I am very curious what are your experiences/opinions about Social Policies and Ideologies in general and in combination with certain civilizations. At the current state of the mod, SPs and Ideologies seem to be quite balanced at the moment.
I want to start with an obvious example:
1. Tradition
2. Artistry
3. Rationalism
I: Freedom
Civ:Korea
Korea is Science focuesed and has a great synergy with Great People Generation. But Korea can be played in different ways.
Another combination which is coming to my mind is:
Germany -> Aiming for Diplomatic/Domination Victory:
1. Progress
2. Statecraft
3. Industry
I: Autocracy
Civ: Germany
Germany is mainly focused on CS relationships and wants to be played savly in the early stages of the game. I am still unsure how good Germany is on Authority. But Progress is pushing for a strong infrastructure which helps greatly later on in the game for Diplomacy and Dominations and Industry has a general good synergy with Germany since their UB is buffed with it (and through +2 trade routes from Statecraft).
Autocracy is offering Germany a possibilty to use their UU window aggressivly or to help them win the Diplomatic Victory. Or even the Culture Victory if you want to use Germany's CS boni for CV or SV. But at the same time, German can work very well with Freedom, too.
That are two example what I am curious about. What are your combinations? Your favorite ones? What are those, which are making it nearly too easy for you? What are your achievements with it depending AI difficulty? What could be alternatives?
