[LP] Leader Pass Pack 4: Rulers of the Sahara (Feb. 2023) - Patch Notes Discussion

[Nikolai II]

It will not be @Andrew Johnson [FXS] fixing things but he will know who they are

He would, I am sure. Also probably other Firaxians, both registered and not, taking notes. CFC is pretty big and special in the Civ world, after all. Since Apolyton basically died as a competitor, CFC is the premier civ site. And who knows, perhaps their testers are active in reading and reporting too.

 

[Urlance Woolsbane]

Not necessarily. They had to introduce a new type of modifier effect to implement Ramses: EFFECT_GRANT_CITY_YIELD_PERCENT_BUILDING_CREATED_COST.

Oh, that's interesting! I wonder why they didn't do that with the earlier Leader Packs; they could have kept Julius Caesar's original ability that way

He does the text no? He can fix it just by changing
"It costs 20% less gold to Recruit Great People and the Market gains 2 Great Writing slots."
to
"It costs 20% less gold to Recruit Great People and Markets built by Mali gain 2 Great Writing slots."

We may never know who those heroic testers are, except by reading the credits at the end of the game. Which I did.

That's some dedication.

In my current Sundiata game. . . .

I've also got Jesuit Education and am a tech or two away from unlocking Archeologists so after that I'll be drowning in science and tourism! In addition to the filthy, filth lucre!

 

[DeutschDachs]

Well got into my first game as Ramses and my capital starts 2 tiles away from Paititi. Which honestly just feels like a bit much but in a very fun way lol

 

[Galvatron]

I don't like sand.

 

[Starina]

For Ana, I have already collected all the relics. We'll have to collect all the literature for Keita. Challenge accepted

 

[InsidiousMage]

Enough about Civ7! There is still some greatness left in Civ6 yet!

Sundiata + Mali + Theocracy + Democracy

When your rock band is so awesome it makes people reconsider their faith.

I started a Sundiata game, and naturally my closest neighbor is Dom Pedro the Jealous Boyfriend, and he is concerned about all the Great People I'm luring to Mali.

Oh, Kristina is here too. This is going to be fun.

 

[SammyKhalifa]

I fired up a Rameses game. Lady of Reeds and Marshes feels better than Monument to the Gods if you have the terrain to pull it off. I don't have deserts but lots of swamps.

 

[Thormodr]

Sundiata is very fun. Just won a culture victory with him. Using the scads of gold generated to buy up many Great Writers is *chefs kiss*.

I found it easier to buy the great works off the AI and use my gold to buy great people that there wasn't a lot of competition for, like admirals and engineers, in the early game and then save up money to snipe some key great people in the late game.

 

[SammyKhalifa]

So far I'm liking NeoCleo a lot more than Ramseses. I've gotten beaten to three wonders coming in to the end of the second age.

 

[Hellenism Salesman]

Great Works of Writing can be self-help books if you try hard enough

That'd certainly be a unique interpretation of Romeo and Juliet or the Tell-Tale Heart.

That is probably better and more efficient but I dislike buying great works off the AI so I never do that.

"Don't take teenage romance so seriously that it ends with twelve people dead" is sage advice to live by.

NeoCleo

oh this is a fantastic name for her, wish i came up with that
speaking of which, i just earlier today booted up my first game as her (after successfully troubleshooting some pretty bad crashing) and i got two large floodplains clusters and a whole half-continent island all to myself and 3 city states, and the floodplains cluster in my capital has two rivers, one with 3 floodplains tiles and a fantastic great bath spot, and the other with 10 floodplains tiles and 2 floods under its belt at turn 35ish. absolutely fantastic start, so much more fun than... "RetroCleo"?
