Early Eras Fix

This mod started as a small fix to couple annoying early game problems, but it ended as a total rework of the first three eras.

My two main priorities was gameplay and historical accuracy, as it can be reached in civ V.

- Flatland cities got +1 Food
- Sedentism and Fishing techs added to the Ancient Era, Trapping and Archery merged into Hunting.
- Mysticism and Standing Army techs added to classical era
- Tech prerequisites changed all over the place
- Ancient tech costs raised significantly (~30%), Classical moderately (~10%) so eras took more reasonable time to pass
- Library provides +2 flat science and +1 science to Forest
- University provides +15% science and +2 science to Marsh in addition to Jungle
- NC and Oxford merged, so overall science line should not be top priority
- Garden provides +1 culture to lakes and oasis
- Wonders moved around tech tree to correspond more with historical build times, effects changed to be more equal in power
- Several early buildings got less gold maintenance
- +Exp buildings got additional effects
- Classical buildings "re-skinned" to more accurately represent their purpose
- Monasteries returned to be a generic faith building, Mandirs took their place as a belief.
- Gaining pantheon cost rise only by 2 for each other pantheon
- Weak beliefs buffed
- Galley (weak ranged naval unit) and embarkment added to Sailing, Trireme (and corresponding UUs) buffed and moved to optics
- Warrior got scout abilities (upgrades to spearman thou), Scout buffed and moved to Philosophy.
- Gobekli Tepe wonder added to the Ancient Era
- Tournament Grounds (happiness building) and Fishpond added to Medieval era
- Buildings and units moved around tech tree to more logical locations
- Windmill is now generic +Production building between Workshop and Factory, no longer requires flat terrain
- Ironworks got +% effect in addition to plain +production
- Babylon, Byzantium, Cartage, Huns, Korea, Germany and Rome changed
- +2 move to embarked units, caravan range extends along rivers
- Caravans and workboats cost less
- Something else I've forgot to mention

The part, which I mostly didn't touched here - combat system. There are many possible approaches to fix civ combat, I'll publish mine in some time but I want this mod to stay compatible with any of them to not limit the choice.

Barathor - Fishing and Mysticism techs, Mandirs, Galleys, some other minor elements.
Pouakai, Sukritact - Gobekli Tepe
htdang12, Haftetavenscrap - playtesting

ambrox62 for Ancient Wonders Timeline mod, which planted in me the idea of this project.
Tnesniv Yorel and other players here, at civfanatics forum and reddit, who voiced their opinion about early game problems.

Babylon and Polynesia DLC are required (or look at the "hack" in bug reports section)
Incomparable with "starting scout" type mods - Scout is classical unit now
It should work with any other mods which doesn't rearrange technologies at first three eras or earlier.
Enlightenment Era is supported (their happiness line of buildings will be changed if EE will be activated)
"Trading Posts Grow into ..." mods are supported
"Cities of Marble" is supported

List of all mods I'm using

There are new versions like each week - I still got new ideas regularly. But mostly they are not essential so you can freely play current game till completion with the version you have and then upgrade just for new game.
