Since Britain is a maritime state mostly known for their navy, I think it would be nice to see a naval UU like a battleship replacement (perhapse the "Dreadnought" that replaces the "Battleship").

I totally agree, I may add that in the next update.

UPDATED

Add the GCHQ as a unique building, can only be built once, if the city it's in is captured the captive takes the bonuses. GCHQ notifies you of any deals/communication between other Civ's. Other Civ's are not publicly notified of its existance.

Trait: Sun Never Sets <or> Brittain Rule The Waves
Britain was famous of naval dockyards are around the world, grate admirals can be consumed to build these on un-claimed shore tiles, providing a small amount of sea territory around it, ships can also heal in allied (other Civ's which you have a decleration of friendship with) waters.

@TomDRV - Love the idea of the GCHQ, that's brilliant idea! I just got to find out how I can make it work in the game. Correct me if I'm wrong, do you need LUA to make that work? (As I'm not that advanced in coding) I will also look into that trait, is there a current unit using that ability at the moment?
TomDRV 17 Dec, 2013 @ 8:43am 
No unit I'm aware of uses that ability. LUA? If that's a coding related matter, I''m no expert in coding at all :(, I know nothing about the topic :3. Sorry I can't help.

Dreadnaught was a very early battleship, maybe wise to have it as a replacement to the Ironclad instead or, if you take history into account, you will be giving the UK a disadvantage :P

Fair comment, I will look into it and include it in the next update, as you know I'm off loading all my mods then I will be making adjustments.

Could I suggest instead of the grand almost palace interior that is used as the backdrop for the leader scene that the door to No.10 Downing Street or the staircase with all the previous PM's might be more apt?

That's a good one, did you find a background like that available? if so please post a link. Thanks

I would consider changing the unique tank (which militarily had no impact during Thatcher's era) for the Harrier Fighter, with better ground/sea attack capabilities.

That would also help profile this Civ's military as strictly sea/air centered. Fits well with your SAS marines - that idea is spot on!

Thanks for this series. It truly is an accomplishment, presenting a whole era like this.

Thanks :) I really like that Idea I will implement it on the next update.

I agree that the UK needs a unique naval unit for the battleship. Probably the best would be to have a King George V class battleship. Those were the last and strongest battleships of the Royal Navy.

I don't know. There was nothing really special about the King George Class, was there? Contemporary top-of-the-line Japanese and German battleship designs were just as good if not better - larger, better armed and better armored at least. Britain just had a helluva lot of battleships with skilled crews, that's all.

Anyway, the last and strongest of the RN battleships was actually HMS Vanguard, comissioned shortly after WWII. It was the only ship of its class, built in an era when battleships were already obsolete. I think it never saw war action, unless it was shelling some distant shore in the Korean war.

If I had to, I'd probably make a unique Ironclad, the British ones were by far the best around until the emergence of dreadnoughts. Maybe an Ironclad without the open waters penalty, and a little more combat strength. The Royal Sovereign class of the 1890's had such advantages over its contemporaries.

I think it would be alot better to have the Royal Marines to just have a Beret instead of the soldier.
