- version tested: Unknown, Perhaps 1.0 - originality mark: 7 - playability mark: 2 - customization (rules) mark: 7 - customization(art) mark: 2 - accuracy mark: N/A - comments: Interesting concept and potentially a cool mod. The BIG drawback is that playing as Lord British is near...

Agreed: Veteran bomber wings should have a 108 atk. Throw in naval support (esp battleship navies) and you should be okay. If you're away from water, (hence no naval support) bombers can be used to great effect; alternatively the spy + artillery tactic will be a boon; but beware, the spy's...

I take no offense, especially after you explained your reasoning; I also am frustrated at multiplayers who bail after a few turns :mad:. I think that the wrong map in a situation like this is like having a sandy foundation when trying to build a skyscraper; if the base isn't right, the...

You are, of course, entitled to your opinion.

I was initially worried about the requirements for "Power never takes a Backward Step" ach; not being able to settle another city is a serious handicap! But on the way to unlocking the "So that we may live in peace" ach, I unlocked the "Power" ach as well. Here's what I learned through about...

No problem, I'm not having any financial difficulty in the least - well, as long as I have Camel Grazing ;) - and have financially dominated the game several times. My new goal is conquest. It's slow going, but the Beduin Horsemen are PERFECT for countering those pesky Imperial Horse Archers...

AWESOME! Thanks! I'll check it out.

Hi all, I looked through most of these and have a few requests for Scenarios. If you do these, or think they are good ideas, please drop me a note, I'd love to help/hear from you. (Preferably in Warlords or plain CIV4, since I can't run BTS) BTW, I suck at programming or I'd do it myself...

Ustaz Gordon: I was happily surprised (though I suppose I should not have been) that al-Tabari was one of the chroniclers of Civilizations in the game - excellent detail! A couple of points I'd like to bring up: 1) the game is incredibly awesome, very detailed, and wonderfully executed. Thank...

Hey Gordon! As a scholar of the Middle East, I have to say this mod is FANTASTIC - I really appreciate your work and research. Salam Aleykum!
