CJL's Babylon

We proudly present CJL's Babylon, led by Hammurabi and Nebuchadnezzar II !

This is our first mod, and it is a passion project of us, because we think Babylon is an incredibly important civilization in world history and one of the most iconic civilizations of the series, and it is a shame, that they are not (yet) in the game.
Obviously, if Firaxis decides to add them to the game in the future, we will make appropriate adjustments.
Keep in mind that, because it is our first mod, there are still some rough edges and there might be balancing issues.
So don't hesitate giving us constructive feedback, if you feel, there are some things that could use a change. We gladly will look into it! :)

Available in English and German Localisation.
We recommend playing with the mods Sui Generis and Tomatekh's Religions, for a better feeling.
