CTP2 Expansion Pack

[angrybowen]

Unofficial Expansion Pack for Civilization, Call to Power 2.

If you thought Call to Power II was dead, you couldn`t be more wrong! Enter the Ages of Man. This mod offers such a complete overhaul of the entire game (both graphics and gameplay) that it`s closer to being a sequel or an expansion pack than to a regular mod. A brief overview of the features that this mod will offer:
· Play one of 44 different Nations, each with its own Character
· Succession with Kings and Great Kings
· Bombardment, Counter Bombardment, Sieges, Supply and Supply Trains
· Natural Disasters and Happy Events
· Advances from Goods and Goods that help fight Natural Disasters
· Multi Level Trade including Cartels
· Each Period of History has its own Unique Flavour, Making AOM like 4 games in One
· Quick Start Option and Different Starting Periods
· Elite Troops, Generals, Wonder Units and Historical Heroes with Special Abilities
· Civilisation Traits that Change with the Progress of History and Special Governments
· Prisoners of War, Empire Surrender, Pillaging and Capturing Advances
· Each Major Period of History has a Complete Range of Military Units
· Many New Units are Less Generic and More Historically Accurate
· Major Historical Events such as the Black Death and Mongol Horde
· Aggressive Barbarians and Ai Players
· And Lots More
To promote and distribute his mod, stankarp dedicated a full website to it, with information pages, screenshots, forums, a diary and more. You can also order CDs on this website, both for the original CtP2 game and for Ages of Man. The website is at:

If CTP2 was a medicore game (5/10) compared to Civ II (8/10) or Civ III (9/10), this MOD raises the yardstick to an impressive 8/10 for CTP2. Guaranteed to stop you drooling for the next three months.

Highly recommended and it's free.

You can download it free from Apolyton (albeit you need the original CTP2 game to play it):
