So, if you've been to some of the links in my sig, checked out the "New Civilizations/Leaders Wanted" thread, or seen some of Pouakai or sukritact's posts, you probably know that there is a modding group in progress for a series of civilizations and scenarios known as Terra Novus.
If not, check out these links:
Pasifika - Dev Thread.
Terra Novus Modder's Group
Terra Novus will be a mod (Or, more accurately a series of mods (Modpack, perhaps?)), devoted to bringing you new civilizations and scenarios from lesser-represented regions of the world (The Americas, Africa, the Pacific, Oceania, Southern and Eastern Asia...)
Currently, two major components of Terra Novus (Pasifika, which I am leading, dealing with the Pacific and Oceania, and Zambezi, which Pouakai is leading, dealing with Africa) are in progress.
Why go through that long spiel?
Well, in the development of Terra Novus, the modders felt it would be a good idea to include some more modern civilizations from those regions, as well, since there is a demand for them. However, as not everyone likes those nations, and some people are strongly opposed to starting in 4000 BC with, say, South Africa, we decided to make a seperate pack for those nations. It will not come with a scenario.
This thread is for suggesting your ideas on civilizations and unique components for this sub-mod. A list will be compiled, though, especially when it comes to UAs and UIs, remember that we are restricted in some ways. Please stay away from European or Middle Eastern civilizations, as they will likely not be added.
When it is decided upon, the name of the sub-mod will be posted here, as well.
