Thanks! Have a Happy New Year!

Just caught the comment on the download page about the challenger bonus :lol:

Call me itchy, but I'll be doing either contender or adventurer...:mischief:

Newbie question here: will installing that HOF mod mean my game cannot run older CiV IV saved games? Anywhere to find more information on what that mod does precisely?

Thanks :)

The HOF mod is completely optional. You have to intentionally load it from the menu, or just double click on the save file which uses it. Since I have down loaded so many HOF versions at this point, I just do the double click on the save file approach.

Hof mod does not effect your old saves. It is not in build mod, and actially most if not all mods in civ are optional.

Can i play this with Warlords?
And whats WOTM?

WOTM is the warlords version. A new one starts in a few days and the preview post just went up for it today. The GOTM are the vanilla version.
