Any help is appreciated. I'm getting a mod team together and i would like your help. PM me about what you've already done as a modder. And i'm planning to make this a all ages mod, which you CAN play random map or earth map.

This is a mod where YOU can choose what you want in it.

What about the tech astrology?

Astrology has been gradualy developed, but i'll probably put it in the 4th age. This is just a proto tech tree. Thanks for your help.

And by the way, this mod is for WARLORDS only.

Just a thought I might put the stirrup after metal casting as in reality it wasn't developed until the early middle ages I believe but I could be wrong. Plus its logical that to make a stirrup you have to cast it from metal.

this is a new idea, its like this. Whenever yuo use a square it looses productivity, very slowly. If you don't use it, it improves to what it was, slowly. Nukes & Global Warming decreases a squares productivity. For more visit the mods home at Civilzationcenter.com/forums where all the info is (of will be when i have time). Please PM me if yoiu want to help the mod, and be a moderator for it.

Is it necessary to have Metal Casting? Or do you only need bronze working. In history they had metal casting, but in a different world it could be different.
The tech tree hasn't been put on so far, but i'll put it on soon.

Thats lame .

if more people want it in original, then i'll work on it. But as Warlords is the newest and best version then i'm sticking with it.

WARNING: Some arrows are in wrong places.

New features will include:
- food trading
- civic overhaul
- spread out tech tree for slower and more custormixing play
- 32 civs! But you can play with less
- More unquire buildings/units.
- Whatever you post here which is resonable WILL BE ADDED!

Apply for the mod team at this thread.

How about trading missions like sending a group of merchant units to distant cities for a resonable sum of money?

This is already done with the trading routes, but i can make a merchant unit which does get gold. One option is that you can use a bit of a resource (fertilty, above post) and sell it to another civ for gold. That civ gets nothing. You just use a bit of your resourse for gold. Good Idea.

I always liked the idea of a merchant and especially the food trading idea like you have. Merchants would really represent how civs sent their own trading missions like the silf road, or just in general. Plus You can use merchants if your civ isn't connected to another civ.

The food trading will be basic food trading, sending from city a to b, for a small sending cost
