It seems that mods that add custom graphical elements (mainly units or buildings) won't work with iPad. This has propably something to do with how the modding tools create art files and their lack of compatibility with iOS graphic interfaces (or something like that).
It means that mods like MOAR Units and Steel and Thunder Units are not working (atleast fully). I tried Steel and Thunder and found out that most units that are based on vanilla units do work (explorer, longswords, rider/horseman). Some are ok (mortar, although it's spread on 3 tiles). Some hurt your eyes more (gatling, unplayable) or less (trebuchet) badly and some crash the game (cuirassier), didn't go far enough to see how self propelled artillery looks. Also Religion Expanded won't work (fact) as it adds buildings (presumption). Sadly JFD's Rule with Faith won't work either.
I have only tried 1 UI mod (Better Trade Screen) but it's layout went all over the screen and froze the whole game.
On the other hand many mods that only affect gameplay but not visuals work ok. I'm playing with the following set:
8 Ages of Pace
8 Ages of War
Adaptive Difficulty
AI+
Detailed Worlds (version 1.2)
Historicity++
Immersive Dialogue
Improved Sewers
Incoming Trade Route Gold
Quo's Chiefdom Wildcard
Real Tech Tree
Rhino's City State Balance v1.1
Settlers Retreat
TCS Customizable Warmongering Penalties 1.1
TCS Improved Aerodrome 1.1
TCS Improved Forts and Engineers
TCS Improved Water Yields
TCS Naval Raiders Ignore Borders
Tomatekh's Historical Religions
Toussaint's civilizations also seem to work, I'm currently using his Sioux and Zulu civs. Some of JFD's civs load (tested with Italy) but haven't played with it, may have problems with Unique Units? And some of JFD's leaders (Aztec and China) but I also have yet to actually play with them.
OK weird. There was no update (at least the version number didn't change)... But I can confirm that
Steel and Thunder: Unique Units 1.11
is working... See screenshot of custom unit "Peltast" with custom art.

This is really GREAT!
My pirates still think Black Bart looks like Teddy Roosevelt. Using the same game version as you Chris. Still fun to play tho.
Almost makes me want to get a newer IPad.
Hey Team - I’m having an issue with this game on the new iPad. The game itself doesn’t fill the whole screen (a few mm either side that it doesn’t stretch over).

Any ideas?
P.S Applied the Retina fix in this thread and it looks fantastic. New iPad absolutely flies compared to my old on CIV!
It’s the new 12.9” I’m afraid!
How does the performance compare to the previous 12.9?It’s the new 12.9” I’m afraid!
I’ve since swapped the 12.9 for the 11 as I found the 12.9 a tad big and bulky. Will let you know how it goes on the 11, however I’m assuming it’ll probably run better given its the same internals just lower screen res!
