version 0.02

The "Apolyton Edition Mod" is the combined efforts of the posters at the Apolyton CtP2 sourcecode forum (http://www.apolyton.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=213) to rebalance the game and improve the AI, while keeping as close to the original gameplay of CtP2 as possible.

AE Mod is based on the orignal Super Apolyton Pack 2.0 mod with some other tweaks mainly to wonders, and with all the improvements from the Apolyton source code project.
