So it won't let me extract the civ5mod files. 7zip doesn't work (just puts up a very quick screen saying "wrong command line" then closes) and everything else just gives me the option to compress the files. Mexico and Vietnam work perfectly for some reason.

People assume that when you say "written by the winners" that the history "written by the losers" is instantly the more accurate of the two. The fact is that history is more complex than that. It would be more accurate to say that history is written by the writers. Take for example the Lost...

"History is written by the victors" is crap, btw

So I was thinking about the Cherokee the other day, and thought about this UA: Civilized Tribes - -33% :c5angry: from :tourism: influence. Research technologies faster when being influenced by other Civilizations. So say you're up against Brazil and they've gotten to the "exotic" level of...

Perhaps the Cherokee UA can have something to do with how well they adapted to white culture (That whole "CIVILIZED TRIBES" thing.) Reduced unhappiness from cultural influence, maybe.

Navajo Code Talkers?

How about the Shawnee? Too close to other Algonquins like the Powhatan?

Perhaps Comanche and Huron for the North American Indians?

I personally rename all my cities to CITY 1 CITY 2 CITY 3 etc. because I feel that Firaxis wasted too many resources finding city names.

Maybe Conquest DELUXE will be a Civ two-pack like the original Conquest was.

Also worth noting that Harun, Ramesses, and al-Mansur are all speaking with different dialects. Harun is using modern peninsular Arabic, Ramesses is using Egyptian Arabic filtered through an amazing VA, and al-Mansur is using Moroccan Arabic.

Ramesses voice actor says his lines in a way that makes it sound like ancient Egyptian, though.

America Manifest Destiny - Settlers and Workers build 33% faster, civilian units suffer no movement penalties from forest and hills, -25% cost for border expansion Basically anything to make Manifest Destiny not boring.

Err...I made an attempt.
