SPELLWEAVER'S 1200 AD MOD VERSION 1.0
-------------------------------------
Thank you for downloading the first ever version of SpellWeaver's 1200 
AD Mod. This mod adds to your CivCTP game many aspects of the height 
of the Middle Ages not already present in the game. With this mod 
installed, you can:

- Take charge of (or play against!) the Seljuk civilization, Turkish
conquerors of the Holy Land and ruled by Saladin (the famous opponent
of Richard the Lionheart in the Crusades - well, you know that!). Has
30 pre-added city names (with Jerusalem as the capital).

- Govern your people in a new way - Chivalrous Monarchy - government
of "knights-in-shining-armour" and mythical kings. This goverment 
can be enacted once you have the Stirrup advance - it comes before the
regular Monarchy.

- Build powerful and strong Castles in your cities to increase your
defence and cut crime by half. These require Engineering to be built.

So what are you waiting for? Here's how you install the basic files...

Run Windows Explorer or My Computer and open your Civ folder (in
Program Files/Activision). Then go into civ_data/english/gamedata and
copy these files: civ_str.txt, gl_str.txt and help_str.txt. Then go 
back to the directory where you found this file, and open the Backup
folder. Paste these three files in there.

NOW TO INSTALL THE INDIVIDUAL PARTS OF THIS MOD, OPEN THE "DEFAULT"
FOLDER IN THIS DIRECTORY. THEN OPEN THE FOLDER CORRESPONDING TO THE
THING YOU WANT TO INSTALL FIRST, AND OPEN THE "INSTALLATION.TXT" FILE
THERE.

If you think there could be a teeny tiny improvement by the next 
version, tell me! E-mail me - clive.ian.bailey@wanadoo.fr
Here are some improvements that I hope to make:

- Make some units for the mod. I already have the graphics for a 
green Dragon, Siege Tower, Seljuk soldier and Crusader. I only have
to learn how to make the sprite. If someone could help with this, I
would be most grateful and credit you for it.
 
- I'm not sure what else. I might try to exterminate the bug that 
enables the Castle to be built twice per city!

- I'll try and add a new diplomacy photo of Saladin to the game.

If you like what you have seen of my work so far, be sure to look for
the following mods, also made by me and coming VERY soon:

- SpellWeaver's Iceni Mod (adds the Iceni civilization, removes 
nothing) Has a diplomacy picture of Queen Boudicca and 30 city names.

- SpellWeaver's Lefty Pointer Kit (contains rotated images of Civ's
standard hand pointer to facilitate the use of the game by left-handed 
players)

On the other hand, if you absolutely DETEST this mod, please let me 
know. I'll do what I can to change what you don't like, provided you
tell me, of course!

Thanks once again for your interest in this modification, and I hope 
you find that it improves your Civ experience in many ways.
