Spoiler Current kit :


Runestone UI:
Available at Writing
Can be built in owned or adjacent neutral territory 2 tiles away from another Runestone. Claim neutral tiles on construction. Does not remove any features on construction
Provide double movement on this and adjacent tiles to the owner of Runestone
Yields:
+1 :c5culture:Culture +2 :c5production:Production +2 :c5faith:Faith
Education +1 :c5science:Science +1 :c5faith:Faith
Printing press +1 :c5science:Science +1 :c5production:Production
Scientific Theory +1 :c5science:Science +1 :c5culture:Culture
Radio +1 :c5culture:Culture

Rationale: Runestones more associated with marking stones, which should be constructed not in Cities but somewhere amongst nature. Current Lighthouse replacement is unique but a bit awkward
Note: art/model required
-

Longship renamed to Drakkar
available at Chivalry instead of Physics
add Reconnaissance promotion

Rationale: Unlock at Physics means that it can be built without Fishing and Sailing, therefore moved to Chivalry + it futher away from Berserker now. Revealing tiles without gaining anything is not so fun - personally never used Caravels for revealing just because it means less XP for Explorers. Earlier unlock means that player has no choice since Explorer still unawailable - that's why Reconnaissance proposed. About naming - "Drakkar" sound more brutal than "Longship"
-

UA - everything the same exept "...earn :c5gold:Gold, :c5culture:Culture, and spend no movement when Pillaging."

Rationale: Culture bonus moved from Runestone UB
 
The only thing that seems more or less appropriate is Kurgan from Civ 6
If thinking toward normal Runestone there are some stock models. So, the question is - How hard it would be to make an improvement from simple Blender 3D model?
 
The civ is absolutely broken if we don't gate the pillage culture behind a tech that they won't normally go for. With the proposal, it's just beeline Berserkers and win.
 
This proposal can be accomplished without new DLL code, and is therefore sponsored by @azum4roll.
 
Provide double movement on this and adjacent tiles to the owner of Runestone
This part is definitely new code
Also, it requires new art assets for a 3d model though. That's an even taller order
 
Timestamp post to arrange all the threads in a neat order.
