Insert Epic Mod Name Here (INEMONH)
UPDATED AS OF August 2, 2007.
Greetings Civvers. Over the past few months, I've been perfecting a new mod/scenario thing. I actually don't know what to call it, because it really is both.
Here are the fundamentals of INEMONH.
The Map
The map is a slightly modified version of El Mencey's 326x306 World Map.
The Rules
Victory Conditions:
Believe it or not, standard victory conditions apply.
Resources:
I have not added any new resources, though I might at some later date. However, I have made several of the bonus resources into luxuries. Here is a complete list of the resources and what they do:
You can count on certain resources being only in certain parts of the world, too. Trade and colonies are a must for European nations.
Terrain:
The only terrain on which you may settle is "Ideal City Location," it takes the graphic of Marsh. It gives 2 food. This is to severely limit the AI in it's quest to fill every inch of the map with useless cities. All locations correspond with a real Earth city.
Here's a list of every city location on the map.
The only changes to terrain are that Hills give 0 food and 2 shields, plus 2 more when you mine them, same is true of mountains but they give 3 shields when you mine them, Tundra gives 0 food, and Flood Plains have 1 food, but give 3 more when you irrigate them. Everything else is the same.
Units:
This is the fun part. The units are the most heavily modded part of INEMONH.
Originally intended to add balance, I soon realized that my technique did very much to unbalance the mod. However, it becomes soooo much more fun to play.
Here is what I did to the units:
Ancient Era units stay the same.
Medieval Era units that are pre-gunpowder have 2x the stats (not including movement).
Gunpowder units up to Tanks have stats multiplied by 3. This excludes a number of units, including, Musket men, all modern naval units, and all air units.
Modern Units have their powers multiplied by 4. This is really only true for the Modern Armor, which gains a devastating 73 attack points. I’ll elaborate on this in a minute.
Here is a list of every unit, and its shield cost, power, toughness, movement points, resources required, flags checked, and upgrade paths. Oh hell, I’ll put it on a spreadsheet.
Spreadsheet of units is here.
Also, the following civilizations enjoy their own type of Battleship, Infantry, and Rifleman:
Let’s see, what else haven’t I covered yet?
Oh yes, I allowed plague, too. I just copied the exact stats of the “With Plague” scenario that comes with C3C.
The turn times of this are absolutely amazing. Even in the modern era, wartime turns only required around 5 minutes of waiting. This was achieved by delaying the availability of sea and air trade. To get these, you will first need to construct a Harbor or Airport, respectively, and then either an International Port or International Airport, again, respectively. This makes these two trade mediums just a bit rarer, and drastically speeds up the turns while still allowing overseas trade.
UPDATES ON JULY 31, 2007:
Now that I've cracked the egg of true modding, I've been able to add the unit graphics I wanted to. Each of the new units in the game has it's own graphic to correspond. Also, several of the original units now are represented by graphics of famous types of that unit: for example, the transport, whilst still staying a normal transport, is now represented by the HMS Brittanic. Other featured unit graphics include the MiG29, Supermarine Spitfire, Partiot Missile System, and the USS Constitution.
Okay, here's the download! Just unzip it, it's in WinRAR, and put the folder into your Conquests/Scenarios directory, and of course, put the .biq into the same place. Make sure you remove the INEMONH folder from the unzip folder, there'll be two of them, one inside the other, with the exact same name.
I'm also including a random map version. On that version, you can settle on any terrain.

And last, but not least, enjoy! And be sure to give me your critique, it's your voice that makes future versions better!

NOTE: There were a number of units I downloaded over the months that I used in this scenario, so I'm sure I haven't mentioned everyone whose units I've used. If, in the process of playing INEMONH, you recognize your units, graphics, or someone else's, by all means, tell me, so I can add you/them to the credits!
