I was reading "Out of the Darkness" from Harry Turtledove, and there was an idea that seemed to suit AV; involving genocide of a race in order to fight a war. semms very AV to me.
following the AV theme, if you researched INFERNAL PACT or some other tech, AV civs can build a ritual (about 200 , and possibly builds faster with Evil mana like Death or Entropy) which creates a building in the city Sacrifical Circle or whatever and grants all units in the city a spell; Sacrifical Ritual which razes the city and gives you 100 per pop that was in the city as well as, possibly granting 1 AC per pop.
Thematically when I'm RPing Sheaim I see razing cities as a waste; why just kill them? Why not sacrifice the whole population to Agares or some other demon in exchange for power? You can commit mass genocide of an inferior race (like the tree-hugging Lijos or the good-two-shoes Elohim) to help your civ and help turn Erebus into Hell. (muhahaha)
If the AI can't use this properly (they can't use Pax Diablois properly, I can see them razing every one of their own cities for some beakers..) it can just be made human-only, I like more MOAR, as long as the AI can play, it's fine. (now about navies... that's a different thread)
So any feedback?
