About this mod
Changes the Swedish civilization, with much improved voices, some new icons and minor changes to skins of units. This is my vision of how the Swedish faction should have been like at the release.

You should not have any other mods installed, there will probably be errors. This mod is just for personal fun, and only works with Singleplayer.
I'm a big enthusiast of the 30 Years War period (early 1600's), hence the changes and focus on these kinds of units. Me and my friends also recorded the Swedish voices in the ''Wars of Liberty'' mod for the original AoE III back in the day. Those recordings are used here again, since I didn't like some of the new official voices in DE (which was unbearable to listen to IMO and subpar quality). I have also generated accurate Swedish AI voices and meticulously edited them for additional units.
The following units have new voices:
* Explorer
* Pikeman
* Musketeer
* Carolean
* Vasa Guard
* Finnish Savolax Jaeger
* Spy
* Settler Wagon
* All artillery units
* All ship units
Changes/fixes/additions:
* Helmets instead of hats for the Carolean and Hakkapelit in the early game
* New icon for Pikemen
* New icon for Hussar & Uhlan + changed unit skin in early game
* New icon for Black Riders (30 Years War cuirassiers) + changed unit skin to ''normal horses''
* Replaced Crossbowman with Musketeer, also available for the Dutch and Germans
* Changed hat and added backpack for the Swedish Royal arquebusier of the Vasa Order
* Treaty of Roskilde: Finnish Savolax Jaegers changed. Can be trained at the Tavern + new icons
* Treaty of Roskilde: Vasa Guard halberdiers changed + new icos
* Torps keeps their early timber-and-grass-roof-look until the 4.th age
* Swedish church changed to the German one (which looks better IMO)
* New avatar icon (Gustavus Adolphus) for the Swedes in singleplayer. Added the old ones for the Dutch, German, Spanish and Russians aswell
Enjoy! :)
