A Civilization IV modification that allows players to play through Chechnya conflict with actual maps and leaders.
Mod details:
Chechen Republic - Chechnya v0.68 by Shqype
Description:
Chechnya as a playable civilization (with Agriculture and Mining starting
technologies)
-Featuring (2) late 20th century leaders of the Chechen Republic:
--Djovkhar Dudaev (Aggressive, Expansive, favors Police State)
--Aslan Maskhadov (Aggressive, Philosophical, favors Nationhood)
-Names of cities within Chechnya (unfortunately a majority of these follow the
Russian names and spelling as the real Chechen names are harder to find)
-Unique Flag: Wolf which embodies Chechen pride and nationalism, along with 9
stars to symbolize teips (clans) Chechens are said to have descended from
-Unique Unit: Rocket Propelled Grenadier (Chechen replacement for the SAM
Infantry)
--19 Strength, +100% vs. helicopter units
-Civilopedia entries for:
--Chechnya; http://www.chechnyawar.com/history/
--Djovkhar Dudaev; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dzhokhar_Dudaev
--Aslan Maskhadov; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aslan_Maskhadov
-With slight editing and additions by Shqype
Known Issues:
-The current flag decal for Chechnya was not made correctly, and thus will
always have a black background (where transparency should be)
--I altered the design to keep the wolf black (as it should be) in order to
sidestep this issue
-Currently there are no custom sounds for the Chechen civilization
--They use the default Arabic sounds, because my own ignorance concluded Arabic
sounded closest to their language, and I had no candidates for voice acting
--Even the diplomatic music for the leaders is taken from Saladin
-Unique Unit is not visually different than a SAM Infantry, the skin has not
been altered in any way (any help is appreciated)
Also, whenever Chechen names were available, I tried to use them as opposed to
the Russian. For this reason the 1st leader, Djovkhar Dudaev, appears
instead of the more popular Dzhokhar Dudayev. The first 2 cities are also
Chechen, with the famous Chechen capital of Grozny renamed to "Djovkhar
Ghaala"
(in honor of Dudaev) and Urus Martan replaced with the Chechen "Halha-Marta."
This was done to represent the Chechen people as best as possible, with errors
being my own. Hopefully I will gain a better, more complete knowledge of
Chechnya, preferably by coming across a Chechen, which will better aid me in
tweaking this civ.
