TGC Newspapers (MOD)

Hey, remember the newspaper mechanic?

This is a TGC sub-mod* that replaces Victoria 2's generic newspaper mastheads with real historical papers! It also adds some newspapers to countries that normally use the culture-group generic ones. The mod is limited by my personal knowledge of 19th century newspapers and countries I've played, so if you know of any 'papers you want to see, send me an email on my webzone (its the first part of this site at gmail). MegaUpload link below.

*This might work on vanilla/other mods, but it's untested.
