Kievan Rus' (Gods and Kings)

Adds Kievan Rus' to the base game.

~~~

The Brave New World version can be found here here: Kievan Rus' (Brave New World).

~~~

Note:
- This civilization requires the Gods and Kings expansion.
- Updates to the Mod will most likely break save games. Please do not update until you are ready to begin a new game.
- This mod overwrites the CityView.lua and CivilopediaScreen.lua game files. This is done in order to make the dummy UA buildings invisible and is purely aesthetic. However, it will cause compatibility problems with other mods which also overwrite these files (not counting any of my other mods as they use the same edits). To disable this, simply delete the "Dummy Building Folder" folder (and the four files within).
- This mod also overwrites the TopPanel.lua file. This is done to display the gold per turn changes per social policy form the trait. The file can also be deleted (LUA/TopPanel.lua only, not the whole folder) to restore compatibility with other mods. Doing so will remove the dynamic update of your gold per turn top panel for the policy gold (+x gpt) however you will still recieve the proper additional gold every turn (see "to do" section).

Please leave any bugs, balance feedback, and suggestions. My goal was not to create either a modern Russian or a modern Ukrainian civ, but rather the historical Rus' state centered on Kiev. The sigil used is different from the one on the modern coat of arms of Ukraine but rather the variation used by Vladimir the Great.
