Whoa, you're actually reading this, YES!!!

******************************India-Pakistan Conflict******************************
Section 1:
IMPORTANT STUFF
Replacing files,
must read if replacing or not:

*****The easist way of doing things is just following Step1 or not replacing files and
following Step2.  Otherwise you can chose to modify things by reading Steps2-4*****

1.) It is highly advised to replace the included rules.txt and units.gif
files for great play designed around the scenario and magnification
of the map.  Everyone, says its worth it, and simple to do.  All you have
to do is rename your old rules.txt and units.gif as a backup (i.e. rulesold.txt,
unitsold.gif).  Then just replace the included rules.txt and units.txt files in
your Civ2 directory and you're set.  If you did do this, it isn't necessasary
to read the next steps 2-4.

2.) - If you choose not to replace the above files, you must do the following, or
you could run into some non-technical but aggravating color problems:  I altered
the rules.txt file so that the Americans and Chinese are different colors.  The game
will still work fine, but the Chinese and Americans will have 2 different colors each.
You MUST assign the Americans color #4 and Egyptians #5 in the rules.txt file to
prevent this minor problem.  If you want, you can just cut and paste, instead.
Here's the Americans:

Abe Lincoln,  E. Roosevelt,        0, 4, 1, Americans,   American,   -1,  -1,  1,     4, Reverend, Reverend, 5, Speaker, Speaker

Here's the Egyptians:

Ramesses,     Cleopatra,           1, 5, 0, Egyptians,   Egyptian,    0,  0,  1,     1, Pharaoh, Pharaoh, 2, Great Pharaoh, Great Pharaoh

3.)  If you like your rules.txt file as it is, it's recommended to do the above and also cut and
paste my three custom advances and units by replacing these with the User Techs and
User Units in the rules.txt file:
Advances:
Prithvi-250 N-Missile,            6, -2, Roc, NF, 3, 0    ; U1
M-11 N-Missile,            6, -2, Roc, NF, 3, 0    ; U2
Agni N-Missile,          8, -3,  U1, nil, 3, 0    ; U3

Units:
Prithvi-250 N-Msl.,   nil, 1,  18.,1,  105a,1d,  1h,1f,  14,0,  0, U1,  001000000000000
M-11 N-Msl.,    nil, 1,  24.,1,  99a,1d, 1h,1f, 15,0,  0, U2,  001000000000000
Agni N-Msl.,    nil, 1,  40.,1,  125a,1d, 1h,1f, 18,0,  0, U3,  001000000000000

Also, replace these two units with the Cruise Msl., and Nuclear Msl., respectively:
Haft-1 Msl.,  nil, 1, 10.,1, 35a,0d,  1h,1f,  6,0,  0, Roc, 001000000000000
Prithvi-150 Msl., nil, 1, 16.,1, 55a,0d,  1h,1f, 10,0,  0, Roc, 001000000000000

4.)  Once again, it isn't necessary to do the above, but recommended if you want
to play this scenario as how it was built for.  If you did replace the above units and
advances it is a must to replace the units.gif file (refer to Step1) or you're end up
probaly having a Nuclear Msl. represented by a sail or warrior.  Odd?

Section 2:
DESCRIPTION of New Units,
(not important to read)

***********
    Prithvi-150 Msl. - First of, "Prithvi" means "Earth" I guess in India.  This missile
is non-nuclear and a little more powerful, faster, and expensive than Pakistan's
version of the Haft-1 msl.  This missile can be built w/ Rocketry (already discovered
in this scenario).

    Haft-1 Msl. - This is similiar to a cruise missile, this is Pakistan's main non-nuclear
missile.  This missile can be built w/ Rocketry and (already discovered in this scenario).

    Prithvi-250 N-Msl. - This is the technology (requires Rocketry and Nuclear Fission - already
discovered) that allows this missile which is India's chief nuclear missile.

     M-11 N-Msl. - This is the technology (requires Rocketry and Nuclear Fission - already
discovered) that allows this missile which was acquired by the Chinese and used in
Pakistan as a nuclear msl.  This missile can travel further that the Prithvi-250, but less
powerful, still a better buy, though.

     Agni N-Msl. - Currently, India is working on the production of this massive nuclear
missile.  This can go much farther and is more powerful than any of the above, once built.

Section 3
Status of Each Civ at Begining
(not important to read)

*********
Russia(Democracy, closesed, I guess)- Allied with India, little aid, little factor

Pakistan(Republic)- Allied with China, Cease-fire with India

Bangladesh(Republic)- Pretty much Neutral, little factor

America(Democracy)- Allied with India, limited but large quantity of aid

China(Communist)- Allied with Pakistan, not much of a help, but a factor

India(Republic)- Allied with Russia, and America, Cease-fire with Pakistan

Section 4
Apoligies and Last Notes
(not important to read)

***********
-I'm sorry for the crummie map, I just didn't think it was neceesily to make it that acurate
around Iran, China, and all those little islands - I know the map is way off, oh well.  You
can customize it if you want.

-Honolulu - I had to stick an American city somewhere, sorry it's misplaced (I ran out of room).

-Sorry for any techincal problems, don't sue me, I'm not authorized, play at your own right.

-This scenario takes place somewhere in the past, present, and future.  I know Mr. Rao doesn't
head the Indian govenment anymore, but this scenario starts off in March when he did rule.

-I recommend playing as the Pakistans or Indians for the best possible war.
