Where is the plague

[Nordic Jesus]

Where is the bubonic plague in civ4, sometimes known as the Black Death. Such an influential historic event cannot be left out. Exsample: The plague came to south Britain in December 1348, it had spread to all of the British domain within one year. Probaly it killed 1.4 of 4.2 million inhabitants. THe plague had also inflicted losses on Europe between 541 and 700 AD, wtih 8 to 12 years intervals severly weakening the Byzantine Empier. World wide diseses still couse big problems as has been seen with the aids epidemic.

I believe the negative effects of jungles and floodplain represent 'the plague'.

The health system largely negates any need for this. I suppose you could have a random extra penalty to health sometimes as a 'plague', but a lot of people seem to be against this kind of random event in Civ.

Somebody (I forget who off the top of my head) is working on a random events mod in this thread. It currently only contains the Olympic Games, but he intends to add a number of other events, including plagues.
