AG's Ideology Mod

[amateurgamer88]

Hi everyone! This is amateurgamer88. The main purpose of this post is to add new Ideologies with their own unique(ish) tenets. I've already started working on this and got level 1 tenets done. I hope to at least add two new ideologies that people can include in their games. I might tweak existing Ideologies but ideally I just balance the new Ideologies to the existing ones.

Spoiler New Victories :

Currently, the plan is to have two new VC in addition to the existing ones: Domination, Science, Culture, Diplomatic and Time.

The new new VC will be Religious (RV) and Economic (EV).

Spoiler Religious Victory :

Religious Victory:
Gather the Holy Relics necessary for the [insert Wonder here] to prove the dominance of your religion!

Holy Relics are a unique resource you accumulate throughout the game. You get Holy Relics by:

• 1 for expending the Great Monk regardless of the action taken
• 1 for your Reformation Wonder.
• 1 for the following % world converted (50%/75%/100%)
• Some Wonders
• Some Tenets

The Holy Relics will then be used to build the Wonder for a player to achieve the Religious Victory. The Wonder (TBD) will be unlocked after you build a National Wonder (completion of this will provide a notification to all players) unlocked at Satellites. The Wonder will require 25 (number is subjected to change) Holy Relics to be built and the civ to build it is declared victorious.

A lot has happened since I last started this mod. As I find more (and hopefully will continue to) free time, I'll be putting more time into this mod. For now, it's in an organization stage with some rough ideas determined. There's a general direction as to where this mod is headed but details are still being discussed and hashed out. Once more details are determined, finalized and coded, they will show up here. Otherwise, please see the threads below.

Spoiler Archived stuff :

I'm open to ideas if people want certain tenets or changes made or even a new ideology. From what I've tested in my games, everything works for the human player. Sadly, the AIs aren't picking these new Ideologies so I will need to dive deeper into the dll files and that's going to take longer to figure out. Below is a screenshot of what I've accomplished so far.

Spoiler Current Progress :

Spoiler To Do List :

Finish Theocracy Ideology
Create More Victory Conditions to accommodate the new Ideologies.
Rework old Ideologies since more Victory Conditions are added. (Some tenets also need serious reworking)
Finish Monarchy Ideology
Mod so AIs will pick new ideologies too.

I'm working on the Theocracy Ideology as shown below. The numbers will likely be tweaked and some ideas still need to be fleshed out more (or changed if I cannot mod it). I also need to come up with better names and such.

Spoiler Theocracy Ideology :

Spoiler Tenets :

Rule of God (Tier 3): Capital gains +10 of all yields. May purchase Great Musicians with Faith.

Shaman-Kings (Tier 3): Give a unique promotion to the following units: Landship, Light Tank, Tank, Helicopter Gunship and Modern Armor

The Caliphate (Tier 2): Yield penalties in puppeted cities reduced by 30%. +1 local Happiness from every Courthouse.

Ancient Patriarchate (Tier 2): May build Ancient Patriarchate (up to 5) in your empire. Patriarchate (+5 Faith. 20% of Faith purchases is converted into Culture and Gold. Missionaries get an extra spread action and are 100% stronger in conversion strength.)


Religious Courts (Tier 1): Courthouses gain +3 Gold and Faith. -10% Faith costs for purchasing Buildings, Missionaries and Inquisitors.

Pilgrimage (Tier 1): Holy Sites gain +5 Faith. +25% Pressure in all nearby Cities without your majority Religion.

Spoiler Improved Units :

The tier 3 Shaman-king tenet gives a promotion to the following units:

Light Tank, Tank, Helicopter Gunship and Modern Armor

"Shaman Blessing A" promotion (+1 Movement. Ignore ZoC. +33% CS when attacking, 33% to Withdraw from battle, +33% CS when in enemy territory)

"Shaman Blessing B" promotion (+1 Movement. Ignore ZoC. +33% RCS when attacking Units above 50 HP, 33% to Withdraw from battle, +33% RCS)

The alpha version of the mod is out! The Theocracy ideology is completed. I checked what I could and the yields, promotions and buildings are all showing up as expected. However, I sadly lack the time to test the balance of this ideology as it requires full games given how a good portion of the ideology is tied to spreading religion, pressure and tourism through sharing the same religion. This ideology is mainly focused on domination victory and cultural victory with some tools for science victory. At least, that was my intention. I hope there will be some people willing to give this a try and give me some feedback!

 

[Cat-du-fromage]

I really like the idea, i will make a try for our next multiplayer game

 

[How to know]

A big thank you for this wonderful mod, will try to complete a game with it. Been a long time since I ever reached modern era though...

 

[Drakle]

Theocracy Tenats don't make sense. They are from all sorts of different religions. They should be generic religious stuff, while the specific references would be for the religious beliefs.

Anyway, theocracies and Monarchy don't make sense as ideologies. They weren't new ideas introduced by industrialism. They are the old ideas that got tossed out. And are essentially already represented by social policies.

Thanks! I hope it works and brings a new experience to your games.

A big thank you for this wonderful mod, will try to complete a game with it. Been a long time since I ever reached modern era though...

I understand that games can take awhile. I appreciate even feedback about level 1 tenets if you don't get too far as this needs quite a bit of balancing.

Theocracy Tenats don't make sense. They are from all sorts of different religions. They should be generic religious stuff, while the specific references would be for the religious beliefs.

Anyway, theocracies and Monarchy don't make sense as ideologies. They weren't new ideas introduced by industrialism. They are the old ideas that got tossed out. And are essentially already represented by social policies.

First, I agree that my naming conventions don't work. It's something that will hopefully be fleshed out in time that would still be in tuned with the ideas I put out. As for religious beliefs. part of the problem is that we already have plenty of pantheons, founders, enhancers, followers and reformation beliefs. Adding more beliefs just make it tougher to make decisions while also making balancing a nightmare. In addition, modding tenets is a bit easier than beliefs due to more tools being available.

Regarding ideologies needing to be new ideas introduced by industrialism, I have to disagree with that. There are plenty of tenets in our current ideologies that existed long before industrialism. The Urbanization in Freedom can be argued to have started with agriculture as more people headed to cities. While this has accelerated with industrialization, it certainly wasn't a new phenomenon. The democratic ideas also weren't new either as they were just refined over time. For Order, was Guerrilla Warfare only something invented after industrialism? Isn't Autocracy another form of Monarchy or vice versa?

I think we can agree that there are many modern ideas that had their roots in ideas of the past. Am I aiming for realism? Absolutely not! There can be endless discussion of what is considered ideologies and tenets. My goal with this mod is to introduce what hopefully are fun ideas to add a new experience. The goal of Theology is to make Holy Sites more relevant while testing to see if spreading religion in the late game is viable or not. It's meant to be fun and a testing ground for ideas. I didn't create a mod to go into deep discussion of ideologies and other questions that are still in heated debate between people. Monarchy will just another testing ground for new ideas.

Since you mentioned social policies, we have to realize that each social policy tree are representing different aspects and each tree have 7 parts to them (opener, 5 policies and finisher). Comparing that to a total 17 tenets of a ideology, it's clear that one can help let imagination go further while the other is a bit more limited due to how many ideas you can incorporate without overfilling one policy. From a modder's perspective, I like ideologies a bit more since I have more space to work with. I also created this as a modmod so people can choose if they want play with it or not. It's all about choices for people and I personally know that I don't mind playing the mods I make or else it just doesn't make sense for me to start them.

 

[Cokolwiek]

I like the proposal very much, but I'm gonna be frank with you: late game is generally not polished or balanced still, even in basic things like buildings, most of which are completely redundant past industrial, and adding two very generic ideologies into equation is not gonna improve anything.
Also I do not think ideology based around a religion makes any sense from any point of view. By this point in the game it is mostly a settled matter and yields from it (which very essential in early game) are completely sidelined by basic yields explosion in industrial onward. Purchasing GP is not enough to substantiate whole ideology.
Furthermore, many people simply do not play past industrial era, as most of the games tends to be resolved by that time.

Having said that, I really like the idea itself, and I am willing to help you with ideas for tenets, names, and balancing. But I really think you should cut it down for one ideology, which may include theocratic and monarchic elements and boost some yields and play styles neglected by other ideologies.

But I really think you should cut it down for one ideology, which may include theocratic and monarchic elements and boost some yields and play styles neglected by other ideologies.

To a certain extent, I do agree with your view of the late game. There's definitely a lot to be desired as it doesn't have the same feel as the early and mid game. My goal was never to improve the late other than giving more choices. I also recognize that there needs to be a big incentive for someone to pick the new ideologies over the other ones. You are right about the yields explosion as it's accelerated very quickly nearing the end of the game.

I disagree that most games are resolved by Industrial Era. It's possible that people get bored and think they are ahead enough. I used to play a lot on Marathon speed and I know the feeling of the turns dragging on for simply too long after awhile. We also have to remember that Epic and Marathon speeds aren't very well balanced compared to Standard speeds. This is especially true for warmongers as there's a larger window for use your advantages in technology and players generally will outperform AI if there are more turns involved. I can see how a more exciting late game can encourage people to keep going until they get a victory screen. I also try to balance everything to Standard speed so, until I play test it myself, it's really hard to tell if this is over or underwhelming.

I definitely appreciate any help. I'll wait until I hear about your ideas before deciding if I'll have only one new ideology. There are some ideas I have with monarchic elements and I can always change things in the theocratic to make it more alluring for certain players. It's still alpha version with lots of room for improvement.

 

[Cokolwiek]

My goal was never to improve the late other than giving more choices.

I understand what you mean, I had probably written it too harshly. But I strongly believe that in providing a new fresh, thought-out ideology you absolutely can provide both more choice and improve a late game feeling a bit.

I disagree about some of your points, but won't respond to them, as I don't want to pollute your thread, which should be kept tidy for mod feedback, help and development. I am guilty of serious off-topic discussions already. Anyway, I do not think we just a have a room for two additional ideologies. I suggest we switch to messages.

If you have ideas or want to discuss why there's no room for two ideologies, I'd prefer all that to be posted here. It might spark discussions from others and also give those interested an idea of how certain ideas were developed.

 

[pineappledan]

This might sounds a bit weird, but... what about eschatology as the main basis for the religious ideology?

If you think about what the political and ideological landscape looks like today, Communism hasn't really disappeared as an idea, fascism is still creeping on the outside, but the main ideological challenger to neoliberalism is theocratic states and inside actors that very much believe religion, specifically aspects of religion surrounding the end times, is core to their political identity.

As examples, look to zionists, end-times evangelicals, islamic extremist groups, Iran and its allies, ISIS, etc.

Focus on gameplay which give asymmetric bonuses, rather than pure upgrades. Ways of harrassing and agitating other civs without outright war. Some way of empowering and re-seeding the world with barbarians, partisans, and non-state actors.

I get where you're coming from and I wouldn't mind if I can mod those. The reason why there are pure upgrades is due to the fact that those tools are readily available. Something like spawning barbarians, partisans and all that cool stuff likely need new code, though I haven't checked existing codes to know for certain. I will look into those to see what can be done with my current modding abilities.

I was thinking a bit of your suggestion. However, my question is what victory condition are you going for if you are harassing and agitating other civs? It seems silly that someone would pick a ideology if it doesn't help them in achieving some victory. I can also see spawning barbarians and partisans become less and less useful as you move up difficulties due to the AI control massive forces that can crush these upstarts with relative ease.

I wonder if 2 new ideologies might be a good excuse to incorporate Stephen's Extra Victory Conditions mod?\

I would just call the ideology "Devotion" or something, similar to how Liberal ideology is called "Freedom", and Communism is "Order".

Devotion could focus on 3 victory types: Religious (have a certain % of the world population following your religion), Cultural, and Domination

Off the top of my head, here are some ideas for beliefs (not the full 7/7/3 complement):

Spoiler :

Tier 1:
Ribat
+3 and 2 to all Defensive and military training buildings. Can build Mujahideen (unique ranged scout unit, unlocked at Rocketry)

Divine Wind
Can purchase Air units with Faith. Air Units have +25% vs land and sea units.

Charitable Works
+25% Great Person Rate in all Cities. 100 Gold when a Great Person is Expended, scaling with Era.

Memorial to the Fallen
Cities can purchase Cenotaphs with Faith (3, 3, 3, +100% Religious Pressure). Faith Purchase costs reduced by 25%.

Religious Art
+3 to Great Works. +25% Tourism during Golden Ages.

Not-For-Profit Organization
+2 to Corporate Offices. Corporate Franchises in Foreign cities exert +50 Religious pressure (standard speed).

Tier 2:
Graveyard of Empire
Enemy units in your land take 5 damage each turn. Civilizations at war with you suffer 25% more Unit Maintenance and War Weariness.

Televangelism
Free Stadium in all Cities. +100% Pressure in all nearby Cities without your majority Religion.

Administration of Savagery
Followers of your religion in Foreign Cities generate 1 Religious Unrest in that City. 1 Additional Spy, and Spies in Enemy cities are much more likely to trigger rebellion.

One World, One Faith
Tourism Modifier for shared Religion increased by 34%. Missionaries do not suffer Attrition in foreign territory, and are 100% more powerful. 5 Missionaries appear at your Capital.

State Religion
A Free Great Prophet is Born. Holy Sites and Landmarks gain +4, and claim adjacent tiles.

Tier 3:
Millenarianism
A Great Prophet is born and a Permanent Golden Age Begins (crank the golden age length modifier to something ridiculous).

Armageddon
+100% Military Supply from Population and a Free Military Unit appears in every city every 10 turns. War is declared on every Civilization not following your ideology. Peace is Disabled.

The Will of God
All Citizens in your Empire are instantly converted to your Faith (one time, can convert them back after). 1 for every follower of your religion in Foreign Cities.

I recognize this is a major undertaking, but I think that an entirely new ideology would deserve to have some rather nice new toys. Maybe some people who can edit the DLL could help you implement more ambitious changes. For my part, I would be happy to contribute art assets and lua code, or help with research and pedia entries.

You're thinking about adding 2 ideologies? Will the last one be some sort of dystopic late-stage capitalism / Corporate Statism?

Thanks for the support! I will definitely need all the help I can get! Regarding what changes we'll have, it does depend on a couple of things.

My current plan is 2 ideologies but we'll see how that goes. The Theology one will need work as I'm still not happy with it. However, I'm waiting for some feedback regarding the feel and if it's heading in the right direction.

I also made a list in my first post about potential ideas that can be implemented which are somewhat covered in existing ideologies or isn't in use at all. These exist in the game (vanilla or otherwise) but I feel that they can add some interesting dynamics if done properly. As for the focus, we'll see what happens. It's highly possible that some tenets are modded, tested and moved around to where they fit. I don't think I want to be too tied up on what specific ideologies we are going for. If certain tenets do fit a certain criteria, we can then fill in the rest with more ambitious changes to complete those ideologies.

IMO I don't think you'll be able to differentiate monarchy from Theocracy/Autocracy, as those are both strongly authoritarian, centralized ideologies. I also notice that your name choices have a lot of overlap with existing Tradition/Fealty policies.

I would suggest you take a look at corporate statism as an option instead. I think you'll find it's fertile ground for lampooning a lot of dystopic literature, libertarian and utilitarian philosophy, and weird realities in our current political systems where money enters politics, etc.

You could really blow the top off corporations as a tier 3 policy as well.
