*points up* Isnt there a search function?! How about you check the index / faq threads where everything is?

cant find any mention of the superpowers issue there.

@WeeBubba, welcome back to SPQR!

SPQR 7.0 contains all superpower fixes.

The unit addon includes all other released patches, skin fixes and the two separate addons (legate ancillary and unit addons). Please note it is still beta however.

Sulla, you should throw a link to the Unit add-on into your sig. Loud and proud, baby.

@Sulla, thanks for the warm welcome back, I find that with the great games, if I uninstall, I always come back for more sooner or later!

Ive downloaded your addon. although the SPQR mod was corrupted first time around so I'll have to redo that again. Hopefully I will be installing tonight. I'll keep you all informed of my progress!

Yes it seems that filefront links are corrupted, we are working on that.

Try the fileplanet one just register (it' s free) and download from there, it should work fine.
