This is just a brainstorming thread, to gather my ideas, feel free to poast with comments/hints
Tiles:
Resources:
Resources are gone. Or better, each can be built anywhere without requiring the basic resource to be avaiable on the map.
Strategic resources are: hardwood, leather, iron, horses
Luxury resources: TBA, they will be grouped in science, happyness and culture resources
Golden ages:
Removed to rebalance luxury improvemets and decease the importance of happy faces
Tile improvements:
4 techs stages for each:
S: special, +1 f/h/g (as appropriate) if next to a river
r: strategic resource
f: happy face
c: culture
i: science
X/Y: quantity to be determined, hardwood and iron will give about 2x the resources leather and horses do.
Great people:
Birth rate increased
Added great botanist
Move speed 4
Can only be used for special tile improvements:
Engineer: 3h 1gr point, goes to 4h 1ge point with tech
Merchant: 3g 1gm point, goes to 4g 1gm point with tech
Botanist: 3f 1gb point, goes to 4f 1gb point with tech
Artist: 3culture 1ga point, goes to 4culture 1ga point with tech
Jester: 3happyness 1gj point, goes to 4happyness 1gj point with tech
Scientist: 3science 1gs point, goes to 4science 1gs point with tech
General: Def bonus, 1gg point, protect tiles from razing with tech
Units:
Each military unit requires strategic resources
The following units are avaiable (each represents a unit 'line' not a single unit)
Promotions:
4 base promotions lines avaiable to every unit:
Morale I: +10% - Morale II: +10%
Drill I: +15% on rought terrain - Drill II: +15% on rought terrain
Shock I: +15% on open terrain - Shock II: +15% on open terrain
Medic I: +1 healing - Medic II +1 healing in adjacent tiles
Advanced promotions avaiable with one base line completed
Garrison: +15% when defending, melee only
Charge: +15% when attacking, melee only
sharpshooters: +1 range, ranged only
Fast: +1 movement, mounted only
Siege: +15% vs citys and fortified units, any but mounted
Blitz: 2 attacks/turn, any
Leadership: +10% to adjacent units, any
XPs:
Attacking in melee: 5
Defending in melee: 4
Attacking at range: 3
Defending at range: 2
Terrain bonuses:
Hill: +15%
Forest: +15%
Open: -10%
Fort/Citadel: +20%
Flanking: +10%
Missing resources: -5% per missing resource
Buildings:
Wonders:
Wip
Specialists:
Specialist will baseline consume only 1 food. Each will give +3 something (see great people for types) +1 gpp, with techs increasing it to +4/+1
Conversion rates:
The aim for the mod is to have roughly 1h = 1g = 1f = 1 happy = 1 culture
Production => science will start with 30% efficiency, with a wonder and a policy each increasing it by 15%
Production => gold will start with 30% efficiency, with a wonder and a policy each increasing it by 15%
gold => civillian production will start with 20% efficiency, with a wonder and a policy each increasing it by 10%
gold => military production will start with 20% (60% for upgrades) efficiency, with a wonder and a policy each increasing it by 10% (30% for upgrades). yes this means that wth everything in places upgrading a unit will cost less gold than the hammer difference.
Culture:
Citys will produce culture based on pop, like science. Policies cost and cost increase for number of citys will be adjusted to reflect this.
