Just wondering why you modified the germans, they are my favourites and I would love to play germans against swedes...

 

[ezzlar]

Why not make Karl XII the leader of Sweden and make them as aggressive as the Zulus?
Yes, the Caroline should be the special unit of Sweden....

Ruotsi on maailman paras maa!

Of course we need a Swedish Civilization. Where else would C3CT be developed?

By the way: there is currently no way to add a civ and get the foreign advisor working. Just because the pediaicons.txt doesn't work as it is supposed to.

Isn't somebody making a Finnish civ too? Instead of whining, we Scandinavians (or North Europeans or whatever) should go together and make an Expansion Pack for Northern Europe.

And then we could include the Nokia Phone Factory which is available only to Finland and grants immediate victory.

About the deleted posts: I myself can stand most things, including stereotypical bashing of my nationality. However, such things disgrace and discomfort others.

what file is civ3mod.bic I only see a civ3mod file NO .bic extension to it. Is this the same with or with out the .bic?

I shouldn't try to teach finnish to swedish guys on SpammApolyton-chat...

And if you're going to add Åbo to swedish town, then also add Wasa.

How dare you call Åbo and Wasa Swedish towns. First of all the real name for Åbo is Turku, and both of them are Finnish towns. I can't understand why you swedes can't call these towns with their real names.

Other Finnish towns that were mispelled in this topic:
Wasa -> Vaasa, Helsingfors -> Helsinki, Viborg -> Viipuri, Tavastehus -> Hämeenlinna, Uleåborg -> Oulu

Sarme: You´re missing the point. Those cities were under Swedish rule for a very long time (longer than they have been under independent Finnish rule), and had of course their Swedish names at that time. It´s a bit like the Mongols having cities like Baghdad in Civ2.

And yes, Åbo the other town´s names are indeed their REAL names, just in another language. Your argument is a as stupid as arguing that Finland is a misspelling, since it is called Suomi in Finnish (well, I guess Finnish is also a misspelling). :crazyeyes:

- That quote is actually from a thread, in which I changed Somi to Rosti, and not from the chat. In the chat I only lerant to say goodnight. Too bad I don't remember how.

 

[Zewu]

And yes, I also think that the swedish special unit should be the Caroline.

Varför är det bara norrlänningar som spelar civ???

 

[Optimizer]

About spelling - Civ 3 is (so far only) written in English, so all names should be in their English versions, which, concerning Finland, are mostly identical to the Finnish ones. Translating city names would only make sense if you translate the entire game.

I would say that the city name list should only contain names of cities that were founded by the concerned civ, at best inside its own territory. Thus, cities in Skåne would rather be on the Danes' list.

Det finns väl sörlänningar också, eller?

 

[thealien_83]

Hmmh yes, nothing of importance 'cept to the Swedish lads about.

Vaaddåå bara Norrlänningar? Ska jag bli förolämpad nu eller..?

I have put viking and swedish civilization together and also add Finland to it.
Cities are from all nordic countries. Oslo, Stockholm, Helsinki...and so on...
They are scientific and industrous.
They cannot be militaristic as nordics haven't ever been warmongers. Religious? Hah! Expansionists? Not really...maybe the vikings but otherwise? No...

Gustav II Aadolf is the leader.
Democracy the favorite government.
Communism the shunned.
Some leaders:
Eric the Red
Wasa
Mannerheim


Special units:
Raiders (vikingswordmen ambhious unit)
Drakeships (vikingships like galleys)
Hakkapelitos (Light Cavalry after Gunpowder)

Note that I have added more than one special unit to each civilization. Example War chariots are special unit to more than just one civilization.
I replaced the Babylonians with Nordic people.

I think that could be saved for a possible norwegian civ. If i remember correctly, the swedes went more eastward to Russia, while the norwegians went more by the north sea.

 

[kalinka]

For god's sake!

Sigtuna, is considered the olsdest town of Sweden... Not the biggest, but the oldest... and birka.. an old viking town.

Great mod by the way

P.S. Jakobsberg should be the capital
