(I came, I saw, I conquered)

Gaius Julius Caesar - October 2, 48 BC

One of the greatest Mods ever has finally been released. Including more than 50 new units, new Mod Components, new ideas developed from scratch, rewritten and extended most of other known mod Components according to the suggestions of our fans and our analysis of a more balanced game play.

This Mod takes Civ4 a step further. Our philosophy for this mod is easy and straight forward: We empathize on three stages:
1) Game Balance, Unit Balance, tactical balance between all available Civs
2) Realism: Archers shall not destroy Tanks. More realistic warfare and strategically depth by using the advantages of your units to counter the enemy.
3) Fun: This is why we are here, right?

We have extensively modified the Game play according to realistic Warfare, Politics, AI decisions, Trade, exclusive religion mod, realistic raze city, unit-counter-strategies and much more.

- Took out the temple resource so it wont show up in random maps
- Collateral damage toned down for Chariots, Knights and Cataphtracts
- Knights, Cataphtracts, Chariots and all Tanks have negative bonuses in Forests and Jungles
- Moves reduced for units above & Horse archers
- Mongolians have -25% in Desert (to stop them in Arabia like in history), all Knights have now negative bonuses on certain terrain.

- Longbowman now upgrades to Musketman
- Updating Teutonic Knights Graphics to Original with Cross
- Crusaders need now also a Christian Cathedral before being able to get produced and Muslim Mujahis need a Temple (Mosque). This will force the players that will use this warfare advantage of these religions, being more serious about them and spending some production before in building religious buildings. (It might seem not unfair that Christians need a Cathedral while Muslims need only a Temple. However the Muslims also get -15% Trade routes while Christians don't have this. And Crusaders are slightly more powerful than Mujahids.)

- Machinegun 10% Defense Bonus vs. Early Tanks (WW1) + 50% vs Mounted

Some of the major new features:

Land Transporters

We forgot to mention this. We got a WW2 land transporter to transport 3 infantry units to the front lines. There is a better Humvee for the Modern age that has better defense, more moves and more cargo. Try to find behind the enemy lines, do a Blitzkrieg or just send produced units faster to the front lines...Also the Whippet WW1 Tanks now have a horde promotion. Have 5 of them in one stack fighting together....


Military Generals

You are waiting for the Expansion to be able having real general sin the battle field? Why are you waiting? Here they are. Take care of your units with higher promotion, the higher their promotion is you have highter chances to obtain an additional real general that can fight on the battle field and give the units in the stack combat promotion. This gereral can also rush wonders.

We have at this time two different generals. The one that is being generated in the cities as great person, who can build academies etc. and this battle field general. Both will be merged in one unit in the next release.


Different approach to Assassins:

- No more negative population (minimum after attack is half of previous (or 1))
- No more negative culture (minimum is half of previous) - need more complex algorithm based on culture level etc...)
- reduced occupation timer (was too high for experienced assassins)
- Halved success and survival chance when targeted civ has "Police state" civic

Different Time line:
You won't see the years but a general era. e.g. Ancient Era etc. The problem with WHEN something is founded is no longer one.

Slavery civic good or bad?

If you accept Slavery during warfare you might capture the enemy units and turn them into your slaves. Slaves work for you as workers or can be sacrified to rush a production. However be aware, that having the slavery civic could come to uprisings in your empire, where you would never expect it...Spartacus is calling

Mercenaries at your service

It is now possible to hire mercenaries in times of desperation. Press Alt-M and get to their Menu and be aware the more experienced a mercenary gets the more expensive he will be.

Religion Mod:

So far not published anywhere else is our Religion Mod that makes Religions more realistic.

Since Judaism, one of the oldest religions, was a tribal religion (PC we call it in this mod dominant religion) it acts a bit differently in this mod.

Once a player founded Judaism and converts to Judaism, he becomes the protector of this faith. Judaism can ONLY spread inside the own countries borders. And it doesn’t allow any other religion being spread in the Jewish cities. Only exception is the Jewish holy city which can have, like Jerusalem, other religions. The AI knows how it works and won’t waste one missionary outside the border. Since this puts the player into a tougher situation and probably more pressure from outside, Jewish temples provide +15% more trade routes.

The other improvement is that holy cities in general can disappear if the Player doesn’t convert into that religion. Let say you found Zoroastrianism and you get the holy city. If you don’t convert your state religion to that religion, you would loose the holy city in 10 turns. After 15 turns the holy city might appear again in a random city that A) has that religion and B) has the biggest population among those cities. Independent from civilization the holy city might even spawn in your neighbors borders who do more appreciate that religion. The respawn of a holy city also happens if the holy city had been razed. There is only one exception to the dominant religions like Judaism. Their holy city is the only holy city they like to have. The civic free religions plays also a big part. It tolerates other holy cities and acts as it had the state religion of all those religions.

This mod makes it harder to collect all religions and holy cities for yourself. Diversity and distribution of the religions among all civs will be the result.


Raze a city shorter than razing a cottage?

Not anymore. From now if you or AI try to raze a city it happens like in real. The Population and buildings get decimated each turn until the city is no more. Only small cities of 3 get instantly destroyed. This way you get some time sending troops to rescue your fallen cities.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I found a bug, where I can report?
A: Please, all bugs report at SourceForge bug tracker:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?gro...17&atid=842522
Check if this bug has already been reported. In this case just add your comment to the existing report!

Q: My game keeps crashing on start and moves back to desktop!
A: This is in most cases cache problem. Try to clear-out the game cache (located in "C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\cache" by default,
you must have switched the option "Show hidden file" on. Then start the mod not directly thorugh the desktop shortcut, but start the vanilla Civ game and then load the mod from Advanced menu

Q: Can I use MapXY for playing this mod?
A: No, from premade maps you can use only Total Realism Earth Map, or you can use generated map. (In other premade maps you cannot get resources that are not included
in vanilla Civ4. This is the case for all mods not only for Total Realism, which uses own set of resources/bonuses)

Q: There is barbarians inside my teritory !
A: Probably you have adopted Slavery Civic - slaves in your cities have a chance to initiate revolt and can appear around your cities as barbarian units! Spartacus rules!

[Walter Hawkwood]

Now, that is totally cool! Downloading at once.

We have finished over 225 commits only on this version. It was way more than just a 0.5 step. There are so many little improvements that you only will notice once you play.

I am sure you guys will love it!

Just wondering, it takes between 10-12 seconds for each turn to go thru?? and the game just started, hate to see it when it gets further involved?? any suggestions??

If you mean the worldmap, you should have at least 1 GB Ram. And I assue you the time between turns stays as it is, since in the beginning are more barbarians. Meanwhile while the Civs are growing the Barbarians get decimated. So it stays even.

Looks great Houman.

I especially like the idea of taking several turns to raze a city. Is that available as a separate mod, or is it something unique to TR?

Np won't play it just for checking which of my units are in. The mods sounds interesting as a whole concept
