This folder was created by me as an attempt to compensate for the various historical inaccuracies and gaps found in Civilization II, using the resources presented by the Civilization II Gold Edition. The "History" scenario, created to be a representation of Earth as it was in the beginning of civilization has several additions that try to make it as historically accurate as possible: -The civilizations being in what is belived to be the main origin points of the human race. -The earliest leaders I could find: The first dynasties of Egypt and China. The first Mesopotamian leader to rule from the Mediterranian to the Persian Gulf. The earliest European, Greek, and Native American leaders I knew of. -The placement of barbarians in places of minor settlement. Example: The Indus Valley Civilization lasted too short to be represented, so Barbarians are used. The folder also has many modifications in itself: -Modified costs, upkeep, factors, and prerequisites. -More advances to support more units filling in gaps in the timeline. -The creation of "guilds" to replace some wonders. -New sounds (for Civ. II non-TOT). -New firepower/hit point factors. -"Gold" replaced with "credits." -New unit, terrain, and city icons. -New city names. -A "citypref.txt" for those who have the proper version. -The elimination of some wonders that cause some contreversy or game- winning effect to increase difficulty. I encourage the creation of new, and modification of old scenarios to fit in the folder, since its similarities to regular Civ. II make the latter simple, but still interesting. I would appreciate if you e-maiI me any suggestions at J8x9@hotmail.com, but responses will be slow since my Stargate provider locked me out of Hotmail using its StarGaurdian thing to keep kids of inappropriate websites, so be forewarned, but not discouraged. I hope you enjoy my scenario and any you create for the folder. Finally, I'd like to credit some of the artwork in this scenario to those who created it. I love this art, and I chose it as the most historically accurate out of all the art I had available to me. If I accidenally did not credit some artwork of yours, I apologize, and please e-mail me with either the name of the icon that you created, and whatever name you would like to give me, and I will include the credit in later versions, or your request for me to remove the icon from later versions. Thank You.
