WHAT'S THE MOD ABOUT? This mod builds on the previous mod structures of BT & The Conquest of Paradise mods by adding to and expanding upon what was already there. Victorum Unive
rsalis is a 4X genre mod in that it allows the player to explore, expand, exploit & exterminate all those before them through political actions and by means of conquest on a grand strategy scale.

AIMS & OBJECTIVES? This mod tries to stick to history through the inclusion of both historic & modern borders, whilst at the same time giving players the option to go down an a-historic path. It also tries to be inclusive of all other cultures through their in-game representations.

REQUIRED ITEMS
I have added two sub-mods: "VU - Thematic Flowing Music" & "Sounds of the Ages". Now, although these sub-mods are in the list of required items, you do NOT have to sub to them if you don't want to. They're just there for people who want to listen to the music and sounds I added. I separated them from the main mod in order to help people with weaker systems download and have a better overall game-play experience since many have of you have been clamoring for a lighter version of the main mod. Hopefully, this will help.
