Description
Polycrates was the tyrant of Samos, a fierce warrior and an enlightened ruler. He was responsible for the construction of engineering projects that are considered to be before their time, including a large aqueduct dug through a mountain known as the Tunnel of Eupalinos. He also ordered the construction of a fleet of over 100 penteconters, and designed his own ship, the Samaina. He likely pursued raiding and piracy to fund his increasingly large fleet.

Running R&F (no GS). Mod shows as enabled, but Polycrats Greece is not listed as an available civ under game setup panel.

I have a problem with the mod as no matter what map I play on, none of your leaders show up. I tried using Sweden on YnAMP, & Archipelago, but it didn't work. I tried using Polycrates on another, do you know why?

Thank you!!! It is always nice to see a new civ has been created! You do a great job with these! Could you do a new Roman one?
