Angst
Rambling and inconsistent
The idea has been proposed by me once, and the fact that I myself am terrible with Civ4 modding aside, it would be a fun thing to do. It would be based upon the Civ4 regular engine, but instead of the Civ4 civilizations, we would have NESer civilizations instead.
Generally, your personal civ would be lead by you as your leaderhead. However, I'm going ahead of myself; the following would be the format of the eventual mod.
The Leaderhead
Leader: Yea, your account name goes here.
Traits: Here goes the two traits of your leader. The traits are listed below:
Theme: LINK YOUR MUSICAL THEME HERE. That is all.
Favorite civic: Your favorite civic; I won't bother linking these though.
The leaderhead should represent your NESing style as specifically as possible, directly or indirectly; charismatic might represent you as a good diplomat while aggressive is for warmongers, imperialistic is obvious, creative is for storyists and people who care about culture, etc. etc.
Now, the second important issue. Your CIVILIZATION. I believe that each leaederhead should be represented by an appropriate civilization that could show the "peak" of the NESer's abilities; Fx. Crezth's France in ABNW. LINES II must have lots of those heyday nations that players would approve of representing their NESing 'careers'.
Civilization: The civilization name.
Colour: Duh. Doesn't necessarily count on the original colour of the civ.
Flag: Post a link.
Unique Unit: A unit that represents the civilization's strength or military; for example, inspired from N3S, the Satar might have an improved Horse Archer, while the Krato have excellent War Elephants, the Hu'ut)) have a powerful Chariot, and the Trilui have perhaps an improved Work Boat to show their naval trading skills (Ok then, a basic Galley UU might matter as well, but I needed to show something that wasn't military).
Unique Building: A building/construction that represents the civilization in some other way; the Faron might have a Theater building, while the Trilui had some sort of trading post, or an improved Lighthouse.
I would personally prefer sticking to 'regular' NESes to keep stuff in flavor.
How would yours look?
