Description
Adds Syria under Bashar al-Assad to the Game! Requires Brave New World.

Please note that with this mod I am not expressing an Assadist position, nor do I wish to be associated with Assadists. I am instead releasing this mod at this time to ask that if you have enjoyed my mods and are willing to spare something, to donate to a Syrian / Turkish earthquake appeal. Syria has, in no small part thanks to Assad, suffered for over a decade, with civil war, dictatorial bombings and Islamic extremism ravaging the country. This earthquake has pushed a people already in poverty beyond breaking point. As of 19/02/23, over 46,000 people have died in Syria and Turkey. Donating even a tiny amount to a trustworthy national or international organisation will be able to do a lot for people in need. An organisation such as the UN Crisis Relief Organisation can help those at risk to access to shelter, food, water, heat and medical care in freezing cold temperatures. https://crisisrelief.un.org/turkiye-syria-earthquake-appeal
This is of course an optional plea, but if it is something you would like to do, I'm sure there are plenty of people who will appreciate it.

I want to say that I should've known how fucked up Assad is. I want the citizens of Syria to be safe and try to get out of Syria. I pray for the citizens of Syria and wish for them to be safe from chaos.

There's nothing wrong with that; Syria is one of the important civs that have been existed from the Cold War until the present day

Also, the Syrian conflict might also bring upon WWIII, yet you're happy about that @Kramer?

Syrian Christians and Druzes are more likely to get persecuted and killed in Syria by the Islamic rebels than Assad's regime. How does that feel that what your celebrating is putting Christians and the Druzes in that nation at risk of getting persecuted and killed @Kramer? I know Assad's not a good guy, but the war in Syria should've never escalated to that point, and we and Israel should've never got involved with it in the first place. We should've left Syria alone.

I think there's some now that would at least fit the look of desert camo. In addition, you can do what Community Patch does and have the APCs be accompanied by leg infantry.

Ah cheers, I get you. I went with the generic models as there was no obvious model for the Republican Guard to use (couldn't find any on CivFanatics from back in the day), and the model for the Ba'ath Brigade was sufficiently close to what I wanted for it. So I just went with the generic ones.

I meant the models, the screenshot showed the unique units using generic models. I haven't downloaded myself so I don't know if it's actually changed or not.
