Naming your own religions

[Martinus]

While I don't think this is possible in vanilla game, it would be great if one of the patches introduced an ability to name religions you found.

This will, in my opinion, remove a need for mods with ancient religions or "dead" religions, and also fit nicely with the fact that Civilization is about remaking the history, not reliving it.

It would be even better if at the same time you could choose the religion's symbol from a number of available.

Yeah, I would like to create very own flag (wait, there is no flag in Civ4, right?), create very my own leaderhead, name, name of empire.

[Martinus]

You can create your own name and name of Empire. Creating your own leaderhead would be difficult, without modding though.

As for the flag, there are flags in game alright, but they are not selectable iiuc.

Hum, I wonder what kind of benefits would the religion of The Great Maker yield...

He and many others. I've seen some others wanting to do it too, for instance over at Paradox OT forums.
