Notes on the scenario:

Historical notes:

In the early 1600's, this here continent was pretty much up for grabs.
Everything here is more or less correct for the year, the starting 
alliances/wars reflect what was going on in Europe at the time, and
there really isn't much else to add.

This map is an earlier prototype of the one on my page.  The rivers
are not navigable, there are fewer of them, they are less accurately placed,
and a smaller portion of Mexico is shown.  This prevents the Spanish from
being too dominant.

Winning:
Standard scoring- just kill everybody else off and you'll do fine.

Rules.txt modifications (optional)
A slightly modified rules.txt file has been included.  In order 
to use this feature, copy the rules.txt file included in 
civilwar.zip to the directory in which civ2 resides.  
In order to change back to your standard
rules, copy the rules.txt file from your cd, or back 
up your own copy before you start.  The changes are fairly 
minor, however, and the game plays just fine with the original
rules.txt

This is the same rules.txt that I use for the civil war scenario.

The changes:

Ironclad:
The stats have been changed to 5/5/3 in order to reflect 
both the thick armor and the slow speed of these vessels.  
In addition, since American ironclads were not very 
sea worthy (the Virginia was scuttled becasue it could not 
flee to the open ocean, and Monitor sank in a gale off the coast 
of N.C.), Ironclads are given the trireme's coastal 
disability.  The ironclad now becomes obsolete with 
the invention of steel, not electricity.

Destroyer:
This now requires the advance of refining, not electricity.

Trade goods:
The names of these have been changed to substances more 
commonly traded to and from the New World.  Some examples:  
Tobacco, Rum, Timber.

Titles:
The head of a republic is a President, not a Consul.
Democracy's leader is now called a prime minister 
to avoid confusion.

That's it.  If you like, please feel free to use these 
new rules with your regular game.
