[BTS Module] Mexico ***requested***

Hello there,

A big update this time around. After trying for a few days, I finally managed to make my own units. I was able to get a Crossbowman / Longbowman / Maceman / Chariot / Knight / War Elephant / Pikeman. I've used the skins from bernie14 & ModFreak to make them. All this units were added to Mexico as flavor units. I also did a lot of recoloring, minor reskinning. I've added all this unit to the Aztec Empire aswell.

Also I've added "half" support for French / German / Italian / Spanish versions of the game. Now when you load this mod on said language, you will see names & civilopedias in english instead of just being blank.

I recolored the F5E, I added the Aztec Calendar to both the galley & trireme. I reskinned & added a new face paint & helmet to the Marine and I have to say he came out pretty good. I've also added the mexican flag to the Marine / Infantry / Sam Infantry / At Infantry & Machine Gun. I also reworked the Mexican Button since I forgot to add the "Multiply" effect last time around.

Why wouldn't people want to play as them?

are you serious?

are you trying to be funny or are you just being ignorant. I take it you're the one who rated Mexico 1 star...

Nice Job !

Try Town plaza as UB

Thanks for the suggestion Kao'chai, while I was adding the town plaza, I've read about the Zocalo (which is like a town plaza) and I've decided to add the Zocalo as a unique building.

You wouldn't have to worry about population problems. In case you have america an an ally, your cities would constantly grow smaller due to people running to join the american cities.

And , since you have no army except for the "druglord" units you can build and the cocaine you can trade as resource, you'd always be broke. tough to play as mexico

hmmm...I don't know if you're being sarcastic or serious ecc...

I can't believe how racist and useless some people have become. It's pretty ugly.

Nice civ!

I apologize for my comment, it did come off sounding racist.

This is a great addition as a civ, very nicely done. Thank you DWOLF.

Does the Zocalo have any unique art?

how do you add this civ to an existing mod such as History int e Making?

Also, it says this mod is not available for download, WTH?!

Maybe a Maquiladora qould be a better unique unit?
Zocalo is a plaza.... in Mexico City.
Maquiladoras are everywhere.
Maybe have it be like a factory that adds an international trade route or something? hmmm....
