Modding BtS features into Warlords

The map scripts definitely work in Warlords, I've tried it. Aside from the new scripts, BtS is using the files from Warlords in order to create the maps. It doesn't even have it's own CvMapGeneratorUtil.py file, which is what mainly determines how a map is generated.

I also would very much like to see some mixing of the two packs. I'm still on vanilla, but I'll be getting the expansions next week. I'm really digging the idea of vassalage in Warlords, and I'm rather excited about the new units in BTS. I'm going to have a hell of a time deciding which one to play first...

BtS includes all of the Warlords features such as Vassalage, great generals, unique buildings, etc. The only thing that isn't included is the Warlords scenarios.

There is no reason to get Warlords if you are planning to get BtS.

Oh, it does? Sweeeeeet! I was under the impression that it didn't. However, I will still be getting both for one reason and one reason only - it's cheaper to get the box set with the original game and both expansions than one expansion by itself. In fact, the box set is cheaper than the game was when I bought it on the day it came out.

If I do find BTS cheaper, I'll just get that. But I think if I do, it'll only be very slightly cheaper than the box set.

Thanks for the info!
