Description:

This mod lowers the design cost of divisions, planes, tanks, ships and other equipment.
The idea is to lower the amount of time waiting to get enough xp, make it easier to field many different types of equipment and be able to experiment more with your designs without making the "needing xp for upgrades" mechanic obsolete.

Updated for version 1.13.x (Stella Polaris/Arms Against Tyranny).
Not achievement compatible.
(Should be) Save compatible.
Works with any dlc combination.

Click here for the version compatible with Ultimate Tech Tree : New Horizons.

– Division batallion add/change/remove cost set to 1 from 5.
