Maybe make it so that military units can only go 3-4 tiles away from cultural borders until some tech, maybe compass. Civilian units should be able to either ignore this rule or be able to go farther from cultural borders, since settlers, workers, and missionaries can be considered more...

About adopting a minor religion as state religion: I think it should be allowed if some threshold for spreading it to your cities has been reached. Something like if 80 or 90+% of your cities have it, it can be adopted. Judaism and Sikhism were/are intricately linked with the ideas of the states...

Nah, he's mostly disappeared. He got cancer, lost the election (although I think he may be a councilor, either him or Doug) and basically fizzled out back into obscurity. Doesn't really matter to me, I live like 5000 km away from them. Although, apparently the infidelity and shenanigans of the...

No really! Rob Ford is the greatest statesman in all history! He buys all the crack in Toronto to keep the streets clean for the children! Won't someone PLEASE think of the children!!! He makes the most noble sacrifice, befriending criminals (to keep them busy and away from the children...

More statesmen: Louis Riel Georges-Etienne Cartier Lester B. Pearson Joey Smallwood Clifford Sifton James Douglas ... Rob Ford

Gasp, this is how you get banned from Canada. Also, Alexander Graham bell could be considered a great scientist, although he could also work for America or England.

About the scouting issue, I think we may be able to poach an idea from EU. Ships at sea suffer from attrition based on how long they are at sea, and if they are gone too long, the whole fleet will be gone. Maybe we could do a similar idea here. Units outside of your cultural borders get, say, 10...

Yeah, I don't know how the AI actually works at a code level, but the AI is pretty dumb. Anything to make it more... intelligent/more engaging in realpolitik is a good thing. That brings me to another idea: is it possible to have peace treaties involve concessions from both sides? I've always...

What is the oil 1SE to Calgary meant to represent? The oil of Alberta is far to the north, and it's already there. Is this oil meant to be Bakken? If it is, I think it should be moved a bit east, maybe 2E and 1S of where it is now. Besides, both civs who will ever control it (England and...

Those unit models are nice, but the face buttons look a bit out of place. The art style of the faces seems so much different from the base style, so I think they would have to be edited a bit to better match the current male face buttons.

One other thing about SoI is that the cities tend to be small and weak, with a few major power centres. Most of the SoI map can only support cities to like size 6 because of the fact that most of the map is desert, semidesert, and plains. SoI also tends to go a bit slower (whether it is from the...

Random question: Is this game multithreaded? I know it's like 10 years old and all, but if it isn't then if it is possible to multithread it, maybe it could be (though I wouldn't doubt it would be a crap-ton of work). One of the only things I dislike about the mod is the slow speed, especially...

I'm interested in what kind of mechanics you are thinking of adding. We've already has some discussion on making religions unique and changing up the unit roster, and I hope that these can be added in. Something I've wanted is better and possibly religion/region specific quests, which can fill...

If the US is settling the prairies and BC then that is a good thing. BC especially. During the 1800s, there was a real fear that the would invade the prairies and easily push aside the few settlers there. Plus BC and the Oregon territory in general was a real conflict ground until the signing of...

Ooh, does this mean that 1.12 will be released soon? I'm fairly sure that the UN/AP was the last thing on the list to be completed before the release.
