GAIA for Civilization V - Brave New World
beta (v. 8) - 06.10.2015 - 00:00 Uhr (CET)



GAIA - epic: new goals, new opportunities
GAIA is an epic mod which changes many aspects from Antiquity to Information Age of the game and creates new opportunities. The focus is on additional content such as units and buildings in order to improve the game experience.
It is a further development of my mod with the same name for Civilization III - Conquests, which was published first in 2007.
