Hi guys,
To get myself into modding (I've had a bit of a hiatus since about mid-March), I've started a small scenario set in 1850's Tibet.
The basic idea of the scenario is that there are treasures deep in the Tibetan Plateau, and word has reached the outside world, so many states have sent their own exploration groups to try and claim it. There's the powers you'd expect (Britain, Russia, France, Germany, etc.), powers which you wouldn't expect as much, but are still reasonable (Spain, Austria-Hungary, etc.), and a couple you really wouldn't expect, just because I wanted to use the units for them which are available and/or could think up a good enough reason for being there (Zulu, Mongolia, a Papal expedition group, etc.)
Currently, I use up 19 civilizations, and I want to keep two reserved "just in case".
The reason I'm posting this here, is because I'd eventually like the scenario to be "steampunked up". There are currently 5 "villages" on the map (3 named after real Tibetan villages, but that's where the similarities end), but the map's big enough to accommodate much more, and Shangri-La is currently on my mind as being a city on the map (cities/villages here are more EFZI-style detailed cities than generic Civ3 style single-tile cities). I'd also like to put some steampunk characters on the map (at the moment, every civ is going to have at least some generic characters, so it would be nice to have some non-generic ones as well! ), and there's more than enough room for some steampunk-related civs.
So, anyone interested?
