HECHO IN THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF MECHAERIKISTAN (PRm)

 

[mechaerik]

To Do List:

• Add a second Leader, probably Ahmad Shah Durrani
• Add support for other languages
• Fix the small issue with Amanullah's hands
• Make the Mujahideen stop floating

 

[mechaerik]

Reserved that is all.

Is this mod illegal in Switzerland?

 

[mechaerik]

I'll have to find a way to disable Minarets then.

 

[MadmanOfALeader]

Are you planning on making more civs?

 

[mechaerik]

Not sure. I just made Afghanistan because I think it has an awesome history, and realize that apparently no one had made it before.

 

[The Capo]

Not really a civ I'd probably ever use myself, but this could certainly be a good addition to any type of modern world mod, or if someone were to be so bold as to make a "war on terror" mod or something like that (maybe a what-if world war 3 mod) it would be pretty sweet.

Having said that, everything looks really good. High quality work man, as usual.

LOL, did you see that last episode of the Daily Show when John Oliver asks the Swiss ambassador about Hitler. That was hilarious.

 

[mechaerik]

Aw man, I knew I'd mess up somewhere. The Sash colors are off, but i have here the correct texture. I'll fix the upload tomorrow.

I was planning a Durranni civ (closest thing to an actual Afghan Empire, in the 1700s) for Civ of the Week waaay down... But guess you half-did it first. I'll still probably try to make the Durranni, anyhow. Good job, anyways!

 

[Ekmek]

excellent! the LH looks great - it looks like you have the skeleton swapping down.

Question... fishing as a starting tech?
Its a land locked country that has a few minor bodies of water in it.
Agriculture would be better... before the Mongols destroyed the irrigation system, Afghanistan was rather fertile.

 

[mechaerik]

.... Ummm....... it was........ an aesthetic choice?

Yeah, thats it. Yeah. Aesthetics. I like the button. Yeah, that's it.

Well, I will say, your art does look good!

 

[The Capo]

That's okay mechaerik, I'd be lying if I said I haven't forgot to change the starting techs on some of my modules. In fact I forgot to change the Sioux' starting techs in my last playtest for the mod (it's still hunting and FISHING). Although the Sioux with fishing probably isn't as bad as the Afghans with fishing.

Montana doesn't have an ocean, but does have rivers from which you can get fish!

By that logic nearly every civ should start with fishing. My main point was that fishing wasn't a major attribute of the Sioux, there are better options than fishing for them. Besides if I gave them Hunting and Fishing they'd have the same starting techs as the Iroquois.

 

[MadmanOfALeader]

You're right.

Yes, fishing specially allows the working of deep (as well as salty) waters.
