[BTS] Warhammer FB Version 1.5

Gonna check out the new alpha version :)
It is compatible with 3.19, right?
 
No, not quite, but we have solved the major bugs that have been preventing progress. Now we can get back to putting features in and have a release soon.
 
Dude... a such thing you make the whole civfanatics go down!
Do you think money grows on trees? >=(
 
So, uh, are you gonna plant the dollar tree then? Cuz I ain't digging a hole, putting the sapling in it. And I sure as hell ain't watering it, jeese; every time you do, the fricking money gets so soaked. And no one likes crinkley money fruits.
 
Yeah, I loved it when NZ when to plastic notes. Those things are basically indestructible. Now I have to deal with lame-o greenbacks. All the US money is the same color and size... how boring.
 
And it's all fricking green!
 
Has taken a while to make sense of the 'paper trail' through all the old threads and different versions after all these years so correct me if I'm wrong on and anything and please let me know if you have the missing files and I can arrange new hosting here at CivFanatics and elsewhere to make sure they're not lost again..

There was originally a Warhammer Fantasy Battles for Vanilla Civ 4 released and then later removed due to being superseded.

Then there was a Warhammer Fantasy Battles for Civ4 Warlords released with a extra sound addon which had it's own separate thread here. However sadly the downloads are long gone, there's no webarcive backups and these releases have been lost.

Then there was a Warhammer Fantasy Battles for Civ4 Beyond The Sword 3.17 released using FFH in a old separate thread here by @Ploeperpengel . Good news is I have fixed the broken image and downloads for version 0.13 and Patch E here & on the download page so thankfully this version is not lost. However it is highly unstable due to being a beta and for a older version of Civ4 BTS. There was a Patch F in the making but it was not released.

Presumably while in the process of making Patch F the project was merged with the Warhammer Mini mod project by @Psychic_Llamas which had it's own separate thread here. He did a 1.2 release and was up to a Patch C however sadly despite using the atomic gamer archive trick I was unable to rescue either file and these releases have been lost.

Presumably the merger project originally kept the Warhammer Fantasy Battles name but took on the Mini projects version numbers and had a 1.4 release with a extra sound addon in a new seperate thread here. However sadly the filefront downloads are long gone and these releases have been lost. According to the filefront webarchive backup page the download was called Warhammer_1.4.zip and was 201.31 MB. There was a Patch A released however it broke the mod and was removed from the thread but the download remains here. There was a Patch B in the making with a long list of changes but it was not released.

Presumably while in the process of making Warhammer Fantasy Battles 1.4 patch B they pivoted again and had a new version 1.5 release with a extra sound addon in this very thread you're reading this in now. Although the thread text doesn't match the thread title and says version 0.03 Alpha just to make things extra confusing lol, and I can see in the webarchive backup page that the original thread text said 1.5 as well so presumably the version numbers were 'back changed' with a future project name change. Sadly despite using the atomic gamer archive trick I was unable to rescue the files and these releases have been lost. There this a Patch A and a Patch B (not mentioned in the thread) hosted on CivFanatics but they are useless without the original main version 1.5 (0.03 Alpha) release.

Presumably while in the process of making Warhammer Fantasy Battles 1.5 (0.03 Alpha) patch B they pivoted again and the project was renamed to Warhammer Heart of Chaos, the a new version system was implemented, and had a new version 0.04 Alpha release with a extra sound addon in a new separate thread here. This is apparently the first version of the project compatible with Civ4 Beyond The Sword 3.19 (all the earlier versions including up to 1.5/0.03 Alpha will crash). However sadly the Megaupload downloads are long gone, there's no webarcive backups and these releases have been lost. There this a Patch A hosted on CivFanatics and a Patch B on Megaupload meaning it's also lost, but they are useless without the original main version 0.04 Alpha release. This appears to be the final version of the project so it is a real shame that both this release and it's final patch are currently lost!

EDIT: Looks like there were 0.01 and 0.02 Alpha releases between Warhammer Fantasy Battles 1.5 and Warhammer Heart of Chaos 0.03 Alpha after all! Using the atomic gamer archive trick I was I was able to rescue their files so thankfully this version is not lost. However I'm not sure yet if they're compatible with BTS 3.19 as we know it happened after 1.5 and before 0.03 Alpha. Download and more details here.

So if anyone happens to have the final Warhammer Heart of Chaos 0.04 Alpha release and Patch B & it's sound addon, or the previous 0.03 Alpha release, or even the earlier Warhammer Fantasy Battles 1.5 or 1.4 versions please let me know and I can arrange new hosting here at CivFanatics and elsewhere to make sure they're not lost again.
