You obviously need a refresher on your Canadian geography. :hmm:

It is not a scenario. Every game starts from scratch. What you see in screenshots are the actual games that I played for testing purposes. I can't control where AI build their cities.
 
I'd suggest some Indigenous Western Hemisphere civilizations, myself. Even by the 18th Century, they hadn't all been wiped out (in the terms of CivII civilizations being wiped out, at least). A fair number of them still held their ancestral homelands, like the Inuit, Aleuts, and Northern Tribes, Northwest Pacific Tribes, Navajo, Apache, Commanche, etc., Cherokee, Creek, Iroquois, and Objibawa in some areas, Amazonian Tribes, Miskito, and far south tribes like Mapuche, Guarani, Yamana, etc., or, like the Council of Seven Fires or Iron Confederacy, for examples, moved away from initial European settled lands to what were then sparsely inhabited areas. A few Maya Kingdoms remained unconquered in that Century, and the Seminole Nation has just having it's ethnogenesis from fractured tribes in what is now the Southeast US and apparently a fair number of escaped Black Slaves, formed in what is now Florida. They held and governed these lands at this time as effectively sovereign nations, despite the claimed borders and claims on European maps at that time.

For some land action on a single North American continent it'd be a nice addition. Since British and Spanish had settlements on separate continents it also would have to be a scenario. Leaving outer world a bit vacuous I'm afraid. Tech tree ending somewhere in 1900s probably, because I don't see Cherokee building planes and nuclear bombs, whereas game is favoring 20th century intercontinental action.
 
Well, the Cherokee didn't in the RW timeline, but, in true Civ2 fashion, if they clung to their lands, traded techs with the White Man, ran caravans, sent beautiful spies (my girlfriend is Native, so I have an appretiation for their beauty, at least) to steal techs, and such, you never know, within the axioms of a Civ2 mod... ;)
 
If anyone's interested here's the game. I made it self-extracting click and play.

Edit: Re-up
 
What the Hell? I get a message demanding me to "insert a disk" to be able to extract the contents of the file. I think it's literally been well over a decade since an error message on my computer instructed me to "insert a disk" to continue... :confused:

That's strange. Put it in New Folder, right click on a file and choose "extract here".
 
EDIT: 1.5 is up.

Posting a link might have helped lol but I found your download page here:

And saw that rather impressive cover you made:

I thought for one sec after seeing it that this was some huge Civ2 overhaul project by the SL as the credits section is filled with SL members. However I realise now after finding this quiet thread that this project is yours and you were just crediting all those other names due to using their excellent art assets.

Anyway what a strange but interesting project... it's almost like a hybrid of a regular Earth game start anew, Colonization scenarios, American Civil War scenarios, WW2 scenarios, and modern warfare scenarios. All with some rather nice custom graphics!

It's a shame you didn't finish it since as strange as it is, I find myself wanting to play it lol!
