Dear Rhye, dear all, Thank you very much for the possibility of experimenting RFC (v.73?). For the past 4 weeks I have been playing a few hours every weekend. I tried to play a few hundred turns with each civ, exception made to the pre-colombian or the pastoralist civs of central Asia. I had...

Hi all. I'm trying to contribute a bit for the Civ’s victory path ideas. I also searched a bit for mods that can add more flavourful and coherent gameplay on RFC. I don’t know if the ideas proposed are executable or not, maybe it is difficult to mod some of the victory conditions and maybe some...

Dear Rhye, Dear all, few ideas for the problems at hand: Victory The idea of "role playing victory" is extremely cool, eventually much more organic and "adaptable". Nevertheless, there are some issues that could be clarified in order to propose tangible ideas on how civs may get victory: will...

Dear all and, especially, dear Rhye, Thank you so much for this news. I'm a great fan of RFC, and I recurrently come back to RFC, RFC-DOC, RFC-Europe, RFC-Greek World, and even the RFC boardgame. But I've been loosing my interest on civ series due to lack of an hexagon-based Rhye's mod or...

I agree that grounding the game to it's historical-geographic context is fundamental, but the "map" could be extended to cover all the eastern world at the time as well. In fact, India and China were not that much detached from Rome or Persia, for instance. The history of ancient...

For what it is worth, I find the " clear barbarians -- hold the location-- settle " pace of expansion fundamental for these kind of historical games, especailly the ones centered arround ancient/classical mediterranean. Anyone who has had a slight idea of the process of roman expansion towards...

Very interestig information. I strongly agree with the concept. I tried to follow it (especially the religious/military/education triad) and present a more developed idea: This idea tries to cope with the quick military draft + religious control idea while also allowing for some stability...

Santa Maria da Vitória or Monastery of Batalha - Portugal (national pantheon of the second dynasty - classic historical golden age). May be used for increase loyalty pressure or something. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batalha_Monastery

Most logical options. All of them (or almost) should have made an entry long time ago... The Ottomans especially. I would also like to see Assyria.

With the new loyalty system wouldn't it be possible to set a major increase in loyalty at the Historical Spawn Date of a civilization in a predetermined area and a major decrease for any controller of the cities in that area? I am no modder whatsoever, but if the access to the codes become...

I'm In. Good luck to you all!

Interesting idea. I was also disapointed by the Acropolis, although before Pericles I would have bet on a Holy Site. But your idea stands stronger. Acropolis couls be a Unique encampment, in everything equal to a regular one, but without the placement restriction nearby city (but must be built...

Very good vice-king of India, not a portuguese king- Albuquerque could be a great admiral, IMO, but for leader of Portugal, I would like to se João II for main reasons: - Splendid global politics, who gave Portugal the "golden age" and which could fit well into the agenda system; - The most...

Very interesting idea. I do not use this thread usually, still I was developing an idea for Portugal when I discovered yours. It is really good wither in historical arguments and strategic view. Still, If you do not mind, I would like to propose some modifications: Portugal João II (Leader)...

Thanks
