply runs to and from other settlements and Energon mines on Eukaris. One human in the group, named Cab, has been visiting Optimus while he's in their outpost's garage and talks to him, choosing to believe that though inert, he can hear him. Ginrai is now on the verge of finally reactivating Optimus and giving the galaxy the symbol of hope it needs, but the shadow of the Vehicons looms...

@force728 The only way for Transformers to save themselves was to corrupt their planets with Dark Energon and convert themselves to run on it. Eventually, Cybertron followed suit. This event that resulted in the reluctant conversion became known as the Darkfall. There was a new Autobot government on Cybertron that replaced the Commonwealth following the Darkfall. The Autobot Dominion. Unlike the Commonwealth, which was a Demeocracy, and Fanatic Egalitarian and Xenophile, they were an Oligarchy, and Egalitarian, Xenophile, and Militarist, showing how the scars of the Vehicon attack had changed them. They were led by Ultra Magnus, who took charge after Optimus went missing in a fight with the Vehicons shortly before the Darkfall. Unbeknownst to most of the Galaxy, Optimus had been locked in vehicle mode, and was in the care of an old human friend of his named Ginrai, who had sheltered a group of teens and young adults who had been orphaned in Vehicon attacks.

@force728 All Decepticons were absorbed into the Autobot Commonwealth, and their logo changed into an Amalgamation of the Autobot and Decepticon logos. Peace settled into the Galaxy. But, a few years later, the arrival of a Determined Exterminator Machine Intelligence Cybertronian Empire known as the Vehicon Mainframe, lead by a Transformer named Obsidian, started attacking the worlds of the galaxy. As many were unprepared to defend themselves from attackers due to the prior lack of conflict, few fared well. They ran on Dark Energon and none had sparks but Obsidian himself. Eventually, the Vehicons created a weapon that stopped the production of normal Energon in what seemed to be all planets in the galaxy that did so. (continues in next comment)

@force728 As Optimus held Galvatron in his arms, Megatron sent out a transmission from his internal commlink to all in the Galaxy, saying "My fellow Decepticons, and all others watching this. I must woefully announce that my existence will end shortly. But, before I go, I must send out my final testament. Whilst I was a slave to Unicron, I finally learned the true meaning of oppression, and have thus lost my taste for inflicting it. I also do not wish my violent legacy to be carried on. *cough* I am... dissolving the Decepticon Star Empire... and all other Decepticon Empires. *cough* The Decepticons are no more, and that... is... final..." And with a mighty pseudo-exhale, Galvatron, the Decepticon Emperor of Destruction, perished peacefully in the arms of the one, who, for eons, up until a week ago, had been his mortal enemy.

@force728 Alright then! Gather 'round Cybertronians, Insecticons, Organics, Lithoids, Extradimensionals, and Lesser Machines alike, as we delve into... the Darkfall. It happened after Unicron was defeated in his true form. There was great celebration in the Galaxy as the most powerful and horrific crisis was defeated for the second and last time. The defeat was due in part to the combined efforts of the improbable duo of Optimus Prime and Galvatron, who used the combined powers of the Matrix of Leadership and the Dark Spark to end the Chaos Bringer at last. The act left Optimus alright, but Galvatron used up all his power. (continues in next comment)

@V: No, it's a planet decision to restore it, so you need to colonize it first.

@Sassafier: Sure.

Is there a way to restore cybertron without colonizing it?

@force728 Excellent! BTW, while I've got your attention, would you like to hear the lore for my Dark Energon Autobot situation?
