Definitely a problem. The governor has a basic but adequate idea of how to use the other specialists, but is clueless when it comes to healers. This is probably difficult or impossible to fix. As a human, I'd be happy if the governor never assigned them, because the situations in which...

I like that the RIFE team is systematically redesigning improvement yields from the ground up; I'm excited to see the results. One issue that I'm sure you've thought of but that I haven't seen discussed yet is how specialist economy fits in with this. As the projected improvement system...

Hmmmmm . . . . Rather than being fully functional for the adopting civilization at the moment of conversion, religions now require study before their secrets are unlocked. Said study is naturally undertaken by Monk units specific to the particular religion, of course. The more they study, the...

These suggestions take culture the way Firaxis wanted it to be thought of (attractiveness of a civilization to foreigners) and try to give it more important in actual gameplay. I think this approach to culture/the creative trait in FFH has some fundamental problems, however. First, it...

Glad to hear that this is on the table. I'll share my attempt at a minimal rework. I think there's a case for a more thoroughgoing reconsideration than the following, but that would clearly take a lot more thought, testing, etc. I as stated, I think the biggest problems are with Arcane...

You have to pay a one time fee to spread it, but there's no maintenance. I agree that with resource spreading there's going to be a lot more things like the Archos/Masquerade abuse. The BTS system of corporate maintenance had a lot of problems, so probably just focus on keeping the...

Two things I'd like to see: 1. An official list of suggested game settings. You could start with simply disclosing what the various mods use when designing/testing. Typical settings for me would be normal game speed, a relatively crowded map (i.e. Erebus Continent small/low sea/11 civs...

I got another crash ten turns later in the above game. Sure enough, the Khazad had somehow gotten their hands on another healing salve. A search which I really should have done before revealed that this is a known bug with equipment-bearing treasure chests (healing salves in my case) and...

I get a persistent crash when ending my turn in the attached game. After some testing, I traced the problem to a treasure chest in the Mazatl city of Nochtli, which city is being captured by the Khazad on the turn of the crash. Some kind of Mazatl reaction to the invasion is involved here...

In this savegame, I research Honor as Elohim, but Empyrean remains unfounded (and I don't receive an Ecclesiastic). Entering world builder and gifting myself Ecclesiastics yields bizarre results. (Popup announces that Empyrean has been founded in Cahir Abbey, Ecclesiastic consumed, no religion...
