Light In The East: Civs Of The Orient(And Beyond)

[Hoop Thrower]

Don't forget the most important Inca led by Cuzco!

Also, excellent, been years waiting for this civ.

 

[dilophosaur]

Madagascar is led by King Julian the Glorious.

 

[COF]

Yay! Sassanids! Who's the leader, and wants up with Persia?(no, not this one, the other one)

Nothing about that one, yet.

If I was awake at 4 in the morning, I would have guessed the Madagascar colab was with CL since they just released a Pridelands civ.

I did not know about Madagascar being a collaboration until Regalman said it in this thread. :V
He never tells me anything.

Duh, how could I miss that easy one? I foolishly went with Alex because he's "king of the jungle."

 

[GPuzzle]

I'm expecting a King Triton-led Atlantica soon.

Guys, I think we're onto something here.

Your brain was washed by Maurice and/or you were hypnotized by Julian's bottom dance. Move it! Move it!

Madagascar(Alex)
UA: Move it

UU: Penguin Commando
Replaces marines. Unlocked earlier, at refrigeration. Ignores terrain costs on hill, snow and tundra tiles, and ignores enemy zone of control, in addition to the mariner's abilities.


But I assume your Madagascar has nothing to do with the movie.

Our Madagascar revolves around an insane and crazy queen who gave malaria to her soldiers. Happy stuff

 

[janboruta]

Madagascar should be all about this guy though. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurice,_Count_de_Benyovszky

That's what i said as well, it's a damn shame tbh

>madagascar

Hey now! She didn't give malaria to her own soldiers. She just insisted that her enemies take in the sights of the lovely mosquito-infested swamps of coastal Madagascar before being exiled. It would be a shame to leave Madagascar without seeing all it has to offer.

 

[dilophosaur]

Benyovsky can be nice alternative to CL Madagascar.

You guys rang?

 

[SnowyNix]

JFD for PM.

 

[dilophosaur]

Ring ding ding ding ding... what does the fox say?

 

[regalman]

Does anyone have ideas on what they would like Madagascar's UA to be based on?

Also if anyone could find music themes for them, that would be awesome!

 

[Hoop Thrower]

I've read loads of times ideas like "Enemy units get attrition damage while inside Jungles in Madagascar territory", though I'd like to downplay Ranavalona's supposedly terrible reign, I think that'd be a nice feature.

Anti-westernization and conservation of traditional values over foreign influence would be something I'd like to see, an isolationist civ in a sense.

Also...

Link to video.

 

[Alganon]

Something related to coffee or sugarcane and plantations as first part of the trait and something about closed borders or a bonus to stop missionaries in your territory

 

[regalman]

Thanks for the music Hoopthrower! The war theme is left now.

Since I'd like North Korea to be our primary anti-tourism civ, Reedstilt came up with some brilliant ideas that include a UU that when garrisoned, prevents the city from being converted to a foreign religion. A part of the UA that he came up with as well: "If a City* following your Religion is captured, it spawns one Melee Unit (Spear-Units, pre-Gunpowder; Gun-Units after) under your control for every 4 followers in the city." This is also supposed to work when you capture a city, so it's offensive and defensive as well. The units are spawned near your capital

Would this work for wars you weren't involved in - say I spread my religion to two neighbours, paid them to duke it out - would I still gain units from cities that are gained and lost?

If so that's pretty cool, the idea in general is wonderful - didn't Ranavalona bring about an effective economic/industrial revolution, any plans to represent this?
