Custom Civs For Download?

[Thrasson]

I'm looking for custom civs for my game. I can't seem to find any. I don't want a whole scenario, just the civs. I will create a few myself eventually; but, I just want to see what's available. Thanks.

Could you please explain what the different values mean. I assume, that the line is found somewhere in rules.txt.

I guess you have modified the Vikings. im planning to do the same and create the danes. Most of the city names can be recycled.

; female: 0 = male 1 = female

; color: Color set (1 - 7)
; style: City style (0 - 3)
; 0 = Bronze Age
; 1 = Classical
; 2 = Far East
; 3 = Medieval
;
; attack: 1 = aggressive -1 = rational
; expand: 1 = expansionist -1 = perfectionist
; civilize: 1 = civilized -1 = militaristic
;
; govt = government type for name replacement (0 = Anarchy, 6 = Democracy)
;
; male, female = titles for leader of government

This is found above "@LEADERS" in rules.txt.
I actually have the vikings left, I changed the Sioux. My problem was that I wanted my new civ to be dark blue, and Sioux was purple, so there were some problems with city flags being one color and the unit color another. There are also some complications if you use odd characters like "å ä ö" in the name of the civilization, i.e. all new cities of that civ was without name. I got help in the scenario creation forum, so try there if you have any problems.

You can get the city names to show up with those funny letters you just need to put the same funny letters in the city text like I did with my custom tribe the Númenóreans, I just needed to put @NúMENóREANS in the city text. Wish I had saved a copy of it before formatting...

Funxus. Did you change the color in cities.gif from purple to darkblue? That way you can have units and city names both darkblue.

I am working on the Canadians for my brother.

And the Pythonians, with towns like "Dead Parrot," "Camelot," and "Something Completely Different."
