Updates for the MGE Conversion Project have been posted to CivFanatics as they're released, but I haven't plugged them here as these patches are works-in-progress, and some may see substantial revision before the consolidated release.

However, I do want to spotlight my latest work on Tim McBride's The Fall of Great Kesh: Included as part of the "Best of the Net" fan pack for Conflicts in Civilization, it represents some of the earliest mod work for Civ2, back before the game could house scenario files without requiring manual replacement of the main rules. It was also created without any regard to hard-coded unit properties or the sound map, in some cases breaking special functions such as Engineers and partisan resistance.

Following the initial graphical update, I took on the task of remapping the units in line with the vanilla layout. This involved hex-editing the scenario file directly to change IDs for units already on the map and in city production. The basic process is relatively straightforward if you know what you're doing, but tedious and hard to correct if something goes wrong. As someone with minimal hex-editing experience before taking this project on, I'm impressed I managed to pull it off fairly smoothly.

This second patch also adjusts some unit statistics to be more sensible—the original rules have some frankly bizarre imbalances, and will be overhauled for the redux release. Grab it from Patreon or CivFanatics!
