Subject: The beginning

It was a great game. I had one continent of the 4 and 6 adversaries. My power was too strong. When the event occurs...

It was at the end of the industrial era. I had just discovered oil when it disapeared. I was furious. All my strong empire !

In first I have trade my world map and 2 technologies to get an oil supply for 20 years by Japan, the only country in this world that have 2 oil supplies.

After that I have built a strong army, ten years. When I was ready I have attacked Persian to steal them their oil supply, the only solution to survive. After defeated persian army and take half of their territory, I was disgusting cause it have take 30 turns with the 10 turns of preparation it was 40 turns to gain that the game have stolen me !

And that was the beginning. I saved and I closed the program. 20 minutes after I was on civfanatics after all could be interresting to make a mod.
A great mod !

So I have made a mod that have a concept at its beginning: I would want to make a government under it you can make war, a real war. That was the dictatoryship. After that I have decided to include Empire cause I found them great. Federation have been the oposite gov of empire. But as there's communism I would want to add Fascism... And one by one all government have been adding. The great addition was Triple your government mod but with more changes.

At this time, I can't say GMW (Govern & make war) is a simple fusion mod or a remod. No, after all these changes this mod is an entire and independant mod. Yes it took from other mod, but I want to balance all features (I know for wonders :) ).

With version 1.00 I was able to fix all great balancing rules. And it is a little better (i think). But I don't want to stop here, my next challenges: units.

I have to delete some units. Too much differents units. Some have to stay, other have to disappear. I don't want to delete most unit, no, that I want to do is only to delete useless units. For now I have deleted grenadiers and E3 sentry. Most have been adding between the 2 deletes. So I have to make something more better, more balanced, with a great succession of units, maybe I will have to cut differents graphics unit with same features, but I don't want a succession of same units. Yes it is true, units with noticeably same features are few but I have to delete them... Or I think :) .

Maybe you will say to me that I am wrong....
