Other info:
1. We did our best to have the map as close to reality as possible.
2. Natural and luxury resources are generally seldom found. You may have problems in securing a necessary amount in the game.
3. There are more forested areas on the map than there are in XX-century Poland. The reason: the game begins in 4000 BC, and, as you might know, even some 1000 years ago the majority of Poland was covered by forests.
4. What has not been done according to the actual state of things:
- because some bonus resources are non-existent in Poland, we devised substitutes. And so:
- wines represent the biggest orchard agglomerations
- spice represents salt
- silk represents flax (linen)
- incense represents tobacco
- saltpeter represents sulfur
- there is no ivory
- gems represent amber
- two additional uranium resources
- three additional saltpeter/sulfur resources
- placing some aluminum resources (non-existent in Poland)
- placing some rubber resources (non-existent in Poland)
5. The rules have been slightly modified, as we wanted some resources to be placed on plains and grasslands.
6. The 19 Goodie huts and 21 Barbarian Camps represent the remnants of prehistoric and ancient human settlements in the area of Poland.


Used during the making of the map were:
1. "Geografia Ekonomiczna Polski", under the direction of Ryszard Domański, 1989
2. http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/seg/topo/globe.shtml
3. "Atlas Geograficzny", wydanie XI, PPWK Warszawa, 1973
4. "Polska, Kontynenty, Świat" - PPWK Warszawa, 1988
5. "Polska Fizyczna", wyd. Mapy Ścienne - Beata Piętka
6. Encyklopedia PWN.

Here is a "screenshot" from BMPtoBIC. Doesn't look very nice, so don't judge on this.

	Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

I just d-loaded the map. As soon as I finish my current game I'll try it out.

Ever think about making a Poland mod? I've seen more than a few suggestions of it at the fanatics forum.

And another thing, if you make anything else Poland related, drop me a line and I'll download it (being Polish and all I like this kind of stuff).

	Suffering from ads?

Hi filmic10,

I'm not planning to create Polish mod. Maybe in the future?

BTW. Visit us on LoD's Civ3 site civ3.ask-klan.net.pl
There is a nice discussion forum.
