Hello,

I've been playing Civilization IV for some time and I've played with almost every civilization. Now I would like to try something new. In this forum I've read about making mods and creating new civilizations. I'm very bad using computers for programming or drawing and for me it's going to be very dificult to create a new civilization.

I´ll be adding information about some civilizations which lived in Spain during history. I´ll try to include enough information with photographs or drawings.
Maybe somebody wanted to create one of them, I think it could be interesting.:)

Tartessos.
(to be continued)

Bye!
 
Tartessos was a legendary civilization which lived in the South of Spain (present Andalucia) 1.000 BC. They were famous all around the Mediterranean Sea for mining silver and bronce. Plato wrote that Tartessos traded with Atlantis and other greek writers said that Tartessos was Atlantis because of his high culture. But Tartessos was destroyed and forgotten.

More information: Tartessos

Leader: King Arganthonius. Creative and Financial, fovours Mercantilism.

Starting Techs: Mining and Fishing

Flag: I think that silver could be the color of the Tartessos' flag. And one of these simbols could be added to it: Bronze figure or Indalo

Unique Unit: Iberian mercenary with Falcata (an strange type of sword, look). This unit could replace axeman (6 strength, +50% vs. Melee Units, 1 first strike)
Tartessos normally used fierce iberian warriors (look) as mercenary to defend himself against enemies.

Great Scientists : Hiarbas

Great Merchants : Elimos

Great Prophets : Anae

Great Artists : Sirco

Great Engineers : Kulkas

Cities:
Turpa (capital)
Nabrissa
Colobona
Olba
Onoba
Cartare
Asta
Xera
Turpila
Calia
Illipa
Carpia
Caura
Cilpe
Tucci
Ugia
Calpe

I don't know if all these names are historical real names. I've extracted them from a novel about Tartessos.
Bye and thanks for reading me.
 
It sounds very interesting.
