Could you mabye make a native american civ? I find that as a european civ (spain especially but really any of the ones given colonising galleons) that you can take most america very quickly, the barbarian cities only have archers, you can penetrate too easily.
And then we can have dog soliders raiding workers from the rifle bearing spanish in mexico ^^
Apart from that minor quibble, great mod and scenario. It takes a while for the other civs to get moving but in my most recent game as spain, france and britain have started racing to colonise eastern america(I've already taken the rest of it)' they both have 2 cities each currently. The germans and papal states have set up colonies in brazil, the indians are working on indonesia/phillipines; and the light blue(most southern) indians have started to settle austrailia, russia's started expanding eastwards, and the hungarians have somehow become 5th in score, taking the balkans from the ottomans(I think the papal states and venice sent some suicide missions against the ottos, softening them up. Hungary is currently at war with poland, who hasn't colonised but did a good job improving their lands. All we need now is for russia/the HRE to declare on poland so they can partition it =]
Babur didn't go very far into the lodhi, he took lahore and stopped, they capitulated but they recently rebelled, there's a new war there so hopefully the mughal empire will get bigger soon :]
I took the aztec/maya lands very quickly, them split the guys up and sent the more promoted ones to attack the inca, the rest(mostly from the small caribbean cities) took the little barbarian cities.
After I'd taken over the readily available cities, I sent as many conqs back as I could, and took venice for myself, they're still around in the med though, there are a few privateers I think belong to them : p
Portugal took meeca and aden as per normal, but after I took venice I wheeled around and took their european cities, so they shouldn't be a rival now.
IN east asia, the koreans held on, it doesn't look like japan really did much other than unify themselves. The mongols seem to have done best, they took a fair chunk out of western china, my explorer noted that xian had 1% mongolian culture in it(china no doubt asked for it in return for peace) the jurchens haven't done anything important =\
Malacca seems very weak : [ thailand vassled themselves off to china already. CHina is pretty much intact apart from the north west/mongolia area.
In an odd twist, the french declared war on the central asian turks, took 2 of their cities and vassalised them, after that the turks founded a new city in siberia but have been quiet since.
Im currently wondering where the danish/swedes planted their settlers, must go get a new world map...
Great game
This could keep my colonial expenses to almost a minimum in Europe 
Someone reinstalled the game, and deleted the saved games in the process
