I was wondering, which tribe would be theoretically the best for obtaining #1 score in HoF. Actually, I was wondering if that would be Celts or Mayas.
To get high score, you must keep citizen happy. You use luxury slider for this. On huge map you must have big cities.
I have never played a histograph on a high level, but I assume keeping luxury slider high is not possible all the times, for example during war. And some cities are most likely corrupted as hell. That means there will be unhappy citizens. War may continue for a long time, for example 200 turns. Now, if you could switch to communism during war, you would get communal corruption, so every metropolis could be 100% happy with low luxury slider.
Because Celts are religious, you would lose no citizen during the 1-turn anarchy (if you make sure food boxes are almost full when you revolt). That would mean you could afford revolting several times and you could switch governments long before achieving world domination. After domination, you could switch to democracy, rush everything you need in the cities and switch back. That would result much higher per-turn score.
Mayans are industrous and Iroquous are commercial, but neither of those attributes does increase per-turn score, so you can manage without them. The only thing I can think of is that Mayans could maybe get faster domination because of faster workers, which result to more production. Does anybody ever use their UUs to fight? In such of a case, Celts would be even better, since their UU is faster and has higher attack.
I see there are no Celts in HoF histographs, so am I 100% wrong with my plan? Has anybody ever tried Celts for HoF histographic victory?
