I have a request for a religion mod addon for Visa 3 for Warlords.
First and foremost, I would like some alternate way to found religion. I don't like automatically founding religions as a side effect of progressing up the tech tree. I've only used SD Religion, but True Prophets looks interesting too.
I would like to see Zoroastrianism and Shinto. Replacing Taoism and Confucianism isn't a problem, but adding new religions would be fine too.
It would be nice for religions to have different effects and characteristics, as in Abbamouse's mod.
It would be neat if there could be some way to have different polytheistic religions, with culturally specific pantheons, so Egypt would have the Ennead, Greece and Rome the Olympians, Germanics the Æsir, etc. Each would have its own religious wonder, with the Temple of Zeus at Olympus becoming a religious wonder. Perhaps, upon discovering Polytheism, one would be given the option of choosing a pantheon, or one would be randomly chosen by the game. Ideally each pantheon would have unique temple styles. In fact, the original impetus of this specific request was the desire to have polytheistic Romans or Egyptians without Hindu temples. Of course, I realize that this is very ambitious and will probably never happen.
The main thing I want is an alternate way for founding religions. I hate accidentally founding religions, sometimes two or three if I get ahead of the other civilizations. If anyone would be willing to make such a mod addon for Visa, or merge and update a couple of existing mods, I am sure an awful lot of players would be eternally grateful.
Mods that contain some of these features:
SD Religion
abbamouse Realistic Religions mod including Zoroastrianism
Tori Gate Mod with Shinto
True Prophets
