I've been lurking around for years, and was a huge fan of your Civ 3 mod(like others, I couldn't play Civ3 without it), and I've been following your Catapult Project since the start. Your new mod, even though it is incomplete, already has replaced vanilla civ for me!

Well anyway, I just want to know if there is any way for you to pick the leaderheads that you use. Like, example, if I wanted to play Elizabeth instead of Victoria, or Roosevelt instead of Washington.

I know I could probably just edit the files, and do it easy, but is there a way for you to implement it in your mod without screwing anything up?

You can always open up the map in notepad and just change;

LeaderType=LEADER_VICTORIA
to
LeaderType=LEADER_ELIZABETH.

Since leaders themselves have no actuall powers there will be no gameplay changes however.

I said that I know that I could just edit the files.... I'm asking if there is a way to put the option in the actual game.

I think that in order to choose between more than one leader at the start you should start on a random map.
