Description

Adds the "Mythic" Game Speed option to fit between Epic and Marathon for a duration twice as long as the Standard speed (1000 turns).

I always played my games in Marathon ever since Civ4 but recently felt that I’d appreciate a slightly shorter game but still stretched enough to have time to do things. As I tried Epic and found it unsatisfactory, I couldn’t help but wonder how come there were speed options for 1.5x and 3x Standard but not a simple 2x, so here it is.

This is my first try at modding the game so this mod is fairly simple in nature and not meant to compete with fancier and more full-featured existing ones around, but rather just solve a simple problem / idea with a simple solution (although it took me longer to be done with it than I would care to admit).

Here is a breakdown of the turns year progression (slightly adjusted compared to an exact Standard x2):

Compatibility

As this mod only adds and doesn’t modify existing content, it shouldn’t conflict with any mod unless they have an identically named GameSpeed option or one with a SortIndex at 45.
