SS: Indians! Released

[Banzai!]

SSTC Required!
Install over a clean SS6.1 -> SSTC1.2 + hotfix install if having problems.

This mod adds American Indians (Apacheans) to the Stainless Steel Grand Campaign. Apachean units become available to recruit from Atlantic provinces after the New World is discovered. This will hopefully stop the late game blues!

Aztecs and other American units haven't been added because they look ugly and suck. Pyjama men, bah!

If you want to try out the Indian units play a custom battle with the Moors on late era!

This is an addon to my AOR mod located here:

Thus the AOR recruitment system comes with this mod.

Screenies:
Demonstrative only! Indians emerge after world is round event.

Why are Native Americans emerging in Ireland? Americas is removed in SS 6.1


EDIT: Natives prefer to be called Native Americans, or aboriginals not Indians. Indians are from India.

Actually most would find the term "native" offensive. Native American is now the more proper term.

I was also always told that Indian was offensive too, but when I studied Native American Studies in the US, most if not all of my lecturers and classmates (who were all Native American), called themselves Indians. I guess it's like how African Americans now use the "n" word to describe themselves.

actually i happen to be native american and none of terms are really offensive

probably depends on the area/tribe i know i dont usually care about the use so long as you establish what "indian" you use. We (me and friends from onondaga and akwesasne) use just native all the time more commonly than indian whereas western ones more commonly use indian it seems. another term which is usually only used within ourselves is "skin" though.

Why is it only white Americans can call themselves just "Americans"? Everybody else has to have a prefix assigned to them based on their ethnicity.

You know what...I totally agree!!! Why do all other ethnic groups get assigned a prefix based on their ethnicity.

That's just a

Why is it that blacks and mexicans can call me a cracker but if I call them a or a beaner I get in trouble? there will never be total equality. the only solution is to accept it and move on.

nobody has to attach a prefix to themselves. Anyone with American citizenship can call themselves American whenever they want.

Plus, If you ask a white person his race, he won't say "American" he will say "white" or what ever European country his ancestors are from.

The -American was added on to differentiate between races, but still identify the individual as American. Sure, you have African American, Native American, Asian American, etc.

But you also have Italian American, German American, Irish American, etc, which are all white.

[eggthief]

well black people are called afro-americans and pyjama people native americans it doesnt sounds so offensive right and on paper it can give u an idea on how a specific person looks like.

[eggthief]

Yeah, this over-protectionism annoys me sometimes, u are supposed to be proud of your ancestry and I dont see how calling yourself afro-american when you are indeed a black american would clash with this.

[METALED]

[Firebat11]
