Would it be possible to....?

Would it be possible to make a mod that added in random attacks?  That was one thing I did like about Sword of the Stars that sins doesn't have, I remember one time me and my brother actually killed the stupid planet eater, that was the day..

What I was thinking is something like 20-40 level 10 cap ships suddenly show up at your planet from technically nowhere, about like Insurgency but obviously quite a bit more severe.

Lower the threshold of allegiance (I think this is the trigger) in gameplay.constants, change what spawns in, make it part of a starting/tier 0 research and done.

Ah ok, I was thinking of something passive that would happen to anyone and not just enemies but that might work.. would the AI research it though?

It would happen to anyone as long as there were more than one person in the game, since it triggers to all opposing players.

And if you start out with it then you don't need to worry about the AI.

Thanks for the help I think I answered all my remaining questions other than why the heck it crashes every time I use cap ships instead of frigates.
