Well, about that Modern Era, I'd like to see slightly more features in it. Leoreth, have you any plans of reworking it? The only 'unique' features there at the moment are stronger nukes and corporations, while in other eras you have civ spawns, coded barbarian attacks, colonizer or conqueror events, new religions...
 
Not so far, what would you do there? Also it's the era where any changes are least likely to be seen, since the game is often over before it's reached.
 
Well, I like trying to wipe off every civ on the map, which takes some time :p Especially because I try to make the other civilizations kill each other, by giving away nuclear weapons.
Space also takes until +-1960 AD approximately. And if you play as the Prussians or Americans (non-UHV) most of your game is going to be in the modern era.
 
Small question about 'Southern Asia' for the Thai UHV: what is it exactly ? Does it include Indonesia/Philippines/Southern China/India?

Now that regions are displayed: it roughly equates to India, Deccan, Indochina and Indonesia.
 
With the Trading Company events, how do you think that can be achieved?
By defeating them ;) I admit it's going to be hard if England conquers all of India. The goal was implemented before the conquerors existed, but with them in mind, so I guess it's worth being tested again.

It's also the only way to play one city challenge :)
Have you tried to edit it into the scenario files as a game option?
 
Or ask :)

Open the scenario file with a text editor and add
Code:
Option=GAMEOPTION_ONE_CITY_CHALLENGE
somewhere between "BeginGame" and "EndGame".

Thank you :)
And what does exactly count as 'Foreign powers'? Everyone? Or only the Eurocivs? And do the independents count?
 
Independents are okay, as well as civs that belong there (i.e. India, Mughals, Indonesia and Khmer). Usually that means you have to throw the Eurocivs out, but if there's e.g. China in Indochina, you have to conquer these cities, too.

Playing as Ayutthaya I must say they are rather awesome. You get a useless UB (a solitary happiness given with Buddhist state religion doesn't do much when you have no happy shortage and you will ditch state religion for UHG1), and an almost useless UU (you can capture Pagan with it and that's it, but you could just load pikes on a galley). Did I mention that Secularism (via Shwedagon Pagoda) replaces the UP (except better)?

Alright, so with a fantastic civ with no UB, UU or UP what's the situation?
UHV1) get 8 OB's by 1650
UHV2) Make Ayutthaya the biggest city
UHV3) South Asia for South Asians

How to achieve
UHV1) rush optics and caravels to met Occidentals
UHV2) get enough culture for full BFC and trade for a couple resources (I admit I was very lucky getting the artist event yielding 450:culture: 2 turns in)
UHV3) *mumble mumble*

So I was minding my own business and then I saw Vicky using Redcoats on Mughals in 1675, being a diplomatic type I decided to say nothing. Later in 1802 a Merchant of mine was conducting business in London enriching the kingdom, he decided to take a stroll and saw bright rows of freshly polished Artillery glistening in the crappy English weather, he also visited the Thames and saw the amazing levees there. In 1823 when the Republic of Thailand invented her own steam engines the President naturally wanted some levees to reclaim more land for the capital, sadly he was informed by his cartographers that the Chao Phraya River running through Bangkok couldn't feature levees due to the River of Kings not being on the map... In 1832 when another Merchant arrived in London he saw rows of Infantry in crisp khaki uniforms drilling away in the still terrible English weather, so much for catching up and driving out the Occidentals... In 1848 a Merchant attended the opening of Wembley Stadium which hosted this strange Occidental sport called "Football", in 1850 this same merchant visited London for business a viewed these things called "manufactories" which produced many good (powered by these rocks called coal), the Electrification of the streets impressed him greatly. In 1852 the President in his goal of helping Asia gave a massive transfer of technology to Ming China in exchange for some coal rights for his new locomotives.


Not sure why I lost though (congresses assigned the European cities back to natives).

Do you have a save?

Also, any ideas on how to make the UU or UB more useful?

UB: An extra +% Culture bonus. Suggest anything between +10% and +20%, like the Chinese Pavillion UB from BTS. Now that Culture is no longer an abomination, such a UB would actually help a late-spawning civ such as the Thai a lot.

UU: What is a Chang Suek? Anyway, you can make them much more effective in South Asia by allowing them to move through Jungles. Also, perhaps they could replace Cuirassiers and/or upgrade into Cavalry (like the Mongol Keshik).

They can move through jungles. And yes, that's quite a boon in Thailand.
 
Culture bonus sounds good. Chang Suek is the Thai word for "war elephant", simply, because Naresuan's war elephants were what came closest to a unique unit in Thai military.
