Chinese Unification (Civ4)

Chinese Unification

Chinese Unification is a scenario for Civilization IV: Warlords.

Much of the information presented here comes from a forum discussion on CivFanatics.

Gameplay

This scenario takes place during the Warring States period of Chinese history. You can play as one of these seven Chinese leaders, each of which represents a different family:

Leader	Color	Traits
Qin	Yellow	Aggressive Charismatic
Qi	Pink	Expansive Imperialistic
Chu	Pink	Expansive Imperialistic
Yan	Blue	Financial Protective
Han	Green	Financial Imperialistic
Zhao	Cyan	Charismatic Protective
Wei	Purple	Aggressive Protective

Every family starts with four cities, five Archers, one Polearm, and two Workers. The families act like religions, and each one wants to put a member of its own bloodline on the imperial throne. The scenario includes revamped technologies and new buildings and wonders that give it a more authentically Chinese feel. There are also several new and unique units.

Victory

When the Emperor's Council wonder is built, the warring civilizations will vote for its leader, who can then call for a vote to determine the winner of the game. It's also possible to win a Domination Victory or a Time Victory.
