Digging through
the archives of the old back-up cdrom, I found a
half-baked Christmas modpack. After reworking things a bit
and adding a number of units, it appears to be quite
possible and could be finished rather quickly.
The
SCENARIO:
"The North
Pole has melted and Santa needs a new pad pretty fast. The
only choice is the South Pole. But now the Christmas
francise is up for grabs and the Jack Skelington, Scrooge,
and The Grinch all want a piece of the action. Santa has to
get on the ball and completely rebuild, but not without his
arch nemeses to compete. Your job is take out the
competition with candy, toys and Christmas
spirit."
FEATURES:
- 40 new
units
- All new
icons
- Memorable
terrains from the Antarctica and Santa Modpacks
- New
sounds
- New
Rules
- All new
scenario play

Here is a great tid bit from the
past that has turned up for those who are avid Colonization
fans. For those who know and have forgotten or who never
knew in the first place there exists a great stategy guide
that I might add is still available here.
Click on the thumb to see a bigger version of the cover.
This is The

game. Here are the details of the

HAPPY
THANKSGIVING!

Happy
Thanksgiving to all who celebrate. For those who do not know
what this holiday is, it remembers the generous Native
Americans who helped the first pilgrims and pioneers who
were unable to take care of themselves. These tribes brought
a bounty of corn, potatoes, beans, cranberries, venison,
pumpkins, squash as well as blankets, furs, stone tools, and
crafted leathers. In return the pilgrims invited them to
dinner. In celebration, CPH is offering these Civilization
2 Units to help you celebrate. It has
become tradition in America to eat a turkey on Thanksgiving.
Well, since the American poultry industry has been using
growth hormones to grow these turkeys faster and keep up
with the demand, some of them have jumped millions of years
of evolution to become smarter, faster and stronger. Well,
see for yourself:
TURKEY ELITE
FORCES
Download by using
right-click and selecting save
as. There is a text
file too.
I'm calling these
the Turkey Elites. My personal favorite is the M.A.S.H.
Turkey (#9)but the grenade
turkey (#6) is cool too. I have not made any sound
files for these (I might in the future). I've also included
a recommended set of stats and names for the Turkeys but you
can of course treat them as you like.
Happy Holidays!
Enjoy!

More links have
been added and the page has been cleaned up a bit for the
DOS version of Civilization
here at CPH. These were previous links that appeared before
on the main page. Go here
or click the pic to the left. I will probably add more next
weekend.
I've also taken
the time to add some cheats to the Colonization DOS
section. These cheats are a little treat that
I came across and felt that these also make great hints and
tips which might help tweak the game the way you
like.
You can check it
out here
or click on the pic to the right ---------->
Note: Don't forget with the holidays coming
up, you can buy many of Sid Meier's games on ebay, half.com or Amazon.com.
