I cannot quite adequately express how appropriate it is, that the individual making a Newfoundland mod, has a display pic of both the Canadian flag and the Union Jack. Looking forward to the updates, you're doing a fantastic job. Cheers from a drunk Newf! Or I suppose I could just say 'from a Newf'!

This mod is severely out of date as far as the code goes, I'm going to have to rework it. Thanks for letting me know about the issues. I will revamp this mod soon.

And yes my plan for this faction was that their fishing bonuses would force them to focus their development on coast cities, as newfoundland did historically. Glad you are enjoying the mod

I started a game with Attila the Hun as one of the other players of the map. They made a city called TXT_KEY_CITY_NAME_NEWFOUNDLAND_26 or something like that. I've got a screenshot of it, it's currently my most recent one. At first I thought it a bit cheap that our lighthouse gives an extra 2 food from water rather than just 1, but the fishing industry is truly a major part of Newfoundland, and historically our island's waters were very rich in fish. I even remember going up Church Hill in Morrisville with my dad when I was a kid, we'd go up the river where the town's water came from, perhaps with some chips and pop for a snack, and catch some rainbow trout. Delicious fish. There were often moose or deer tracks if the dirt was muddy, not sure if I recall any bear tracks or not.

Many people also made their own boats, dorys in particular, I seen one in a shed that was in the process of being built, so they were made locally. I guess that excuses why ships have so low maintenance.

Well, to be fair, 'dumbfound' is an actual word. I'm a Newfie myself, and don't feel insulted at the little mistake. It's like accidentally saying 'Australia' instead of 'Austria' or vice versa. I mean, there's only 2 letters that differentiate the two names, so you know, it's understandable. A more appropriate example would probably in calling Haiti 'Hater'. Common word online, so no offense would typically be met, it's just a slip of the tongue due to how similar they sound, or rather, a slip of the finger.

Anyways, gonna give this mod a go. Only other mod I installed so far is one that allows me to rename my units as soon as I get them. In Civ4, I had this thing where I numbered and dated all units. "Warrior I 4000BC", "Redcoat XXIV 1779AD", or if I upgraded the Warrior to that, "Wa I 4000B Re 24 1779" because there's probably not enough room for "War I 4000BC Red XXIV 1779"

This would be awesome with YNAEMP compatibility!

I don't even know how "New" turned into "Dumb" X3

I think i've spent too much time in the Workshop, i just thought the name of this mod was "Nominion of Dumbfoundland". Seriously >_<'

Never thought I'd see Newfoundland in Civ, but I'm glad I did!
