Leugi's Byzantine Harald Hardrada

描述
Adds Harald Hardrada as an alternative leader for Byzantium! Requires Gathering Storm, New Frontier Pass and the Leader Pass.
It has become a personal post-april fools tradition for me to make a leader that didn't literally "rule" the nation they represent but having them is still fun and interesting for Civ's inherent "what if" theme.

This year of course after having Varangian Harald Hardrada, my first thought was to make a Byzantine Harald. Given that Harald worked so much alongside the nobility of Constantinople, it sure makes for a cool what-if scenario. And of course, seeing Harald dressed in purple and with a more mask-like Varangian helm is part of the fun.

What is interesting is that I made it keep regular Harald's ability because it works so nice to have the Longship alongside the Dromon. However, if you would rather have the new Varangian Guard ability, there is an option at the Setup menu. This option also gives Harald the Tagma unique unit which turns him into a full-on Varangian leader.

Pick whichever Harald you prefer for whatever you need. Regular Harald as a Byzantine leader is great for an Isles map, but if you are playing on Lakes I definitely recommend using the alternative ability with the Tagma unique unit.

Have fun people!
For the record, the art edit is 2D, we can't edit Leader Pass models and I wanted a quick adjustment for this tbh. I personally prefer having a cool difference even if static.
This mod is also part of the Modder's Pass! A group of mods we modders have been doing to complement the Leader Pass. Remember to check it out!

He also spent quite a while in Ukraine, serving under Yaroslav the Wise, before going to Constantinople, then, as the story goes:

Harald stole Byzantine treasury, blinded an emperor, and escaped back to Kyiv... then he became king of Norway, traveled to America, and conquered British until king for a few days, Harald Godwinson became a king for a few weeks, then Normans came.

Anyway there's a Rus' civ with Rurik and I think adding Hardrada there is good, he worked in Kyiv longer than he spent in England IIRC.

For anybody that doesn't know, yes, Harald Hardrada was a Byzantine mercenary for a while. Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.

Just why?

Its funny, the mecenary bonus makes more sense with him in Byzantines than Norway

do a leader swap for harald and england civ since that would be a more sensible what-if

Would it be possible to have a version where you just use the original animated Harald unchanged (no color tweaks, etc)?

I liked the idea of the what if leaders its cool. What other leaders did you do for this? I looked at your workshop and I don't see any. Sorry for asking if its in a obvious spot
