Good idea

Actually, one of my future LPs could be one where I can not use the most OP units/buildings/concepts. For example I might restrict myself not to use:

- GS,
- research agreements
- great library
- hagia sofia
- porcelain tower
- artilery
- liberty policy tree
- stealth bombers
- uranium
- sell resources for half price (125 max per lux resource)

What do you think for this? Should I add/change something?

If you felt the need to lower the difficulty because you can't conquer non-capital cities, in this setup I'd suggest to lower three difficulties.

You think so? Research could be a problem in this setup. At least I should be able to use GS for golden ages...

As well as economy and growth. Although keshiks beat everything. But since you don't want OP'ed stuff in your game... China may fit. On king.

I would just let you not use great scientists. And only sign research agreements with civ you have a DOF To see how it would change the tech space..

Proparly olso don't built the great library or porcelain tower.. Because it can give you great scientists...

The rest you can use(building notre dam hagia is all possible)

Just want to sea how the game would look if Great scientist are nerved (but because it isn't we just bann them )

Let me refine the idea, based on your inputs.

In this game the player is not allowed to use the most OP units/buildings/concepts, which means:

- GS may not be used for discovering technology
- Research agreements may only be signed with friends.
- Great Library and Porcelain Tower may not be built.
- Luxury and strategy resources may only be traded with friends.
- May not use Liberty policy tree
- May not use stealth bombers.

Artilery is OP, but without it, I fear that there aren't enough alternatives to have a decent battle until modern era.... Nukes are always fun to use, so I would leave them in the game.

I am actualy ok with :

luxury and strategic resource trading with persons who you don't have DOF with.. And using the liberty tree.

using stealth bombers with these rules it will become thougher to get them So by the time you use them you proparly would allready won..

I would say these are the rules :

- GS may not be used for discovering technology
- Research agreements may only be signed with friends.
- Great Library and Porcelain Tower may not be built.

You could basicly say that the country has a rule where making ideas or theories is prohibed So great scientists are rarely making a breakthrough.
Something like when christianity was in europe and the pope ruled people couldn't express themself.

But it still you're lets play So if you want ta use extra rules or other rules go ahead I will watch it

Well, chazzycat pulled off a science victory on immortal without RA's, GS bulbing and conquering at all. Raw power only.
Blocking Liberty might be interesting if you leave the trade as is.
