DESIGN NOTES
I don't normally take requests but someone suggested making the Smoky Skies civs and I was surprised to see that no-one has seemingly published anything similar so I thought it would be fun to make my own take regardless. Given the civs in the scenerio don't have unique units and their unique abilities and buildings either copy civs from the main game or provide bonuses specific to the scenario, it's a mix of taking other parts of the scenario and a few ideas I've done before in other mods.

OTHER NOTES
- None of the civs have a starting bias.
- All civs use the Smoky Skies music as their peace theme.
