Generalspecific, while this is way out of my league at this point, and while the mod is fairly linear, I just had an idea- to at least slightly simulate this, perhaps I should get rid of the tech tree screen? That way nothing has to be changed, but you won't be able to 'plan' out your technological ...

Currently, there are only unit groups for Egypt, Zulu, Mali, Ethiopia and Generic African. Those are the only ones that have already been made. If you want, we can split Generic African into North African, West African (non-muslim), Central African. It's up to you- I'd have to do the artwork for the...

Hmm, I still don't get the South Africa being in top 5 civs. That would be insanely difficult. Plus your info relates it to Africa, not the rest of the world. Even Nigeria I would tone down, to maybe "be in top 8." Partly because the goal is to be level with countries in the G8. I still th...

I have noted any issues (using colours and bold) that need to be addressed in the first post of your Africa info, when you have time please address them and then delete my added writing. After that I will reinsert what I stored in the above post- I ran out of characters.

TEMPORARY STORAGE POST The Republic of South Africa, also known by other official names, is a country located at the southern tip of the continent of Africa. The discovery of diamonds and later gold triggered the conflict known as the Anglo-Boer War, as the Boers and the British fought for the contr...

Well, Grishnash, perhaps Aksum was just an era in Ethiopian history, and was sort of an early form of the Ethiopian Empire, but they are still two seperate names, so I think it would be best to combine it, but use a name change. However, I do want the UUs from both in the new combined Ethiopia. So t...

HURON The Huron, or Wendat, were a confederacy of four tribes in Ontario, Quebec and nearby states, formed perhaps a little after 1450. Hurons were farmers who also fished and hunted. They lived in Iroquoian longhouses, and were fairly healthy. The Huron had a long time enemy in the Iroquois, and wh...

I think it would be fair to say that Garamentes be an independent (minor) civ. I have a big shortage of African leaderheads, and as an independent I am guessing it does not need one. Numidia, however, looks to be confirmed. It was at least a noteable independent civ in much of the region. Plus, we a...

I am in the process of updating African civ information. Great work so far! For the Horse Whispering UP, what do you mean by cavalry gets +2 health? And, I don't remember, so what is your opinion on the inclusion of Numidia? Were they a civ per-say or were they nomadic or tribelike? Remember, they c...

I did some thinking on techs; I think we will already have a difficult time with the tech tree. Of course I am still open to more tech ideas but I think our current level of depth is pretty good. I think there may/may not be small holes (ie missing requirements for units, etc) and some more in certa...

I don't know much about ships, but if you can work in both, that would be cool Fusta was referring to a ship, unless you're asking me which would be a better UU, then I don't know, and will leave it up to you War Elephants are fine (and are what I put), although I have no idea how historically accur...

Luba is fine... I'm not sure about Kitara, I'll have to check what I already have (and make sure I haven't sort of already included it) Careful the Unit Groups, Art(city) Groups and Tech Groups. Try to choose one already there. For example Wolof would be: Unit Group: Malinese? Generic African? Art G...

OK... I am not a fan of region-to-region representation, but I have no problem including Luba. For a long time it was going to be included in the mod. There will also be a number of independents in the area, for Kongo to vassalize. I'll update civs today or tommorow.

Well, I wasn't particularily decided on the matter to begin with; I'll leave it open. And I agree, as long as the features look right- for example grishnash's suggestion is way too rounded and West African, and lacks the chin/cheek shape of Ramesses. I'll take a look at some good depictions and post...
