DAT MANSA MUSA. That is spectacular. I really like the flavor of the Trade Caravans.
Here's a pretty good pirate mod:Pirates!
UA - Scourge of the Seas - May not train settlers; may not annex or puppet happy cities (acquired by conquest). Penalties from unhappiness is increased twofold; unit maintenance is increased twofold. Acquired cities automatically become Haunts* (except for the capital, which retains it's ability to choose production). May buy off allied city-states to turn them into Haunts*. Naval units receive the unique Piracy** promotion. Gain increased gold from pillaging and plundering (x2-4, applies to pillaging tiles, gold from killing units, and from plundering trade routes and cities etc. etc.).
UI - Rum Distillery - Plundered from the Buccaneers mod.
UU - Corsair - Replacement for the Privateer. The corsair also has a ranged attack (25 strength), has +1 movement, and may move after attacking. Does not start with coastal raider.
*Haunts - haunts are puppeted cities with reduced production (-50%), but allow you to purchase. Pirate haunt's borders are not visible on the map to other players unless directly next to them, and the same goes for the city itself (may not be spied upon). Haunts automatically convert barbarians venturing inside their borders, and plunders any non-friendly trade routes passing within two tiles of their borders (does not count as an act of war, signals that barbarians took it to other players).
**Piracy - Prize ships, receive gold from killing units equal to their combat strength, may enter borders without open borders. (stacks with Honor.).
Feedback/thoughts?
Ptolemaic Egypt:
UA: Centre of Hellenism: +4 Culture from World Wonders. +1 Great Writer points in the Capital for every city with a Lighthouse.
UB: Maktabat: Library replacement. +2 Production. Has 2 Great Work of Writing slots that when filled increase Great People generation in that city by 10% each. Has increased mantainance.
UU: Polyreme: Trireme replacement. Stronger, and may rebase to other ports.
Testing the waters for something that only Anno Domini has really made and it's probably right next on my list of things to do: Ptolemaic Egypt.
What's nabby?I don't understand what does that UA has to do with nabby.
Since you all looove doing civ splits over here , if anyone's familiar enough with Danish and Scandinavian history, I'd love to see some Denmark splits.
Harald I Bluetooth, Magrethe I (Kalmar Union), Christian IV (Denmark-Norway) are covered I guess. And GE and TCM is doing a Cnut/Canute II the Great (North Sea Empire) I think.
But either of the following could possibly be interesting:
- Valdemar I the Great
- Valdemar II the Victorious
- Valdemar IV Atterdag
- Christian II the Tyrant, or the Restless
- Frederick II
I don't know if all of them are different enough from one another to actually come up with different unique components, but some of them should be.
