Ok, I've finished the file. Everything should be perfect (cross your fingers). Some notes on the mod and map.
MOD:
I modified the Babylonians to be the Israelis. The UU is the same (bowman), I adjusted the city names, leader names, and I made their traits religious and agricultural which seem more fitting for Israel.
I added one unit, a hot air balloon, cause it seemed cool and I wanted to play around with adding units. Its 0-0-1, with 2 space visability and treats all terrain as roads. It comes available at invention and costs 30 sheilds. Basically its purpose is to provide some reconasince for invading armies with its extra visability.
Since the Atlantic ocean is kinda small on this map, I modified the galley and curaugh so they are unable to enter ocean squares. No early trips to America. This I think is actually a cool improvement over Civ2, cause we can push back the age of discovery until caravels. This is more realistic too.
MAP:
I found a standard sized earth map and I tweaked it to be a little less horrible. Its not perfect (i'm rather perfectionist with maps) but its good enough. There are 5 of each resource and luxury, so there are no surplus, just enough for each of us.
I've placed the resources in fairly historical spots, but for somethings (like aluminum, salt pepper, etc) I just made stuff up because I don't know where in the world is known for their salt pepper.
Some regions have concentrations of some luxuries and/or resources. For example most of the silk is in China and most of the oil is in the Mideast. I think this will make the game more interesting as it forces us to trade (or conquer to get resources). Sometimes the last remaining strategic resource may be scattered in some random spot on the globe like South America or Australia, so that adds something to the age of colonialism.
To ensure a more balanced start I put an iron and horse relatively near everyone's start. Its not perfect though, so there are no guarantees you'll get one, but it should be within your sphere of influence.
Ok, the game is starting now, so I'm hoping to see some opening posts from people. (some introduction story before the game starts) And again, please confirm whether you can start this Saturday. Thanks.
FILE:
Ok, download this .rar file (like a .zip file, but better), and unzip it in your conquest scenario folder. (civ3/conquests/scenario). It should work just fine. If there are any problems, let me know. |
This was going to be Monarch dificulty
I think all victory was allowed
it was set to be:
Israel
Zulu
China
Russia
France
but I'm sure that can be changed easy enough
The turn tracking story thread is already to go with cool pics even Dawn of the 3rd Age
 Maybe it should be changed to 4th Age now though
Zulus are for me. Shaka the Great Elephant embraces the 4th Age.

I, because of my desire for knowledge plus I been working in it since 1985, I have been a yardman, unloaded train cars with cement, plant maintainence, drove a mixer for years, was a plant manager, actually for a year and a half batched,loaded and delivered concrete out of a one truckplant..that was kind hard work..then ran a plant with 5 trucks then promoted to my current position of area manager with 40 people working for me...
I have spoke at the local college, homebuilders associations, city,county ,and government inspectors workshops as i try to teach what i have learned..
I am an ACI Level I Field Tech, ACI Flatwork Certified, NCDOT Level ! & II batch and mix design certified for the State of North Carolina in additional was in first ever NRMCA Certified Concrete Sales Professional Course, a 76 hour college credit (C E U's).
I study and love to learn about concrete, so much behind the mixing procedure..
ok..enough about this..I could thread jack inadvertently by speaking on the most durable product!
Peace
