World War One

[Superdrap]

there are some more city name mistakes

1. Vilinus is really Vilnius
2. Dninopropetrovs'k(actually Dnipropetrivs'k in Ukrainian) was called Yekaterinoslav(in Ukrainian as Katherinoslav)
3. If u use Ukrainian names as Kharkiv or L'viv then use also Kyiv(or Kyyiv) instead of Kiev
4. Quite strange placement of Ufa (it should be moved to east).
5. Russian capital was in St. Petersburg
6. 2 cities Tiflis and Cars must be added in Caucasus as they were the main conflict land between Russia and Ottomans.

Good work luis.
But as far Greece is concerned you have some mistakes.
Thessalonika was Greek during WWI (became Greek during Balcan wars 1912) and that is important because the greek state split with the king in athens staying neutral friendly to germans and Venizelos in Thessalonica driving Greece to war against Germany and Boulgaria (1917). It was a kind of civil war.
Meteora is not a city but monastery-area you better rename them Ioannina wich is one of the big Modern greek cities and geographocaly in that place. I also sugest you have only one citie in Crete "Herakleion" or rename "Iraldia" to this. There no such city.
Minor sugestion. Move sparta 2 tiles up near wines and rename it Patra wich is (and was during WWI) the third city to Athens and Thessalonica while sparta is to small now.
Finally The Island with barbarian camp near Antalaya could be a city named Rodes with greek citizens but unter Italian Ocupation (1912 Dodecanese became Italian (former Ottoman))

Greece declared war on the Central Powers in 1916.

Salonika (spelling) was the second largest city in Greece during WWI, I'm reading a book on WWI right now.

You can't make cities with one civ as an owner and having another civ's citizens.

 

[Iulianus]

I am pretty sure that Greece declared war to Central Powers at 1917 when King Constantine (who was a friend of germans and stayed neutral) left the country and Venizelos returned to athens and declared war. Boulgaria invaded Greece in 1916 but only the north part of the Country fought them back.
Salonika may be right spelling in English but I live in Thessaloniki
"You can't make cities with one civ as an owner and having another civ's citizens." I hope i can in the future

 

[Aussie Fascist]

I know this issue was taken care ALONG time ago but being a bit of historian and an aussie patriot (hence the name) i still wanna say my part.

Putting Egypt under ottoman control is aussie sacralidge!!!
We aussies trained hard in egypt for our part in the Gallipoli campaign, and the thought that our troops were trained in an enemy country in order to fight that same enemy is an outrage.

P.S-im not really mad...i was just using emphasis thats all

Iulanos: Most corrections you pointed will be done in the next version of this scenario, for PTW.

Aussie: In the current version of the scenario Egypt is under british rule.

 

[Kennelly]

Just started playing and it looks pretty good.
If you're going to correct some things,give Germany a North Sea harbour.Of course we also had a Baltic Fleet,but the main intention of Germanys fleet program was to counter the Royal Navy,so in the North Sea on this map.The way it is I have to violate Scandinavian waters constantly to get to the North Sea,so Hamburg should be moved to the North Sea (it's Germanys biggest harbour after all).

 

[luiz]

Ill do that in the PTW version. Thanks for the tips, Kennely

 

[Constantine]

Great secanrio I was wondering if you give me the blank map if you made so i could make a Roman Scenario and if you didn't make tell me where i could get the blank map

 

[luiz]

You can get the map on the CFC download collection. I dont have it at the moment with me, but as soon as I download it I will post it here.

 

[Constantine]

Sorry to be nit picky but withe the forum search feature down could give me the name of the map or the link to the thread with the map in it

 

[hcl2]

Here some corrections and suggestions:

There is no railway connection from Mo i Rana to Narvik, instead there is one from Luleå to Narvik.

Stravanger is called Stavanger, Gavle is called Gävle (or Gaevle), Telleborg is called Trelleborg, Copenhagen is København (or Koebenhavn) in Danish.

Nordkapp is not a city, but just a rock at the northern Coast. You may call that city Tromsø (Tromsoe) or Hammerfest.

You also should change the railway connection in southern Norway, the routes are:

Oslo-Kristiansand-Stavanger
Oslo-Bergen
Oslo-Trondheim

There does not exist a direkt connection from Stavanger to Trondheim via Bergen.

Oslo is called Kristiania in 1913. It was renamed Oslo in 1925.

I think in that days existet even a railway from Luleå to Oulu.

Bordeux is called Bordeaux.

The names of some Italian Cities:
Milano (Milan), Venezia (Venice), Roma (Rome), Genova (Genoa), Firenze (Florence), Napoli (Naples).

Some changes for Austria-Hungary:
Lech is not a big city, just a tourist village. Call it Innsbruck. In German Vienna is called Wien. Prague is Praha in Czech.

Balcane:

Bucharest is called Bucuresti, Belgrade is Beograd. Istanbul was called Konstantinopel in that days (renamed Istanbul in 1930!).

@Constantine (the poster before me): Do you really mean that, or shouldn't it be "Carthago deleta est"

 

[luiz]

Thanks for the corrections hcl2

I am relatively new to Civ3. How did you manage it to get cities into the .bic file?
I have looked around and only found tools to modify savegames. And the original editor is not capable of creating cities, isn't it?

 

[Constantine]

hcl2: to place cities in the editor you click on MAP than set active player near the bottom of the drop down menu. Once you set the civ two boxes that were grayed clear and one is for units and one for cities. These burttons are beside the place overlay button.

Off topic: it is Carthago delenda est! Being said by Cato in the senate bwtween the second and third punic wars.

@Constantine:

Thank you very much, I even don't know why I could not find that buttons!

BTW (Carthago): I thought that you wanted to say something different, cause we lerned in school the citation to be: "Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam".

Moscow wasnt the capital of Russia untill after the Bolshevik revolution which overthrew the monarcy (St. Petersburg was the capital). Not sure if this point has been brought up already because I dont have time to read all of the posts.

Good scenario!

 

[White_Detroiter]

What is with Kiev? It should be in the center of The Ukraine not near Warsaw! But it is hard to make every one happy, so good job anyway. Oh yea one more thing why are there player starting places all around and some nations have none?

 

[White_Detroiter]

And another thing it would be cool to have Russian Rebs all around maybe barbarans with riflemen and more HP?:

:tank:

 

[Sarevok]

are you planning to make a PTW version anytime soon? Im looking forward to a WW1 scenario for PTW that is actually pretty good. (otherwise, I can always do it for you).
