Delete Leader's Pass Personas

Woe, the suffering of the Leader's Pass DLC is truly immense. A disproportionate amount of budget Personas, many featuring uninspired mechanics with uninteresting new angles. Rather than enhancing my games, I found these cheap knockoffs to be disorienting to my experience! How could I hit Random with confidence knowing I might waste time being shuffled into one of these under-cooked leaders? Why would I want to see Unifier Qin in my games, who only performs well in a single niche game mode? Why is Harald ruling England when he historically failed to claim the English throne? In what world do I care about Saladin's military accomplishments as much as I care about the Islamic Golden Age?!

While these Personas might offer fresh content for less resources and bring new mechanics into the game that can be fun to mix things up, they can become distracting clutter for those with historic roleplay purist inclinations, bloating the roster with off brand AI neighbors. For anyone who's constantly trying out new mods and therefore having to create new saved rulesets, the need to constantly purge these leaders can become an exercise in tedious frustration. Once again, I must go into the advanced menu and headhunt to have these leaders removed from the pool so I might see their more interesting original persons instead! Occasionally I'd find out I forgot one of them and bemoan the loss of an otherwise exciting spawn to a neighbor I didn't want to see.

No longer shall I suffer this indignity! This mod will do the work of removing these Personas from my games in one fell swoop and save me time when I'm curating and testing my mod lists. Sultan Saladin, Unifier Qin, Ptolemaic Cleopatra, Age of Steam Victoria, Varangian Harald, Muhteşem Suleiman. Poof. Begone into the void! If for whatever reason you may benefit from such a feature as well, this mod is for you.
