BtS Wolfshanze Mod v2.85
***
This mod is an enhancement to the base gameplay of Civ4 BtS, and should be used as a direct replacement for basic random games... it focuses greatly on several missing unit classes between the 1850s to the 1920s (between Ironclad Monitors and WWII-style battleships), including many new naval classes and full support for WWI units, including a full WWI air war. Nuclear explosions have been enhanced. Also, Hitler, Hirohito, Ho-Chi Minh, Cleopatra, Caligula, Emperor Meiji, Napoleon III, Lenin, Lech Walesa, Kim Jong-il & Ronald Reagan are now available to fight for or against for their respective civs. Three all-new civs have been added in the Austrian, Polish and Vietnamese empires. New flags for most nations enhance the look of many civs. Cities are nation/civ-specific in look. Countless new unit graphics have been added, most of which are nation/ethnic-specific... very little has been changed in game mechanics, mostly new looks or filling the gaps in the progression of units. In-short, this mod will play much like vanilla Civ4... but it will look a lot better and offer you more choices in units and civs to use. This mod is for Civilization IV: Beyond the Sword.

Description
***********
Using the graphics made by Refar, Ekmek, NikNaks, Capo, Coyote, Bernie, Elhoim, kodzi, Danrell, Hadrean, Snafusmith, Bernie, GeneralMatt, Houman and others (I lost track... lots of folks though!). Also, special thanks to Xenomorph for his help with both some artwork, and most especially his DLL, Python and XML help, and to Arian for his video introduction to the Wolfshanze Mod! I created this mod with a blend of new units to cover the 19th and 20th century in naval warfare, WWI units, and expanded unit/national diversity, as well as putting the leaders of Hirohito and Hitler into the game.
****************
New Unit Classes
****************
Battering Ram

Heavy Cruiser
Boomer Submarine
Early Tank

************************
New Graphics & Diversity
************************
Too many changes to list separately. Let's just say there's been a huge improvement in unit and city diversity... Japanese units and cities will look Japanese, German units and cities will look German, African units and cities will look African, etc, etc.
************************
Multiple Naval Enhancements
************************
Naval gameplay has been significantly improved. Naval units have been broken-into multiple "Ages" such-as the "Age of Sail", "Age of Steam" and "Dreadnought Age" to show major revolutions in naval warfare. New ages of naval units tend to trump older ones, and multiple new naval units have been added, especially in the Medieval and Industrial Ages (such-as coal-fired navies).
****************
