Iron Man (Unique Unit) [NEW]

This is an update to my old Iron Man mod. It has been so long and this is such a large depature and balance compared to the old mod that I figured I'd re-release it so people could have their choice between the two. That's all a long way of saying "I accidentally hit the 'New Mod ID' button" lol. ANYWAYS ---

This mod adds Iron Man as a highly upgradable unit which, through combat experience, becomes the most powerful unit in the game. This mod is nearing a final state which will, hopefully feature a 3D model of Iron Man courteousy of, *Enter Your Generous Name Here!*. There is not currently a 3D designer on this project, so please feel free to reach out if you know how to do such a thing and, together, we can make a fun mod that serves this idea well. :) I do not own the rights to any of the names, likenesses or characters in this mod; they all belong to Marvel/Disney as far as I am aware.

The man who originally was going to do the 3D modeling for this project, Patch, will not be able to complete it due to computer failure and terminal illness. Message me, or look for him on Steam and message him, if you want to look in to helping him out and start reversing his fortune. I don't want to release too much of his personal business as I didn't even ask him if it was okay to mention this on here, but gaming is one stress-reliever for him and he can't even do that right now. Let's try to band together and fix that :)

This mod will require the Brave New World DLC to the best of my knowledge, my apologies for any inconveniences that this may cause. If you are on the fence on whether or not to purchase the DLCs, I fully recommend buying them as even without mods the new features in the DLCs make the game significantly more enjoyable. Realistically, they're almost always on sale and you can get a significantly better civ experience for very cheap.

To obtain Iron Man, you must research Repulsor Tech and build the Stark Tower. The Stark Tower will grant an additional 15% Science Production in its host city as well as the ability to build more Iron Man units. Iron Man features a combat strength of 75. Iron Man has a custom promotion tree that will make him significantly more powerful through promotions gained from combat experience. Due to Tony Stark's self-professed brilliance, Iron Man gains experience much more rapidly than any other other unit in the game.

This mod includes custom sound bytes for the new technologies (Arc Reactor Tech & Repulsor Tech) and the Stark Tower wonder, all coding that I could not find present in any other mod (not saying that it doesn't otherwise exist per-se, just that over the course of downloading 200 mods, I couldn't find anybody else that had implemented it :) ) It also includes custom icons and images for the new content, though that is much more commonplace :)

This is my first mod (well, this Iron Man project as a whole is) and everything I know about modding is from the work I've done on this. I came in without any outside knowledge. If there's anything wrong with the mod, please please please leave a comment to alert me to it. I'll figure out how to fix it accordingly :)
