The goal of this mod is to allow the Japanese to build a new Unique Unit known as the Kamikaze. This unit will have its stats set as they are for the Zero by default, except when they bombard anything, they will do a suicide run on their target.

At least this is what I'm hoping for, this is still in experimental phase as this new unit has not been done before and I don't have time to testit, let alone play Civ as much as I want to.

Enjoy!

:EDIT:
Mod is now uploaded.

I'm putting the code up for all to see.

Interesting idea! For some reason, it brings to memory the armies of Fanatics the AI would have in Civ II. :)

I don't think this mod is working... :sad: The tags look right, but I don't see any Kamikaze units, or Civilopedia entries.

I'm still convinced ModBuddy is broke in relaying information to the database for most users.

Perhaps Kamikaze should be a special mission for the Zero unit? The AI might not be able to handle that, though.
