http://forums.civfanatics.com/uploads/37977/1156572228.jpgWe have some great downloads this week. In particular, watch out for Orthanc's strange ships, Hikaro Takayama's excellent Final Fantasy leaderheads, Varlin Saliptor's many static graphics, and the first public beta of Darque's long-awaited Dragonia mod. All are excellent and should be tried out forthwith.

Also, a landmark has been passed: Rocoteh's mammoth WW2 Global (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=107698) scenario recently passed the 10,000 downloads mark. Try it for yourself and see why it's one of the most staggeringly popular mods on the boards.

TERRAIN


Volcano Jungles (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?p=4399084#post4399084) by Varlin Saliptor. These are designed to go with the Womok/Keldor terrain - they add temples to jungle volcanos. Mysterious!
Industrial Mining Camp (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?p=4399240#post4399240) by Varlin Saliptor. These replace the standard mine with a little camp, and feature an Industrial era version with nasty smoking chimneys too.
Arrow Victory Point (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?p=4407555) by Varlin Saliptor. Just in case the standard obelisk thing isn't obvious enough for you, here's an enormous neon arrow to tell your players just where they can go.
Western European Industrial Set (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?p=4420288#post4420288) by varwnos. Another nice set of city graphics with masses of detail.
