Rice Out
The scientist found a way to make fuel from rice in mass production, but now your storage of rice is getting short and the price is rising.

Even though you ignored him, he went ahead and discovered the technology he needed. Unfortunately, you have no control over him, as you didn't fund him. And now, rice is in short supply and prices are rising.
The idiot! I told him we didn't need this! There's no global warming and we've still got plenty of oil.

maybe having wahabism/radical islamism in a city which is not its state ideology would increse the risk of a 'terrorist atrocity' happening to that civ.Or,indeed any ideology

Some suggestions:

The leader of a suppressed minority in [CIV] is travelling through your country, impressing the masses. Would you like to meet him?

Any ideas as to what this will entail?
PS good one!

If you pick either of these then there is a ?50%? chance of a 'recession' event
Any ideas as to what this will entail?

The opposite effect of a Golden Age. Just shorter and not that significant. And it would be great if it could "infect" other Civs, too.

Just an idea, maybe a bit "extrem" but that's the sens of it:
financial Trouble for a long Time
or some positive Effects and War
or even more financial Trouble but only for a short Time

Choosing option 1 makes Sid's Sushi Crisis 1 to appear next time
Choosing option 2 makes Sid's Sushi Crisis 2 to appear next time
They are basically the same, just that option 2 has less positives, since you gave no money to your scientist and therefore you are no technology leader.


Sid's Sushi Crisis 1: The Scientist found a way to make fuel from rice in mass production, you're Storage of rice is getting short and the Price on global markets is rising

Well, maybe I paniked a bit, global warming is not as bad after all, finance some more PR work... and import more oil! There must be more... somewhere...

no direkt cost, but for buying oil you have to pay 5 per turn, everytime you choose this option it's another +5!!!
Event will occur regularly

Puh, just about time, Oil is getting short, and I'm already swetting.
Make it a Law, that this fuel has to be used and buy the missing rice by all means from global markets.

if you have sid's sushi +10 :mad: for some time in all cities with sids sushi.

never make this event apear again (at least not with rice ... he he he)

No Rice??? No Way!!! We should try to find alternative Fuel Sources. Give the Scientist EVEN more money and buil new research Infrastrucure.

+1:mad: in all sushi cities (since it takes a while to find alternatives)
-10%:hammers: for some time
+2 :) and +1:health: in all cities (all permanent)

everytime choosing this option makes event appear sooner next time and choosing it the 6th time your scientists make the breakthrough, this event will then never occure again, ... at least not with rice ... he he he )



Sid's Sushi Crisis 2: Although You ignored the Problem The Scientist found a way to make fuel from rice in mass production, but You are no technology leader so you cant export your knowledge...
By now you're Storage of rice is getting short and the Price on global market is rising.

This Idiot, didn't I tell him last time, that we don't need this, since there is NO global warming and we still got enough Oil? By the way, finance some more PR work... and import more oil! There must be more... somewhere...

civs with Sids sushi are likely to declare war (People are very angry, becaus of you a Sushi Roll now costs 300$...)
if you have sid's sushi +10 :mad: for some time in all cities with sids sushi.
direkt cost(maybe more than 10 per rice bonus on the map?)
never make this event apear again (at least not with rice ... he he he)

No Rice??? No Way!!! we should try to find alternative Fuel Sources. Give the Scientist more money and buil new research Infrastrucure.

+1:mad: in all sushi cities (since it takes a while to find alternatives)
-10%:hammers: for some time
no permanent Bonus, because you've ignored the Problem at first.
no direkt cost but 10% per turn of your income (increases by another +10%)
everytime choosing this option makes event appear sooner next time and choosing it the 7th time your scientists make the breakthrough, this event will then never occure again, ... at least not with rice ... he he he )



No matter what you do, you get into Trouble, more and more and more...
just sell your soul :deal: :deal: :deal: :deal:

If it is possible to alter relation between ALL Civs at rising food prices and combined with the "recession" from above this could be the end of a Civ IV World...

Yes, I guess -1 in relations is significant enough...

In an illegal/un-authorized attempt to gain more funds, a PMC/Military Legion (depends on government type) has attacked [countries name here] at a bad time for them. The remaining government is calling you a back stabbing war monger (not necessarily a bad thing)/moronic fool who can't keep his assassins loyal and citizens/confused generals want an answer.

a) Tell them we had nothing to do with the assault. (+1 :) in all cities for next year, can't declare war on anybody for whatever 20 turns equal in time is)

b) Tell them we had everything to do with the assault. (collect 500 :gold: for taking the blame for the mercenaries, -2 relations with [countries name here]

c) Hmm... Show them the proof of the PMCs/Military Legions association with [countries name here]. (+1 :) in all cities for next year, -2 relations with [countries name here])

All added :)

How about a false nuclear alert event?

If you have bad relations between two nuclear armed countries, there is a 1% chance every turn that a false nuclear alert will lead one of your generals to fire half of your nuclear arsenal at that country?

Statistically this would mean that once every 10 years a nuclear war between USA and Russia breaks out...
I don't like that one...sorry. :)

The religion of your homeland has been subject to RIDICULE in a book of <country>.Your religious leaders are appalled
-Bad,bad, infidels!-1 relations with country, small+happiness in cities
-Im not bothered!no change in relations,+unhappiness in cities
-Fatwa! massive popularity,spawning of barb units in <COUNTRY> for 3 turns.-3 relations with that nation and its allies
-Jihad!declare war,+50% military production,massive popularity

I think this shall be most likely for theocracy civs as the most islamic civs are.
EDIT: oh and i thought of another thing, if possible when this event comes up for you when you play as a (for example) islamic civ and get this event, if this happens there should be a small chance that other theocratic (or acctualy maybe non free religon) countries with the same religion declare war.

An edit to option A + 1 or 2 :mad: in city/cities.

love the sound of these gentlemen.

really looking forward to this mod when it eventually arrives :)

I'll have a go at implementing these events. Please let me know which ones (if not all of them) are definitely in.

I reckon anything that doesn't directly rely on units/buildings can be done. They're all going to be in eventually.

Running with the Cows:

An annual event of running from angry cows in [city] has spread like fever across the country! However, animal rights activists and public health officials fear an outbreak of disease from animal to human. How do we go about preventing this?

1) Ignore the scientists. They do not know that what does not kill only makes one stronger!

+3 :) in all cities for 20 turns, 90% chance for permanent 3 :yuck: in all cities.

2) Cautiously inform citizens of the scientific community's concerns, but do not ban the sport.

Costs 1000 :gold:, +1 :) in all cities for 20 turns, 50% chance for permanent 1 :yuck: in all cities.

3) Ban the sport to prevent any outbreaks. Launch a public relations blitz to make sure no cities are affected.

costs 5000 :gold:, +2 :mad: in all cities for 20 turns, 90% chance for permanent +3 :health: in all cities

Grey Goo!

Requirements: Some Nanotechnology and Artificial Intelligence Technologies.
5% chance of occurring.
A group of nanobots have achieved sentience and are multiplying at a massive rate. At current exponential growth rates, these nanobots will begin to choke out the sun!

1) We must inform all world leaders of this predicament!

+3 diplomacy with all leaders; +3 :) in all cities; costs 5000 :gold:

2) Keep to this to ourselves; if word gets out, then we will face the wrath of the world!

+1 :) in all cities; costs 1000 :gold:; 10% chance of game ending

3) This is impossible. The lunatic scientists have once again condemned our nation to gross hysteria and mass panic.

-3 diplomacy with all leaders; 25% chance of game ending.

With a chance to end the game the probabilty of this occuring shyould be less then 0.0001.
