Great People should have a death alert in addition to their birth, with a few specific ones generating a "We Love The King"'s Day celebration in other civs.

Not that bad an idea tbh... Castles always seemed a bit weak.

Do too little, and gone too fast. Not to mention, they’re locked behind Walls. It’d be nice to see something more done with them.

Castles are really strong IMO, promotions are really valuable, but it'd be nice for obsoleted buildings in general to get some tourism boosts to reflect the tourism that old and economically prominent cities attract

I like to put my Great Generals on siege weapons cause they're a lot more expensive to replace than other units and it really helps keep them alive. Plus then they retain all their experience points when upgraded, which also becomes free for an otherwise insanely expensive cost.

You don't need a castle to get to level 2 bombards. Theocracy, Conquest, or a settled Great General can all bump you up to level 2.
For the cost of building a walls/castle, you could train another bombard and still have
left over. I'd rather sink those into another bombard, especially since I never train more than a handful of siege units anyways.Dracosolon

Not enough Completely Dumb Ideas in this thread as of late.
There should be a penalty to construction speed for buildings that involve
if you play as Poland.

Religion dumb ideas:
Great prophet can cause biblical great plague events. (great flood & Egyptian plagues). All contacted rival pagan cities have all their water adjacent improvements destroyed and receive plague.
Protestantism holy city selection should be affected by ability to defenestrate the old faith. Should prioritize city that has a castle and/or near mountains.
Shia Islam shrine wonder similar to Guadalupe shrine - requires presence of Zoroastrianism.
The Americas need more diverse religions. Upon invention of civil rights have Buddhism, Islam, and Judaism peripheral / minor spread through the continents. Similarly Islam, Protestantism, and Catholicism through costal Africa.
