CNC Civs - The United States of America

The wait is over. Adds the United States of America, from Command & Conquer Generals, into the game as a fully playable new Civilization.

====!!!! IMPORTANT COMPATIBILITY NOTICE !!!!====
This mod requires the Brave New World expansion pack to work, and WILL NOT function properly without it. However, as with every other mod I have created, I have chosen not to modify the dependency setting to require Brave New World, so those that do not have it can use the mod as they please. However, the mod is almost guaranteed to be a horribly broken - but playable - mess without the second expansion pack, so if you do not have the Brave New World expansion pack, proceed into a game with this mod at your own risk.


====Description====
The United States of America is one of three major factions in the 2003 RTS Command & Conquer Generals, who face the menace of the Global Liberation Army, using air and technological superiority on the battlefield as well as highly experienced Generals to defeat their enemies in the name of preserving freedom across the world. In Civilization V, they are a Civilization that can easily defend their borders and wrest control of the skies due to their unique ability and combat experience, all while having strong armed forces that can stand their ground and keep the United States' cities safe against even the worst enemy invasions due to their survivability and firepower. Due to this versatile set of abilities, (and an extreme bias for aircraft production if the United States is an AI, 10 out of 12 to be specific,) the United States of America can make for a very strong ally - or a very adaptable and dangerous opponent.


====Unique Ability - Preserving Freedom====
All armed forces receive a +20% bonus to Combat Strength against any rival Civilizations with more Cities than the United States. All American aircraft receive the Air Range promotion for free.

====Unique Unit 1 - Paladin Tank====
The Paladin Tank is a Giant Death Robot replacer that, while weaker than its vanilla counterpart, is very well-suited for drawn-out engagements against enemy forces thanks to its set of abilities. On top of its 125 base Combat Strength, it receives the unique Laser Interception System promotion - providing it with a +20% Defensive Strength bonus that allows it to shrug off even the worst of enemy artillery, air, or ground bombardments in order to stay on the battlefield against the enemies of the United States. In addition, it has a greatly reduced Production cost to build compared to the Giant Death Robot and it requires one Aluminum and one Oil resource to build rather than one Uranium.

====Unique Unit 2 - Comanche====
A Helicopter Gunship replacer, the Comanche suffers from a 50% reduction in its combat capability against armored Units, but makes up for this with a Combat Strength value of 80 - 20 points more than its vanilla counterpart. In addition, it is also capable of moving after it attacking, allowing it to launch deadly hit-and-run attacks against enemy forces. These abilities coupled with tougher armor make the Comanche a very durable air Unit that is well-suited for a wide variety of combat situations - from harassing enemy forces, to guerrilla warfare, to supporting the advance of allied armies. Overall it is a very valuable addition to the United States' air force, but it does require one Aluminum to build.

Usernamehere, for making the mod.
Every man, woman, and child, who worked on the Command & Conquer franchise as well as Generals and Zero Hour, and contributed to making them a reality.
All the respective creators of the music and artwork used.

Rather than just a single war, peace, and loading screen theme, the United States uses every USA-themed song in the original C&C Generals soundtrack (plus the theme songs to both the base game and Zero Hour) to serve as their music themes. Except the C&C Generals main theme, which serves as the loading screen theme, every one of the following songs can play randomly during peace or while at war. They are as follows:

Zero Hour Main Theme
Comanche Down
Enemies of the Free World
Fight for Peace
In the Field
Makin' a Sweep
Preserving Freedom
Rescue Ops
Search and Destroy
