Europe mod

Glad to see fellow countryman, who woke up to the idea of including mighty medieval Lithuania into the list of European powers. Since Civ3 spans through ages, you might include another special unit, appearing in 1980s, that is "basketball player" :). And don't even think about striking Lithuania out for the sake of latvias and albanias of the world!
 
Great looking mod! It's about time somebody accounts for some of the smaller, yet just as historically important civilizations in history!
 
The Swedish special unit should, according to the opinions of Swedish posters, be a mobile cannon or a dragoon.

Transport ships are not that good as special units because they must win a battle to trigger a golden age.

To please A. H. one should make a patch with only three civs - Finland, Sweden and the Rest of the World. Finland would have all imaginable advantages. Sweden would be really bad, and unable to increase its population (for reasons known to A. H. and his friends). Then A. H. could let his aggressions on virtual Swedes instead of real ones, but that is another story.

You seem to be a good expert of finnish culture :goodjob:
Right, if you wanna have Sweden+Finland as "Sweden", then you should have Denmark+Norway as "Denmark".
But, you could also just scrap that and put "Vikings" As Norway+Denmark+Sweden",
and melt the Finland inside "Russia".

Just to make it more confusing.

You really are expert on finnish 'humor', arent you ;) :D
 
When you start talking about Yugoslavia things just cant be simple. Yugoslavia consisted of 6 countries (Bosnia, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Slovenia and Serbia). Montenegro is probably the oldest, Bosnia under Tvrtko was the only one that covered more than half the teritory of what later became Yugoslavia, Croatia was very important part of Austro-hungarian empire and played a very important role in the area in WW2 and kept a strong border with Otoman empire for centuries, Slovenia is the most succesfull nowdays... Serbia was also important throughout the history but only as Yugoslavia these six countries gained some real significance. This may be coming little too late but I vote for Tito and Yugoslavia.

SWEDEN (IROQUOIS)
industrious/scientific; Gustav Vasa; Longship (1.1.4.2 Galley, can't sink)
---

I guess this quite funny/ironic as the swedish flagship "Wasa" sunk like 15 minutes after it was put to sea. LOL!
 
Do you know of a Europe map that sets the countries up in the right places? If you do could you either post it here or post where to get it from.
Thanks.
 
about sweden.

first, gustav vasa was like a swedish george washington, but most persons with large interest in history agrees with me that gustav II adolf is the greatest and most famous leader sweden ever had.

second, the longship doesn´t suit the swedes, because it was the danish and norweigan vikings that traveled west when the the swedish went south east.

but, you are free to use my mod.:D a second version of it is on the way.
 
Ukraine, while being a very distinct culture and having a few times of indenpendance, the majority of the history, they have been part of Poland, Lithuania, Russia, and the Ottoman Empire. I also think that this area would be a bit too crowded and of all the civis in tha area, Poland, Baltic States (or Lithuania), and Russia, Ukraine makes the most sense as the one to take out.

I think the Ukraine is a good idea, because it could represent all the people of the steppes who had influenced so much of Europes history. Plus if you got rid of the Ukraine it would not reduce the crowding in the northern part of that area, where Poland, Russia, and the Baltics are, so it would make the most sense to get rid of the Baltics. This would put some even space between Poland Russia and the Ukraine. No offense to anyone from the Baltics, but they haven't had as much impact on history as Poland, Russia, or the various peoples of the steppes (yes I know Lithuania had its moments, but so did all of them).
 
Hi there,
the idea of continental specific mods is great :goodjob: ,
but hystorically the leader and the specific unit for Italy in the Europe mod is not correct. Caesar and the legion were Roman, not Italian, at least as we mean it today. So as an Italian leader I would suggest either king Victor Emanuel II, the first king of the Italian Kingdom proclaimed in 1861, or general Giuseppe Garibaldi, a key player in unification of the Country serving under Victor Emanuel.
As a specific unit I would suggest either the Alpini (alpine troups) or the Bersaglieri. The choice is not easy since both are glorious units in real life. Personally I would choose the Bersaglieri since they constituted the army of king Victor Emanuel and they were the first soldiers entering in Rome in 1870 through a breach in the defensive wall, thus conquering the city and giving the young kingdom its rightful capital.
Cheers.

I don't think every Swede would agree about that. Gustav II Adolf were a leader of wartimes. Gustav Vasa was what you could call a "landsfader" (father of land) who at sometimes counts as the one person who created modern Sweden. Yeah, I kknow this is mainly an opinion about personal view but still. Then we have some element who surely would like to claim Karl XII as the greatest leader of Sweden :king:
 
I've clicked on the link that you've posted, but it only takes me to the top of this page. I've downloaded your mod but Italy still sets up in Russia. Is this just my game or is this a mistake? If this is a mistake please could you tell me where it should take me to. Anyway, I definately agree with Cincinnatus that Caesar is not the Italian leader and I think it would be great if you could do what he said.
Thanks again.

If I use the Civ Copy Tool to add civs, that crashes my game. So if that's the way they do it, that won't help much. I'll try to find what they are suggesting, but I'm afraid it's that.

P.S. Stay tuned for my "European nations which no one give a rat's ass about" patch starring Finland, Moldavia, Malta, Liechtenstein, and of course, Albania. :)

Hey! I care about Malta! :)

Well, it´s not too difficult to change the civs, so if I ever wanted to play Malta, I could create the civ myself. Just couldn´t let that comment of yours stand alone.
 
The Scottish UU, highlander is 2-1-1...

why???

What weapons are they using exactly?

What period in history do you imagine them existing in?

You seem to have them down as a stone-age or bronze-age unit.
There was no Scottish nation during this period. Scotland only emerged as a Kingdom in the middle ages.

Highlanders became truely prominent in the British Empire which would make them Riflemen or something....
