Important notes
This database is open for everybody, that means that all files mailed to the database manager will be included regardless of their author, quality or content. However, the following rules apply:

  • Only files which are accompanied by a text file with the complete file information as listed above will be included.
  • Files will not be included if the DB manager has the impression that the sender of the files is not the author and tries to get files listed under his name without the expressed approval of the author.
  • The DB team will not do any playtesting of submitted files. If you need playtesters go to the Help forum.
  • Only finished files will be processed. If you consider your scenario a beta version which will be updated soon, please wait until playtesting is finished. You can send updated versions of existing files, but a certain period of time should have passed between updates.
  • The DB team will only process files directly mailed to them, that means we will not search any webpages for new files or updates of existing files. The authors shall decide for themselves, which files they want to see in the DB and mail those.
  • Submitted files will usually be processed and entered in the DB within 4-6 weeks. Please do not send e-mails asking when your file will show up. We will not answer such mails.
  • If your zip file is larger than 1 MB, please put the sound files into a separate zip file (aka secondary file).

    Attention Third-Party file senders: Please include with your submission and in your attached documentation the name and e-mail address of the author of the CivII file, so we can contact them to ensure that no future complications arise about the posting of the file(s). Thank you for you understanding in this matter.
