Mods for stronger diety?

[Farmac]

Hello! I am starting to get bored of my diety games, they are way too easy for me and I am not having fun.

Is there any mods which make the AI smarter and can keep up for civ six gathering storm?

Smoother Difficulty adds extra bonuses per era plus an extra difficulty, Omniscient, which sould be harder to beat than Deity.

Been trying three together. 'Real Strategy', 'Adjust Progress To Difficulty' and 'FortifAI'

Makes it a bit more challenging. FortifAI works great for making domination much more difficult

Play with weaker civs, never re-roll. Play harder maps. Do challenges. Occ, no settler for starters. Idk mabey its just time for a break

Try deity.

If you want tu punish yourself you can try FortifAI with only "Domination Victory" enabled

I find people on these forums saying deity is too easy. Then I see the same people admitting to re-rolling when getting a non-optimal starting location, trade abusing the AI, pillaging en masse and changing various settings to their advantage prior to starting the game. Try doing all standard settings and not abusing trade or pillage. Then deity can be challenging at least for the first part of the game.

Personally I think the biggest problem of deity is how the AI turns from wolf to lamb the farther in the game you progress.

Jam's Difficulty Mod is another option. It ramps up difficulty as the game progresses, like Smoother Difficulty.

And yes, no reloading. The AI doesn't get to reload. Reloading is a massive advantage for the human player.

Can someone post a link to FortifAI? I've been meaning to check it out.

Hello Bradypus!
I have never abused AI trade or reloaded a save or restarted a game for a better start. I play this game since years and I am just really good at it. Besides AI is so bad at combat, really you don't need to be that good to destroy them!




Can someone link me these mods please? I am not aware on how to find them as I am new to these forums! thank you!!

There would be no need for this, if they just improved the basic default level, then moved it out from there.

Farmac is right, if you have been playing Civ long enough the AI is so predictable it isn't hard if you use military units. The AI combat is just so bad.

Here is a good start:

I'm not sure the word for that kind of punishment is "difficulty" per se' ^_^.

I remember a Civ 4 map that was generated and the best players had all worked together to beat it eventually. It was something crazy where you started up north on a continent vs the Zulus or something to the south and if you some how managed to get your continent under control it turns out the Russians were on another continent and massive by the time you finally got your land under control.

That was a pretty epic challenge that required like a while to finally win with the best on the forum all working together.

Civ 4 BTS is the best mod to cure your ails...

 

[Farmac]

Thank you for linking me the mod! i will surely give a try!

Sadly we have to use such mods that give the AI just big bonuses and no actual intelegeance. These mods somehow also makes the game less fun because you are not on a fair level. Maybe the best option for me is starting playing online multiplayer. But that would also somehow suck since its a race for Arms by everyone and people casually leaving or playing on quick speed which doesnt let you enjoy the normal pace of the game. I guess this proble

AI quality was better in BTS, but the sheer bonuses of Warlords is probably harder.
