UPDATE 13/10/15:

- Added the Abbasids under Harun al-Rashid

- Added the Holy Roman Empire under Frederick II

 

[Uighur_Caesar]

I'd like to see some of those designs without civs.

Feedback:

Abassids- the UA is nice, but I dont like it because it doesn't scale and useless in most cases because you only really produce great people in 3 cities or so throughout the game.
UB is nice. in fact, I like it, because it makes trade routes more useful without requiring you to spend huge amounts of production. The UU is... Nice, but the effect seems rather generic.
Overall, the only problem that I see with this design is that you need a lot of food to actually make all of these slots useful, and food is not something that common for desert civs.

 

[GPuzzle]

UPDATE 15/10/15

- Added Civ-less Design #1.

 

[Natan35]

Civ less? Yeah right...
Also, the UB's effects is kinda op... If you are during a golden age, a policy might give you 100+ GG points.
(You saw what I did there )

 

[GPuzzle]

Based, not equal to. Probably has a maximum.

I just really liked that design but I can't fit it anywhere.

 

[Natan35]

Probably something colonial. Perhaps a Spanish colony blob civ.

 

[GPuzzle]

UPDATE 18/10/15

- Added Unifinished Civless Civ #1.

 

[Uighur_Caesar]

I think if you were to modify that new design enough, you could get a design for Mecca/Hejaz. I once thought about a Mecca/Hejaz design that would have had a Tourism boost for the Holy City and a Missionary replacement, which is why this design reminds me of it.

 

[Hoop Thrower]

Hm... The Unfinished Civless Civ sounds like it'd fit for Jerusalem, given all the tourism bonus for faith and wonders...

The Second one doesn't sound to me like something out of a colony, just a very defense oriented civ. Could be Colonial Mexico alright, but I'd also could see it as a Wari civ, something West African, Benin would fit nicely given their pechant for building walls and fortressses everywhere and their "advanced artistic culture". Heck, the Great General replacement could be Obas.

 

[Natan35]

Yeah, with the exception of the unique blood resource...

 

[GPuzzle]

Unique blood resource? What?

 

[Natan35]

You know, the blood that got spilled on Jerusalem's streets from whatever reason for some days now... But that's not the point. Its a nice design... Which I think could fit the Vatican quite well. How about a pope UU, that could perform unique concert tours that also provide faith and religious pressure on all of the other civ's cities?

UPDATE 18/10/15 #2

- Added Unifinished Civless Civ #2.

Turns out, showers are quite nice for your thoughts.

 

[Hoop Thrower]

They certainly are.

First thing that springs to mind with that new design is Samori Toure's Wassolou Empire.

 

[Howard Tafty]

I have a design pretty similar to it actually, I think it was an Italian Colonial civ I believe. However it seems odd that you decided to take a secondary focuses instead of just going pure domination considering the fact that this sort of civ is generally going to be used for long military marches which are what most domination matches are about. Although it depends on the game really.

The secondary focus isn't so much as a secondary focus as it is "I want you to go on war, and as a result I'm going to make your job of going to war easier so you don't need to worry as much about your cities." People who go to war generally build Barracks in most cities, although I was considering changing it to a Monument replacement and diminishing the Happiness to only +1 and increasing it to +3 Culture.

Update 19/10/15

- Added the Rebel Alliance

GPuzzle doing a fictional Civ? What is this madness?

 

[Natan35]

Your waif(u) is changing you...
