Dawn of Civilization - an RFC modmod by Leoreth

What do you think about the following new Indian UP: can choose Great People type on birth?

Only types with at least one point in the pool would be available. The AI would choose based on prevalent type in the pool, possibly modified by its LH preferences for flavor types.

What's the historical basis of the UP? And what's wrong with the old one?

In a similar vein, why did you change Poland's UP so many times?

What's the historical basis for the current one? I think it's better for India to derive health from a UB.

The idea behind the change is that a caste system would give you more control over what occupations people pursue (= GP types).

In a similar vein, why did you change Poland's UP so many times?

My ultimate goal is to have one UP for each Polish Republic.

That seems like a very strong UP. I like the other one more, because it allows for more growth, but this one also seems cool. Then again, since I'm playtesting nonstop for Magic tournaments, I won't have much time to compare them.

 

[Panopticon]

So, this would let me run 1E 2M 2S 2P to get all Great Engineers, yes? It seems to mean faster early GP in practice.

 

[Leoreth]

It's probably really quite powerful.

I've also been considering it as a late wonder effect so that's maybe a better place.

 

[Fresol]

Powerful as it may seem, but take into account India's base(140) and modifier(0), and UHV requirement(2 Great Prophets), I don't think it's much better than some S/Ls.

 

[Leoreth]

Actually India has a -1 modifier that is hidden outside the usual modifier list.

 

[Fresol]

Actually India has a -1 modifier that is hidden outside the usual modifier list.

Yeah that's wierd, they have a +1 somewhere else?

 

[Leoreth]

Sorry, I don't understand that question.

 

[CaterpillarKing]

He's asking if they have a hidden +1 modifier elsewhere I believe.

 

[Fresol]

Yeah because it's not really a -1 but a 0, despite what the code says. So there's got be a +1 modifier somewhere, or why is it -1 at all?

that's such a cool idea I may have to steal it.

 

[Leoreth]

Of course

 

[baseballpie]

How do you enable camera flying (I think that's what it's called) in DoC?

 

[CaterpillarKing]

Alt-f, if that isn't it then it is ctrl-f

The Mughal Siege Elephant can't enter Jungle. I can understand if siege units shouldn't be able to navigate jungle, but it feels strange an elephant based unit can't.

 

[VGL]

Elephant is a big animal so it can't be in a jungle.

 

[ales_]

Other elephants can.

 

[citis]

Siege elephants should be able to pass through jungles. There is a jungle strip in India, Mughlas should be able to bring their siege elephants from North to South.

 

[VGL]

Other elephants can.

So,a big animal that is very big and tall can enter a jungle
