Yes, I have the Kruger LH animation. I just used my own button. All 3 LHs are animated actually.

[kochman]

upgraded the buttons to the right size, changed art for the mineral mine, made LH text more uniform.

I think Mandela should be a leader for this civ.

It wouldn't be an Afrikaner civ then!

[The Capo]

It says S. Africa/Afrikaaner civ. And in the Pedia screen says South African Empire.

[kochman]

He could definitely qualify for the civ, as it is... I just think that 3 leaders were enough... and I honestly think that the other 3 did more for the build up of the civilization.
Mandela, to me, is a civil rights leader. He made president, but the rate of decline for that nation, during his presidency, was pretty startling... and hasn't gotten any better since.
His civil rights makes him famous... but civil rights leaders aren't something that I consider to be leader material in Civ...

And I was just joking of course, I couldn't resist to do that

Btw, you should write all your modular civs in your signature.
I think there are 8 of them already, and it is easier to find them that way!

[kochman]

That's not a bad idea... maybe I will do that tomorrow when I am bored... as for now, going to watch the Sopranos and eat some indian food.

Hey man! I'm working on a South African Wars Mod! Would you be any chance be able to create a South African Republic/Transvaal civilization and a Orange Free State civilization? I was thinking for Rhodesia just to rename England.

Should it be "Republic of South Africa" or "Union of South Africa" ? It depends on the time period. Unless it was a Afrikaner/Boer civilization.

I can do this for you, but I am a bit backed up now, about 6 civs ahead of those.
Remind me again in a few weeks.

sure thing!

[kochman]

Made some changes to the leaders, added data about leaders and unique assets, as well as more screen shots.
Enjoy!

I have a much better Smuts sitting around on my computer, I don't know who made it but it looks better than the Muir LH you are using... much better.

[Manifold]

hey The_Capo, the General Smuts has some similarities to your picture, but he need a hat, or?

I would be happy to use it if you would be kind enough to send it to me.
