__ UPGRADE __

You may need to delete the mod cache to make this upgrade work. I had to do this once in order to get the new graphics to works.


__ DESCRIPTION __

New Units:
- Autochthon (weak melee unit, primitive man with Forest bonus [based on JTitan's Ehiopian Scout model])
- Primitive Archer (early weak ranged unit)
- Caveman (melee unit, stronger than Autochthon)
- Shaman (ranged unit, 1 psace [based on danrell's Mongol Scout model])
- Savage (melee siege unit, [based on Patum333's Celtic Warrior model])
- Laborer (earlier Worker unit, cheap but works slowly)
- Explorer (Classical Era mounted Scout [danrell's Mongol Horseman model])

New Buildings:
- Food Storage, Chieftain's Hut, Palisades, Campfire, Rock Paintings, Shelter, Midden, FirePit, Causeway.

New Wonders:
- Wonderwerk Cave, Ggantija Temple, Skara Brae, Theopetra Cave.

New Improvement:
- Foraging Site

New Resource:
- Berries, Flint, Obsidian


__ COMPATIBILITY __

*** I strongly advise to download this Mod as the LAST new mod before starting a new game! **
- Other civilizations may not work due to starting bonuses.
- If you like your new civ, let me know and I'll see if I can patch it.
- Does not work with Mods that change GOODY HUTS (Ancient Ruins) or the SCOUT unit.
*** Avoid using Mods that give any benefit AT THE START OF THE GAME, as you might end up unbalancing the game with overpowered units, buildings or features 2000 years too early! ***

__ PREHISTORIC v2.x __

I am creating a much larger mod, more historically accurate and larger in scope, covering a much larger span of man's history (20M BC), optionally starting from the Miocene Age somewhere during bipedal adaption -- "monkeys coming down from the trees".

Several starting era choices:

-> Miocene
-> Paleolithics
-> Mesolithic
-> Neolithic
-> Copper
-> Bronze ...

In order to prevent land-grab too early I am considering several things:
- revealed areas becoming dark again after short periods
- no settlers at the beginning! (alternative form of settler to create 'camps', 'gathering areas'). Very early game would be nomadic without camps.
- ice age changes disrupting civilization and land
- natural disasters
- limited expansion once villages can be established
- exploration limitations, such as forest civs having penalties in deserts. After all, early "man" took a long time to adapt and migrate.
