Modify ship level for Singleplayer

[Genma]

I know its possible as the modder of Discovery, but what about as a mere mortal?

The reason I ask this is because it was just recently that I decided to give another go to the singleplayer campaing, not open SP, but the mission, kill the nomads with your AI friends SP. The main reason that got me to start SP, was the thought of using some sick ships from the mod to combat those pesky pirates/rehinland/navy/nomad ships. But I was completelly dissapointed when I found out that I played through the whole single player campaing without being able to touch the constrols of a single mod ship, only vanilla ships (and in a few moments I got stuck with a sucky ship because I couldnt find a certain level vessel).

Now I wonder if its possible for me, to modify some .ini file or something similar to change the level 32 ships, and turn them into level 10 or something around that, specially since you finish the games main campaign at around level 18 or even lower, and you dont even get a chance to use an exeptional ship unless you continue playing, wich at that point it becomes open SP and its a lot better to go online in that case.

Now before enaything happens, Im not trying to h4x the mod or do something extreme, its just a simple question from a single player enthusiastic gamer.

After all, who wouldnt want to take on a Rehinland fleet with a cruiser or battleship to aid Juni and King? :D
