The most (in)famous base to "never exist", Area 51 is located approxamitely 90-100 miles northwest of Las Vegas, NV and is adjacent to the Nevada Test Site. It is property of the Department of Defense (DoD) and the United States Air Force. The base is also famed as being the subject of many UFO conspiracy theories.


Comes with a choice of three buttons for the Civilopedia.

fScale: 2.0 :nuke:

Instructions for Install:

Extract this Folder directly into your Assets/Art/Structures/Buildings folder. I've made two versions of Area 51. You may choose which one you want to use, or use both!




Thanks goes to:

Also very nice, some thoughts for improvement: make the bomb shelter smaller, rotate it perpendicular to the runway and put in 3 of them so they look like aircraft Hangers.

P.S. This wonder would go well with Lopez's Air experience mod adding a large exp bonus to aircraft, which is what I will be doing with it.
 
I think it should be a bit bigger, with more hangers and stuff.

Also, being in a city kind of defeats the purpose of being an above-top-secret military base. I don't know if it is possible to mod the game to have workers build "rural" wonders, but if so, that is what should be done with Area 51 (and Mt. Rushmore too, for that matter).
 
Theoretically it could be an Improvement but you have to jump through a lot of hoops to make an Improvement fire off Wonder like effects and to limit it to one instance. I see no problem with the City based Wonders, it could always be renamed to some other major airforce base.

I actually made a 3-bomb shelter version that has the shelters running perpendicular to the runway. But after viewing both in the game, I liked the one 1-bomb shelter version better, mainly because the taxiway leads straight into the bomb shelter's door.

I might release the version that you want, but I deleted it and would have to make it over again. ;)

** EDIT **

As per Impaler's request, I made a second version of Area 51, just re-arranged the buildings a bit and removed the "third" bomb shelter...

Thank you Grave, this will eventually see use a Wonder Module that give some major boosts to Aircraft, probably a Production bonus and Experience.
 
Very nice grave :goodjob:

Well, I guess it could enable some of the promotions in the Air Force mod...
 
Good job :)
