All Special Units work like this:

if you have a state Religion, For Example Light, you can create Jedi Trainee's. You cannot create higher level unit. Once a trainee gets enough experience, it can be upgraded to the next level unit. Once that unit gets enough experience, it can be upgraded to the next level and so on. At the 4th level you can choose which one to upgrade too. Each one has different abilities and stats. At the 5th level you are only allowed 3 of those units. On the 6th level you are only allowed one.

Can you change "Jedi Trainee" to "Jedi Initiate"?

Also, could you explain the reasoning for "The True Way" and "Potentium"? I'm not familiar with them and I don't think many others are either.

Thanks Civmansam :goodjob:

Changed to Initiate :)

The True Way was the Vuuzhan Vong's religion. A Wookiepedia article about it is here:http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Yuuzhan_Vong_religion


Potentium was a way to think of the force. A wookiepedia article about it is here:http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Potentium

This is what I think is a good system for the force:

If that guy is willing to work with us that would be a big help. A simple consultant to make this system work smoothly. :)

Maybe, but Shqype or someone else with python could probably figure it out very easily as well. I think even I understand somewhat how it works

I really like this outline. It makes the religious units very powerful, which is good.

Yes but even though they are powerful, they are hard to make and not easy to destroy. So you won't have huge armies of religious units and it will be more like your religious units are semi-heroes

The rarity of them makes them all the better.

Yes but maybe the non believer's need a boost. Right now they're probably the weakest of all the religions

I think you're right there.

In case people haven't read about it, I believe it's been agreed that the religions will be races as opposed to the above Light/Dark idea.

Probably should delete this thread, and start a new one, with the current ideas for races. Or change this to a thread about civics, as that is what the light/dark side things will be.

Additional religions could be Yuuzhan Vong polytheism and the Fallanassi religion.

True way and potentium are very familiar to Star Wars fans Rabbit Alex. Potentium is technically the gray side and true way is confusing but recognizable.

Well, it's been mentioned all over, but you might have missed it. Instead of using religions as force stances, we will have them as races, such as the Wookies or the humans. For force stances, we will use civics.

Yes, and the current idea for Force civics is:
Indifference (None)
Shamanism/Mysticism
Persecution
Jedi Order
Sith Order
