I consider GS to be some of the peak of civ designs.I think Maori’s design was a stroke of genius.
Inland Sea, perhaps? The map is pretty much the same all the time, just with different wiggly bits around the edge of the water. They would still have to use land forces for the Civs that start further out from the sea, but they could flourish quite nicely. Added bonus they won't settle on some two-tile chunk of tundra crap near the poles either.For the Maori, my concern iis that (as far as I know) they're OP on any island map, and not on underpowered on larger continent maps like continent or pangea. Is there a map that's balanced for them, so naval power matters, but not so much that they have a huge advantage?
I actually really like inland sea, I'll try this out. I stated a game with fractal.Inland Sea, perhaps?

I don't like Maori for islands play but I love them for their production output and the porn yield that comes with sanctuary district.For the Maori, my concern iis that (as far as I know) they're OP on any island map, and not on underpowered on larger continent maps like continent or pangea.

I'm sorry. What yield?!I don't like Maori for islands play but I love them for their production output and the porn yield that comes with sanctuary district.
Oh, I assumed it was a typo, not jargon or slang. My bad!Maori is very good to play with sanctuary districts as it maximizes the yield of virgin adjacent hexes (no builds, no chopping) stacking with this civ's bonus yields on virgin hexes. Result bountifull tantalising yield porn

One of the top reasons to play as Maori is that you know you'll never run into Kupe in your game.And AI Maori is just annoying
Top reason not to allow Maori in the game is that it has the by far most annoying theme song of all civs in the game.One of the top reasons to play as Maori is that you know you'll never run into Kupe in your game.

I've never been huge on Maori since I don't normally play a culture game.
