Version v1.14 is now available for download:
http://www.captainkwok.net/balancemod.php

This version has a few fixes and tweaks, along with a bunch of AI improvements. You'll see the AI using a variety of ship sizes, some new designs, and even do some rudimentary enemy design analysis.

It's compatible with all v1.10+ savegames.

Next up is v1.15, which will be a save game breaker and probably the last update of the mod for now.
