It's spelt Spaniard, so you know.

Right, that is how I meant to spell it. Fixed it.

you are using a tile set with no tile for the letter you used for them.

I am? I switched to the standard curses_square_16x16 tileset, and it still displayed the same.

Ah, yes, that's what I thought. You need 'B' and so forth when directly specifying the tile, not just B.

[CREATURE_TILE:'B'][COLOR:7:0:1]
[CREATURE_TILE:'S'][COLOR:7:0:1]
[CREATURE_TILE:'P'][COLOR:7:0:1]
[CREATURE_TILE:'F'][COLOR:7:0:1]
[CREATURE_TILE:'N'][COLOR:7:0:1]

Yes, that did it. They are working now.

I have Britain, Spain, Portugal, France, and the Indians. Was there anyone else in N.A. (Or S.A.) at the time?

Btw, depending on what time period you're thinking of, you forgot about the Dutch (Netherlands). They owned New York/New Jersey for a while, 'til the bastards in Britain came along. If you want some more diversity, you could add that in...

Also, if you have Iceland on that map, that was owned by Norway. You could probably pretend that they owned Greenland, too :P.

With this mod, you could play the Puritan challenge: No engravings or statues(because Puritans were srs), limited booze, only access to an Indian civ, and everybody must drop all that they're doing and be restricted to a 'church' burrow once a week.

If you're going to have the Dutch, then you'd need to have the Swedes too (the area around Delaware was owned by Sweden for a few years).

But, if you'd have them, the time period would be mid 1600's.

Also, since the map is just of North America, the Portuguese would not be there (only Brazil).

And I was just thinking of doing a mod like this one. Although I was planning to have the 4 races be the British, the French, the Native Americans and the Americans. You'd be the Americans, the British would war with you, the French would trade with you, and the Native Americans would be a mix of the Kobolds and the Elves. Of course I'd be happy to help with this mod. It would be nice if the Europeans all had a high chance of warring with each other, but they'd all be world gen wars while the Native Americans would be at war with everyone but there'd be lots of them.

It looks to me that you have to add the Aztecs in, along with the Métis.

The Aztecs would be a highly agressive, but primative civilization, who'll send tons of warriors armed with clubs and similar weaponry.

The Métis would be a combination of the European and Native American civilizations, and would prefer to trade rather than attack. They would be armed with traditional Native American weaponry, ride horses, but most importantly, they can use firearms.

Remember, it'd be England rather than Britain depending on your time frame.

I knew I was forgetting someone, I just could not figure out who.

The 1600's was actually the yime period I was going for. And I wasn't only doing North America empires; I just happened to have a map of it.

Weren't the Aztecs and them gone long before anyone was in the Americas but Spain? I thought they were.

EDIT: Swedes and Dutch added.

Spain met the Aztecs in 1519ish. The Incas were probably closer to the 1600s than the Aztecs. Add them.
