I know many of us have done quite a lot of research in the course of our mod making -- and will continue to do so.
With that in mind -- and the general intelligence and curiosity of the "typical" Civ player -- I've begun compiling and organizing a library of URLs, using the following categories to begin with:
I. HISTORY
IV. CONTEMPORARY ISSUES
V. MILITARY MODELS, SCHEMATICS, ILLUSTRATIONS, ETC.
VI. MODELS OF BUILDINGS
VII. MISCELLANEOUS & OTHER
VIII. URLs To Be Sorted
IX. OOBs (Order Of Battle)
This is very much an ongoing effort -- there are about 200 links so far (18 October '03).
PLEASE POST ADDITIONS / COMMENTS / SUGGESTIONS / ETC. IN THIS THREAD!
-- This is a change from my original request, now that I have things somewhat organized.
... Oh and many thanks to Zulu & Mithadan for helping to kick-start this list
