Factions

Both factions consist of a 40-40-20 split of gobs, grobs, and guros. Both are of industrial tech level. One is neutral, the other is hostile.

Overall my goal was the make the xenos feel more "human-esque" than some of the other options available for gobbos.

Made the mod for personal use, figured I’d upload it. I’ll likely revamp the page here and improve the mod when I have more time. For now though, as far as I can tell it works well enough

Known issues

-Character editor breaks the gendered heads when changing the pawns gender. Reapply the xenotype to fix, I’ll look into a fix.
-Likely some typos and descriptions need worked out.
