What is Glory and Greatness
Glory and Greatness is 40 civilizations (the base 34 plus 6 new) reworked. Each civilization has 3 Unique Abilities, 1-2 Unique Buildings and 2-3 Unique Units. Each civilization has only one leader.
Glory and Greatness also updates much of the art in Civ IV, using Blue Marble Terrain and has six complete Unit and City Artstyles: European, Greco Roman, South American, Middle East, Asian, and African. All people units except for Missionaries and Executives are ethnically diverse, and all wooden ships are as well except for Privateers (if you're playing a smaller map and there's only 1 African civ and an African-styled Privateer comes up, let's just say it swiftly negates the advantage of a unit without Nationality). Further several wonders have simply had their artwork upgraded or replaced. Finally, every leader has been plussed to some extent, or is completely new (like Alexander and Catherine).
Glory and Greatness extends your game into the Future, with Futuristic Units, Techs, Buildings and Wonders. All of the Mod Next War is added in plus extra features to round it out.
Finally, Glory and Greatness brings new wonders, terrain, resource, units, buildings, and other such things to round out gameplay.
Some Instructions
Please Note that Glory and Greatness is for BTS 3.19. Please note that it has Custom Python, DLL, and XML so it most likely will not run on a Mac. Also, if you play a Custom Game using Glory and Greatness do NOT use unrestricted leaders, nor should you turn off espionage. Doing so may ruin game balance and gameplay.
To install Glory and Greatness, place this unzipped folder into Sid Meier's Civilization IV/Beyond the Sword/Mods. Please note that mods placed in the My Games/Beyond the Sword/Mods directory do not work. Included in the folder is a shortcut button that may or may not work depending on your computer's set up. However, just open your copy of Beyond the Sword and select "Advanced", then "Load a Mod", and then choose "Glory and Greatness" and you should be up and running.

The_J for his invisible techs and tech support.
Geomodder for Cultural Citystyles, from which many of the new buildings come from.
Ekmek, Sabioleth, Refar, MethylOrange and Nitram15 for Leaderheads and LH tutorials.
