I had a similar idea for a mod, but I haven't had the time to work on it. Some ideas I had:
(1) England should get a Player's Company or Player's Guild to replace the Ampitheatre. This would be good as it reflects Britain's long history of theater and the cultural impact it has left. The problem with the "Textile mill" is that EVERY industrial country that makes clothes has textile mills. An industrial-era building for the English would be good though.
(2) The Aztecs should not get a scout unit, but either switch the Jaguar Warrior with a classical/medieval unit and give it Aztlan warrior to replace the warrior. Another idea is the Calmecac http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calmecac which could replace the barracks.
(3) France should get the Lycee to replace the public school, which would give culture as well as science. France could also just get the Foreign Legion which they had in Vanilla.
(4) Mayans should not get the ball court as a UB. Ball courts were a ubiquitous part of Mesoamerican culture and not something unique to the Mayans. There are plenty of alternatives, such as the Caracol to replace the observatory (could be an observatory which does not need to be next to mountains). Another idea is the milpa which is a method of farming the jungle which the Mayans perfected. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milpa
(1)This would have to do with points of view. After finishing the initial phase of the project I'll consider add some alternative uniques because there are lots of suggestions. Perhaps dig deeper and get uniques that not only fit the civ but also fit the theme idea of the civ.
(2)I disagree, the Eagle and the Jaguar were the elite of aztec army and a pillar to their warfare. However I can announce that I'm about to introduce some changes to the Eagle making it more unique.
(3) Same as (1)
(4) Also same as (1) although I'm inclined with giving them another unit, possibly the holkan or so
A simple suggestion - would you consider giving the Japanese Dojo a different, more unique bonus than the extra culture? Perhaps something more aggression oriented like "units built in this city gain certain promotion" or something like that? Would make them more interesting. Thanks in advance.
I'll look into it. As this is an experimental version I still haven't played through all uniques and as I've imported this unique from whoward69 I didn't think on making changes to it
