I think this is a pretty simple civ on how to use it (obviously I'd like to do as man wars as possible to achieve a diplo victory, or if I'm pretty duper super good with my soldiers I could win by dom), but extremely effective

Cool, I want to try this civ!

 

[KlHannibal2]

How exactly does the impressment ability on the ship work? At the moment you do the tribute, do you need to have the ship in the production queue? Will it get added to the queue by tributing?
What happens if the ship's tech is not discovered yet and or the ship has gone obsolete? I guess nothing, or can you save up the yields from the tribute before you get the ship's tech?

Hey Dan, any chance this mod will come online soon?

 

[pineappledan]

There’s some dll issues that need to be resolved re: the peace deal code. It could be a while

In hope that this will be finished at some point, some thoughts:

I like how the civ is intended to be played: fight and win many wars, get vassals. Give pledge of protection to all possible city states to get influence, scienece and unit cap.

Some possible pifalls I see on deity: you have basically no long term combat bonus. You have to make use of your early UUs and extra production to start your sbowball.

I love the free unit production based on supply cap. This should scale with game speed. I wonder if it is strong enough. In my estimates it will hardly result in more than 10% free production for military units. Maybe add some bonus unit cap: it could be +1 on the UB and /or +1 on military training buildings.

I also like the UNW with focus on pledge of protect. The unit cap and science it gives is exactly what you need for this play style. But keeping pledges online is very hard on deity. Your early snowball has to work and you always need keep your army maxed. If you fall behind so you can no longer pledge, you could get far over your unit cap and be crippled or forced to disband units. And that in turn makes pleding impossible.
What do you think about making the science scaling with era? Otherwise it would become irrelevent quickly.

on standard it's a potential 32 per turn once you have met all the CS, which is pretty considerable. It does drop off as the game progresses, but the other DoP ability of freezing decay gets stronger, so I think it's okay.

This mod is being held up by a semi-functional lua hook. I've submitted a ticket for it to be beefed up, but we'll see what happens.

There is bonus unit cap on the UNW

Well, if it comes online, I will give it a try. Thanks!
