Fantastic, though I would like to have seen Ahmed Shah Durrani the FOUNDER of Afghanistan or Sher Shah Suri, another Pashtun king. All of our Shahs have been Pashtun and we are the greatest warriors of the Islamic World!

Though if we were to put modern leaders on it... Mullah Mohammed Omar would have been nice, oh well.

well sorry i did not read what you had already wrote down but at least you put true info altough i am talking about a long time after WW2 Well 40ish years but that's all.

DUDE THEY stoped the russians...Well yeah we-USA) did use our Lend and Lease poily so they would have the Stinger lock on missle to take they helo's down and they lefted...That proves there dedacasion for there home CIV.. Leaders really no 1 stands out but i would def. Give them a pretty good atk unit that can cross mountins,Since they have a ton there it makes since to give them the abilitys they would have leared how 1 way for trading mainly.But if not that at least good movment without any pen.With hills or forest/jung...Thanks for mod am gonna give it a go bro...Also if any1 says the name bin liaden YOU r dumb=He at best lived there so that has 0 to do with a Civ...Good Gaming and Modding!!!!!!!

that ability sucks. it makes sense but just why?

I agree with Enforcers, there are much better leader choices especially based on your choice of unit and building types. Perhaps a better leader would be former Afghan Defense Minister Ahmad Shah Massoud who led his people not only against the Soviets but against The Taliban as well.

how do i get countrys like this to show up in the realistic location?

I LIKE THIS MOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One more thing for this mod. All the other civilizations have leaders when that civ was at its highest, their most glorious peak. Why have you put the king of afghanistan that ruled duirng what was known as the "Dark Ages of Afghanistan"?

You should have put Ahmad Shah Durrani, and his Afghan empire. He was also in control of the military of the persian empire until it fell. He created a pretty big empire, making that the highest and most glorious period of the Afghan people.

Maybe you could, or someone else could, make another mod with him.

Graveyard Of Empires! Nice. Afghanistan has defeated Alexander the Great, Ghengis Khan, the British during their reign of India, the USSR, and now America and their allies.

I don't know why mrktucson is saying they don't want to take Afghanistan, when they do. It has the most tactical position: Russia to the north, China to the north-east, Pakistan and its nukes to the east, Iran and their half completed nukes the west and Khazakhstan to the north east. Afghanistan borders Iran and Turkmenistan, the second and third largest oil reserves in the world. Now tell me, do you really think America would turn their back on that?

Tailban was a Kingdom of Saudi invention, it was a gang of many in the 1980s when Ussr Invaded Afghanistan. They Tailban was geting killed off as well tell Regon gave the Tailban stinger missiles and weapon via the CIA to kill off the Russian helocopters.

Tailban was on the US's payroll for 20 years after. So yes, America did defeat Afganistan and left because they have zero interest with colonizing Hill people in their native lands. Just putting a Boot up their butt tell they understand not to attack again in the name of Islam.

whats the unique unite to this civ?

The taliban don't represent all of Afghanistan, or its views. Also Zz you are very arrogant if you think the U.S.A. (The actual name of the country, since America is a continent.) destroyed the Taliban. They are still as strong as ever and can never be all found or killed, at least not in our lifetimes.

ZZ time- Yes they did but it won't end there will always be more of them.

Actually America did destroy afghanistan and their horrible taliban.

anyway you could make a sniper mod for BNW?

Kim, you're lucky, I'm Canadian, we don't even get a civ. And most of the modded ones represent us as syrup-drinking hockey-loving pacifists living in the snow. And personally I think a lot of modded civs are overpowered, even though this one is fairly balanced minus the millions of unique things

These are the kinds of Civs and abilities, etc... Firaxis should give to default nations. I was not impressed with America, and I want to be, because it is my COUNTRY. Thanks, bro. I hope you make an America with more realistic and modern attributes. A good plane is not the Stealth Bomber, but the X-47, right? Or, even the F35. E-Commerce, etc.

Oh my word.... another great mod. Man, keep it up and I hope you join Firaxis someday like some modders have before. Cool.

Very impressive and "PC" mod, good choice of leader and racial traits would like to see more from you in future.

@Etrysal: I'll see what I can do; a lot of the stuff in this mod uses BNW things, but still, I'll see what I can rework

Part 1 of 2 of message

Hi guys thanks for the suggestions. I've updated the city name and also removed the "King" title so any titles that come before it make sense.

@Reed Cassidy: If you are playing against Afghanistan, the cities should have the Afghan flag like the other civs. If you're playing as Afghanistan, the flag doesn't show up (I don't know how to make it show up; plus I don't think the flag shows up on the city if you own it anyway?).
@Navllyk: The Hamam does not provide the +25% to great people generation. However, it also doesn't have the river requirement (just requires water [lake, ocean, river or oasis]).

Part 2 of 2 of message
@OhNoes: It's not that the Hamam provides 'food', its that it helps growth. Cleanliness and public health is improved by sanitation and everyone being cleaner. A cleaner, healthier population results in greater growth. It's the same idea with hospitals. The hospitals don't provide 'food' yet they provide +5 food (because they improve growth via eliminating diseases, helping sick people, preventative care, etc improving long term growth as well as immediate growth)

@OhNoes: Well, remember, it's not "Food" it's "Growth". So, I guess it increases "Growth" the same way "We Love the King Day" does.

How a public bath can produce food? I dont know something about Afghanistan?

I'd also second dropping King/Lord/Any title from the leader's name, since the "Civ Names by Diplomacy" mod is fairly popular. (Count King Zahir Shah, Duke King Zahir Shah) >_>

That said, this is an interesting idea for a Civ. The UA gives you a small advantage along with a large disadvantage, but in return you gain 4 powerful Uniques. (Also, does the Hamam replace the Garden, but does not retain the +25% GP generation?)

I LOVE this mod. I think the color choice for the empire is great and the unique units showcases the country's history perfectly. I did, however, notice a few things that could be updated to make the mod even better:

1. In game, the title of the leader is shown as "Lord King Zahir Shah". Is there any way to take out the "Lord" title? Or simply re-name the leader to Zahir Shah?

2. This empire's symbol (the Afghan flag) sould show up next to each city's name in the map view as it does for all the other civilizations.

3. I noticed when a settler founds a new city, some of the cities have the word "city" in the title (i.e. Kandahar City, when it should simply be Kandahar).

Aside from those suggestions, great mod!

@swatmp5 Please make a default pack of this so I don't need to buy the new DLC for it
Thanks.

thanks a lot afm0901, that must've went by me, thanks. Fixed the leaderscene

no picture appears on diplomacy screen, it just shows up as fog of war
