what is the (censored) mean? and basically you increase pop to make it so theres less units?

Ooops. (censored) was created becouse I used shortcut for Assault - first 3 letters . And basicly number of units stays at the same level - space population capacity has also increased, it's 50 for both rebellion and empire (empire got this bonus becouse it now has much weaker fighters).

 

The real effect is that units like fighters, bombers, space commanders - cost 0.5 population. As they fall victims of enemy corvettes too fast (although much slower - thanks to MistenTH work), they at least can do some damage before they're gone. So this mod give bigger "punch" for the Rebellion, allowing it to finaly forge  space victory without big handicap - earlier it was losing too many X-Wings etc. I know what am I talking about - I destroyed over 50 X-Wings in one battle. Multiply this number by cost and you'll realize why rebellion face money problems.. And now they are much better armed - now you can even take out corvettes with many fighters..still I wouldn't advise it  ;D

so does number 2 add both reb and empire?

Add what? If you're talking about space pop capacity, then yes, they are equal, 50. If you are talking about fighters spawning, then no, only empire still spawns (rebs = starbases). If something else - be more specific  ;D

Ok, now I extensively played both sides in GC - they work excellent, you can now (with proper tactics) win with both sides as it should be. Also no overpowered nor underpowered units, all have their strenghts and weaknesses; no 0 population stacks of units. That's what I've been aiming for.
