Technical Stuff:
This career was made with patch 1.34 and should work with all lower patches. It requires only the base game to run and should work with any combination of expansion and stuff packs. It works in my game but if you have problems, let me know :)
Translating
Since I'm not fluent in any language other than English, the career is only written in the one language. So if you're interested in translating, download the Language Strings file and open it in Notepad.
Update: Phase Eleven works too. Phase Ten is for those with patches 1.31 to 1.36. Anyone with 1.38 needs Phase Eleven and the careers work with that too.
All the careers are compatible with Patch 1.38 and Supernatural
