When Great People are produced, I want to know something about them. I have an Encyclopedia Britannica, or I can run an Internet search, but I would rather not have to leave the game. Is there a mod that presents in-game biographies for Great People?

Also, sometimes I want to know the name of the music I'm listening to. (I think I've been listening to one of Beethoven's symphonies and to excerpts from Broadway musicals, but I'm not sure.) Is there a mod that displays the name of the music?

Thank you, Afforess. That mod does look cool, and I may try it, even though it seems only for Warlords.

I was looking for textual biographies of Great People. The Civilopedia has good, brief good descriptions of religions, technologies, etc., but nothing for Great People.

It's no big deal. I am happy playing without it. :goodjob:

Its not just for warlords. Down near the bottom of the post theres a link for BTS. Main reason you could tell is that there is a picture of the ancient era great spy, it wasn't available in WL.
