Making graphs out of Civilizations and Leaders links

[Evolena]

This week, we welcome 2 brand new additions: Majahapit Majapahit and Charlemagne!

I've also put the Graph and media inside tabs for Civs and Leaders notes, and added a Short tab for Civs. One benefit is the note looks like smaller while all media are at the top, one another is the media are only loaded when the tab is accessed (but also each time the tab is opened )

that graph just made me realize....if Mexico gets a cavalry UU and cultural focus (IMHO very likely), a cultural domination run with Charlemagne Rome-Spain-Mexico seems interesting.

 

[Evolena]

I hope these graphs may help playthrough ideas to pop
Unfortunately, I don't think I will be able to transform a lot of "some link" into unlocks or "historical choices" before release... I know what I will spend my first hours on!

That would be actually so sick. Honestly just happy that Mexico is being implemented in a mainline Civ game, but it would be even cooler if they were meta.

This week we have Hawai'i and Amina, whose First Look also shows Trung Trac leading Majahapit Majapahit (so their graph 4 post earlier is a little more populated now!).

I also like how the view of all links for all civs and leaders not on the world map (Default view) is starting to show continents (Europe top right, Africa bottom right, Middle East / Central Asia at the center, India top left, South-East Asia on the left - Americas and China are still isolated for now):

(Disclosure: it may not look like that if you go see it yourself, as the positioning is not pre-calculated.)

This week, we've got Songhai as the last one of the Exploration Civs (map below), and a whole new Leader, Ibn Battuta (who I've put into the water, like the others - not because his going way outside of his frame is annoying me).

Hawaii is looking real lonely out there...

Mayans and Hawaii really need more connections and leaders, they are looking pretty isolated.

*checks the globe* Well that certainly tracks for one of those two groups. Both if my globe showed ancient jungles (which, sadly, it does not).

 

[Evolena]

Remember this map is only for the Exploration Civs, so of course they are connected to no other Civ. There is another map with all of them, but it only displays confirmed unlock links. And as I only track confirmed and somewhat hinted links (and there has not been many for the american continent), no prediction or assumptions, on all graphs the links are still quite limited.

 

[Evolena]

This week, we've only had Mexico, our first Modern Civ. However America has been confirmed (not that there were a lot of doubts about that one).

 

[Evolena]

This week, we've got not only America, Benjamin Franklin and the newly revealed Harriet Tubman (who unlocks America), but from the Modern Age stream also confirmation of Qing and Siam, a whole lot of new potential uncategorized links, and some new Modern Age Independant Powers.

I've added a graph showing the links between Civs and Leaders inside their descriptions. The result is quite a chain from Isabella to Confucius and Trung Trac:

the newly revealed Harriet Butman

I think that might be a very different game

 

[Evolena]

Oups !

New Year, new leader reveals and civ game guides... the Civ 7 year starts with the Qing dynasty for China, the French Empire, and Lafayette.

I've revamped the Starting Bias overview (accessible through the Table of Contents), let me know what you think of it!

This whole system of predefined meta-civs (consisting of three Civilizations) will start to work after the second expansion I am afraid

Let's see what will be all the actual links at release, first

 

[Evolena]

This week has seen the release of the game guides for Catherine the Great, Russia and Siam.
And a whole bunch of info from previews, that I'm still gathering. For now, We've got the full roster revealed, and I've got most of which Civ(s) each Leader unlocks (but not all Civ to Civ unlocks, nor gameplay unlocks yet):

 

[Evolena]

I'm slowly watching a lot of previews, picking unlocks and recommended choices while I'm it (more than the other way).
I've adjusted the gameplay unlocks to reflet that each is its own (so there can be 2 for one civ).
The recommended choices (be it Strategic, Geographic, or others I've not yet encountered) start to fill out nicely (mainly for the Old World though, as a lot of previews feature the same leaders or civs):

 

[Evolena]

So, for this week we've had José Rizal and Buganda.
And still a bunch of links from preview videos, especially for leaders who aren't european or westerner!
As a comparison from last post, the "recommended choices" are now almost all connected (featuring 20 civs and 16 leaders, so roughly 2/3 and 4/5 resp.).

Ah, I almost forgot... I've also added an Info tab to Civs and Leaders notes (and Attributes tags):
