Installation
1) Put the “European Empires BtS” folder in the folder “Program Files\Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Beyond the Sword\Mods”
2) Start up BtS. Click “Advanced”. Click “Load a Mod”. Click “European Empires BtS”.
3) Click “Start Game”. Click “Scenario”. Click on any one of the four lovely included scenarios.
4) Win!
Random Opponents
This may have already been done, but this is something that makes this mod different than all your run-of-the-mill Europe maps and mods: your opponents aren’t predetermined in the included scenarios. Your opponents are random, but they still start in their traditional starting locations. For example, you could play against Frederick’s Germany (starting in Berlin) or Bismarck’s Germany (starting in Berlin) or no Germany at all – your opponents are random but their starting locations aren’t.
Also, the scenarios do not stipulate that you pick a certain leader. For example, you may pick any French leader to lead your Frenchmen to sweet, juicy victory – and they start in Paris (where else?).
Or, pick your opponents by clicking “Custom Scenario”. I bet everyone will still start out in their traditional spots.
European Religions
This scenario includes six religions important to European history and only certain civilizations may found certain religions (no more Isabella founding Buddhism).
Judaism: founded with the European Diaspora tech. Anybody may found Judaism, but nobody may build Jewish missionaries.
Catholicism: founded with the Council of Nicea tech. Only the Celts, French, Holy Roman Empire, Portuguese, Romans, or Spanish may found Catholicism.
Islam: founded with the Spread of Islam tech. Only the Ottomans or Carthaginians may found Islam.
Orthodox: founded with the Great Schism tech. Only the Byzantines, Russians, or Greeks may found Orthodox.
Calvinism: founded with the Spread of Calvinism tech. Only the English, French (pesky Huguenots!), Dutch, Germans, or Vikings may found Calvinism.
Lutheranism: founded with the Spread of Lutheranism (how fitting) tech. Only the English, Holy Roman Empire, Dutch, Germans, or Vikings may found Lutheranism.
