Screenshots are below. Please note that version 2.0 for Warlords only has one unique unit, the Dromon. I did this to bring this civ in line with the retail civs which only have one UU. In version 1.1 (vanilla civ4) and in my modpack, Byzantium will have two Unique Units.

Byzantium for Civilization IV Warlords
Version 2.3 by Amra
Info
-----
This will add Byzantium to Civ4 Warlords. It includes 2 animated leaders (Theodora & Basil II), 1 Unique Unit (Dromon), 1 Unique Building (Theodosian Walls) and Pedia entries for all. Feel free to use this in whatever modpack you may be making or to modify the civ as you see fit.
Installation
------------
Extract this file to your Warlords "Mods" folder within the game directory. For example, C:\Program Files\Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Warlords\MODS. It should create a folder called "Amra's Byzantium" that will include all of the modified files. In game, click on "Advanced" and then "Load a Mod" to play. You may have to hold the shift key down when restarting Civ4 in order to clear the cache.
For easier cutting & pasting into your own modpack, I've noted changes made by me to the xml files in the "XML Changes.txt" file. This file does not list changes made to CIV4FormationInfos.xml as changes to this file are made in several places.
