Amnesiac Modder
Adds the Thermae (public baths) as Rome's unique replacement for the Garden. (Yes, this means the Romans get three unique things now; Civ 5 does allow a civilization to have more than two unique units/structures, but the opening screen will normally display only the first two.)

NEW IN THIS VERSION:
P.S. Many thanks to WHoward69 for writing the Agora and Turkish Bath building mods; I used those as a guide to create the Thermae. Also, many thanks to the VRoma.org site for their CGI reconstruction of the Baths of Trajan.
EDIT: The mod is now available from either Steam Workshop or the local Downloads Archive; I've already corrected a small XML error that kept the Baths of Trajan from downloading.
IN-GAME BENEFITS:
- +20% chance of Great People appearing in the surrounding city.
- +1 to local Happiness.
- +1 Gold and +1 Culture per turn; these bonuses double after the player discovers Civil Service.
- Unlike the Garden (which they replace), Thermae can be built in any Roman-controlled city; a natural source of fresh water isn't needed, but the city must already have an Aqueduct.
REQUIREMENTS/BLOCKS:
- This mod requires the Gods and Kings expansion pack.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
- Although it isn't strictly necessary, I recommend using WHoward69's "UI - Multiple Unique Bonuses" mod with this one.
NEW IN THIS VERSION:
- Added a new wonder (the Baths of Trajan) as Rome's special replacement for the Hanging Gardens.
