Mod details:
The War of Ascension(twoa) ALPHA v 0.1
Fantasy Mod for Civilization IV
DESCRIPTION
This fantasy mod for Civ4 is based on a strategy game ive beed wanting to make
for a long time, and finally civ4 seems to have given me the power to do so
without having to build my own game engine. The ultimate goal will be to
"ascend" a Hero unit into an Avatar unit which will require you to build a
"Throne of Ascension" project (much like the spaceship victory, requiring
several different pieces to complete), then use this Avatar unit to destroy
your enemy religion.
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS
Copy the TWoA folder to your Civ4/Mods directory.
RELIGIONS AND CIVS
This mod includes 8 religions, each with a corresponding civ and a single
leader (i may add more civs/leaders later but for now there are only 8). Id
like to have leaders represent deities, maybe have different leaders that
govern the different spheres that the religion covers. For this reason, each
civilization will be bound to a single state religion, but will probably be
able to aquire other, non-enemy religions.

UNITS
Units can be upgraded up to 4 levels, ie. warrior -> soldier -> swordsman ->
foot knight and there are no dead-end unit paths (except possibly elementals).
Units follow a sort of RPS system (rock-paper-scissors). Soldiers get a bonus
vs. spearmen, spearmen vs. horsemen, horsemen vs. archers, archers vs. soldier,
etc. Higher tier units will have different/multiple bonuses. I have added and
improved many promotions and am in the process of adding "class" promotions
available only to Hero units in an attempt to add some RPG elements.
There a 17 "classes" of units:
Recon, Melee - Infantry, Melee - Spear, Ranged - Archer, Ranged - Gunpowder,
Mounted, Mounted - Ranged, Siege, Hero, Avatar, Naval, Spellcaster, Undead,
Elemental, Summoned, Beast and Giant.
Each religion will have at least 3 summoned units, though this feature hasnt
been added yet.

WONDERS
I have removed all the vanilla wonders. I am considering making only civ and
religion specific national wonders, this will depend on user feedback. The only
wonders in the game are:
Meeting Stone (national, 1 allowed) - ancient era palace
Palace(national, 1 allowed) - upgraded Meeting Stone
*element* Temple (national, 1 allowed) - like vanilla shrines. One for each
religion.
CIVICS
I havent even started with civics yet. The only ones in this version are the
starting civics and they do nothing at this point.
KNOWN ISSUES
* havent yet figured out how to lock enemy religions into war status.
* no naval units yet except the work boat.
* most stuff really hasnt been balanced proplerly yet, especially past tier 2.
* the unit/tech lists in this doc are not 100% accurate, i will fix this for
the next update.
* i still havent figured out how to get the holy city/city religion icons to
work correctly.
* names for many buildings and techs are likely to change.
* the tech tree and building list are only about 2/3 complete in this version.
* the tier 4 units/buildings are not yet available for building.
* summoned units are not in yet.
* many graphics/buttons are incomplete or missing.
* there are no pedia entries written yet.
CREDITS
Big huge props to Kael and team. You/they have really inspired me to build my
own mod (not to mention all the stuff i stole from you guys).
I havent been keeping track of who made the graphics im using so if you see
something you made contact me and ill add your name to the list.
ABOUT ME/CONTACT INFO
I am currently attending The Art Institute of Portland working on a BA in
Visual and Game Programming. Because of this i dont have as much time as i
would like work on the mod but i will update it as much as possible.
