very good but too young ;)
 
Rhye are you going to help the Iroquois ? Cause they devellop only one city and to be honnest, Canada is the second biggest country on earth... Iroquois should be able to build and expand like Russia... Anyway Iroquois are less agressiv then any other civilization... it's not going to be bad for anyone.
Maybe you should give more respect to the canadian people and help the iroquois :rolleyes: It really suck to see the Iroquois with only one city around 1600 with 2, 3 or 4 of population... The inca and aztec are stronger then the Iroquois :lol: :lol: :confused:
 
Iroquois can expand just fine, they just have to wipe out the americans and barbarians first. They don't represent Canada sosaying the Iroquois civ should resemble modern Canada doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

Don't forget that one of the goals of this mod is to be historically realistic. Euro and Asian civs should have the easiest time and civs in the americas should be backwards. If the AI was doing really well as an american or african civ then there'd something to fix. As it is, most civs seem to be balanced very well.

Part of the fun of this mod is overcoming some of the major terrain and isolation difficulties that civs outside of Europe and Asia face.
 
Iroquois aren't Canada. I have removed one barbarian camp as you asked me, but their expansion is good as it is. And why not, the Incas and Aztecs were stronger than Iroquois because they had a large empire. Iroquois was only a tribe. Probably the most civilized tribe, one of the most important N.American tribes. But they AREN'T Canada!!

And about France: I made them weaker editing 3 tiles (each tile near a city). But I see that Iztvan always conquers France, and in Horton's story France get conquered by Rome. So I decided to edit only 1 tile.
 
I'll post it soon. By Saturday at the latest.

I am having trouble posting my screenshots so I'll try to fix them too. I'll work on some strategy guides this weekend too. I just finished two really great games as China and the Romans.

On a side note, I think France is tuned just fine. Unless I am playing as a Euro civ they always do well and wind up in the first or second tier of AI. Most of the Euro civs seem very well tuned to me. In any given game any one of the Euro civs can be a runaway power and then in the next game they get demolished.

IMO, the only reason to really tinker with the territory around a particular civ at this point is to make them more fun for a human player and even that isn't a huge priority. I have played almost all the civs through the ancient age and there are only a handful that are really bad off.

The only thing I'd ask you to look into is possibly adjusting the OCN. As it stands, it is very difficult to build a large empire that is even somewhat prosperous without going communist.

The best idea should be to rename Iroquois for Canada (there is a Leaderhead available on this forum for Trudeau, leader of Canada) cause i don't see any Iroquois around here since 400 years. As for the barabrian camp, that should fix the expension problem for sure and make the game more fun. My opinion is that Canada is one of the most important country since 1900 and it should be in the game... Barbarian camp can represent the iroquois easily cause we still fight with them today... People from Kanesatake (town in quebec) are doing a little war against quebec since 1998... nothing big but they are blocking road and let noone enter on their territory... they don't have police and the leader is still an iroquois.

It was nothing really big, i'm sure everything's gonna fine about french now.
 
I'm sorry.
I will be more than happy if you put Canada in your alternative version. But I will never put them in the main mod. Canada isn't one of the 31 most important civs in History. That's all. I know you're canadian, but it would be like if I put Etruscans in just because I'm from Tuscany.
 
I am currenlty playing a game on Monarch as the...furniture... Ottomans, thats the word! I have conquered in order: Babylonians, Byzantines, Sumerians, and am currently involved in wars with Arabia and Persia(I have captured one city from Arabs and 3 from Persia) I was lucky early on to build 3 wonders in the ancient age: The Great Library, The Pyramids, and The Statue of Zues. By the late ancient age I was pumping out 3/2/2 's like crazy :crazyeye: The elephant archer and the ancient cavalry! It is currently 390 AD and I am bordering the Industrial Age. France was wiped out a few turns ago by the rampaging Germans :lol: They don't seem to to do very good :rolleyes: The Ottoman UU is very powerful! 7/3/2!!! I have about 5 right now and they are kicking....butt.

Is it just me or does India never build cities on its penninsula? Anyway, i'll let you know how the game progresses, Thanks Rhye! :goodjob:

You just insult the 4th of the TOP 5 nation from the United Nation in the world... congratulation, you just lose me on that one.

BTW, it's right to say that washington has been found in 4000BC... that's exactly what happend :lol:

I'm not insulting you and I'm not insulting Canada. When you open an history book Canada is mentioned no more than 10 times (except perhaps in Canadian books), and that's not my will or my fault.
That's ok you know, i'm just defending my country. I just want to play my nation and i know some people would be happy to deal with Canadian instead of the Weak Iroquois tribes with one town and 2 of population.

Short story about Canada and America :
"The complete history of neither Canada nor the United States can be studied without reference to the history of the other. Each is today an independent nation. Each, however, achieved its independence by a completely different path--Canada by gradual constitutional change spread over many years, the United States by a single great War of Independence. "

"The first Europeans to arrive in North America -- at least the first for whom there is solid evidence -- were Norse, traveling west from Greenland, where Erik the Red had founded a settlement around the year 985. In 1001 his son Leif is thought to have explored the northeast coast of what is now Canada and spent at least one winter there."

"In the early 1500s, Jacques Cartier used a First Nations word for village, “kanata”, to refer to the country he had encountered. European map makers later used “Canada” as a name for all the land north of the St. Lawrence River. "

"The word America have been use only since 1522."

So, iboltscrew... Are you still going to make this Napoleon Leaderhead then?
Yes, I still want to make this mod better for Rhye. He put a lot of time to make it and if i can help, i would be glad to do it... even if Canada is not in his mod. The French leaderhead should be usufull for a lot of moder and i'm sure a lot of poeple will appreciate it.
 
I'm not sure about the program i need to make the leaderhead but i just found Poser 5.0 and Victoria 3.0 poser. I'm downloading it and i should be able to start the work tonight or tommorrow... the Leaderhead should be ready very soon now that i found the program i need. For sure, Rhye will be the one who will decide wich leaderhead's gonna be the best. I will do one for Napoleon and one for Louis XIV. I think Louis XIV should be the leader of France but Napoleon is still a very good choice.
 
I have got Poser. Perhaps an old version, but it's very difficult to use. It's very easy to create monsters :)
If you have broadband, I can send it if needed.
I tried Napoleon with PES3 but the result wasn't good. Louis XIV was much more close to the original.

About Canada, you already know: if you make an alternative version, it will have its own place in the site.
