yes, its but its controlled by the heathen's. It kills anything it touches but dissipates thereafter. There is a similar unit on land called Disease. AFAIR, the unit was taken from Morten B's Africa Graphic Pack.

it is basically a scenario - you cannot start on a random map using the games files.

Looks nice, but I don't like that irrigation or whatever

What scenario could possibly need 3.2 megs of zippage?

In the tradition of Oddesy, I have added a complete musical score for the people's version which was about 1.5Mb. Also a few of the files are duplicated as the patch replaces existing files, so people have the option to play the contest version without the bells and whistles.

I noticed that one of the wonders is called "Great Briton" when it should be "Great Britain", I know it may sound pedantic, but I don't call it the United States of Amereka do I

I love the map, I know of a way of improving it though...
How about placing unitless barbarian cities producing capitalization at certain odd-even coordinates?
It can be used to add names to the countries you now show the borders off, like this:

As long as the cities don't build units, gameplay will be totaly unnafected (though the text will allways be in the barb text colour)
The only problem with it is if you have problems with too many cities being built, but I doubt that is an issue here as the map is reasonably small...

Very good suggestion, I will do just that if there is a next vesion. Some questions about implementing it. Other than using events to create units at odd-even coordinates, is there anyway to edit cities etc which are invisible? As the terrain in even-even space is improved does it affect the food etc. of the adjoining odd-even tiles?

Homage to my comic-book hero from my school days 'Battler Briton'. Didn't realise so many people would pick it up immediately.

Apologies for the Mis-spelling to all subjects of the Queen.

Can anyone post a victory screen capture like this one? I only made it with a few years to go.

Thanks for restoring the pride of the British Empire

I'll be sure to download the scenario now, not that I wasn't going to before
