An insightful point. Most people live secularly, but are ostensibly adherents to some faith.

These are excellent. Kudos!

What may have been the original Civ3 design inspired these alternates, as seen in the Civilization III Instruction Manual pp. 22, 51, 56, 144, 147, 164 (USA First Edition, September 2001). Especially p. 164, in Chapter 15 “Reference: Screen by Screen,” where it labels the Menu and Civilopedia...

The file:

This B set of v3 includes many extra icons. PLEASE NOTE: when you add resources with Civ3Edit, you can only add two new resource icons. So you can never use more than twenty-four different icons. Also, you can only add bonus resources, adding luxury resources will crash Civ3, and adding...

No sweat on the help offered. This modpack is interesting. Sacrifice now to SHTN as nonce unto YHWH.—Baal 6:13

Ideally, each size category would have its own British Isles map?

What I do is go into Civ3Edit and change the Tech Rate setting, so that I discover Gunpowder in the 1400s, Replacable Parts in the 1800s, et cetera.

The number is a “percentage of base cost” variable. The lower the number, the lower the amount of research required to discover new technologies. A tech rate of 50 means only half the base amount of research is required to make a discovery.

Colorfix.zip seems to enable all the colors in Civ3Edit, according to my limited testing. It’s the second downloadable .zip in thispost. Installed the patch—my mods’ demise; woe to those who felt its bite.
