Default Slow Balanced Mod 1.4

This is for multiplayer games mostly, as I don't know how the AI will react.

Kwok's Balanced mod has been modified so that populations consume much more resources. This should slow down expansion rates, as resources must be carefully watched. In PBW games I have played, it seemed like rapid expansion and research was the primary strategy. This mod hopes to slow this down and put more emphasis on managing your empire.

In my current test game, I have gone ~ 35 turns. It is working well so far, I cannot just expand as fast as I can because I will run out of resources. I also have to balance my expansion/construction with my Navy since the resources are more scarce. The new hull type might be nice to build, but I better have the resources to cover it.

Any thoughts are welcome. I will be putting together a PBW game soon.
