Hey Vokarya, would you mind listing off the last part of the Modern Era techs? I enjoy reading them and looking at what you did.
Geez, you really moved a "few" techs back, it seem like it is "finally" coming together like (in lack of a better term) RL. I personally would like to Thank Youand everyone for helping out on this "much needed" era, now the struggle begins.

The next step (not yet, I have a lot of other things to do first) would be for me to go back and find all of MrAzure's Galactic Era ideas and turn them into a reasonable number of techs. He has a lot of gems in his stuff which I think can be salvaged.
@Vokarya
Well in game terms Asteroids are Terrain Features just like Forests or Jungles. So I would say that one could "Chop" an Asteroid and get a similar bonus to the nearest "city". Note that we could have Space Outposts (Think Deep Space 9) to act like cities in space in the solar system map. And then on the Galactic map it would go to the nearest star system like in Final Frontier.
In fact it might be cool to do the same for Nebula gas and collect the gas.
I know we are doing this tech work now but I wanna ask is there any plans for adding something at Pictographs?
More info pls, what do you exactly mean? Buildings/units/cost/food, what??
There will be buildings there but not yet. I was trying to figure out a "trail sign" promotion or something since these Pictographs have been used to point to water and provide other important guides. If we get the limit on movement from your border working this would be a tech that increases your range.
BTW I think that the tech Scriptures could be named Moral Code allowing Scriptures to become a building associated with the Holy Shrine and maybe an effect on crime ie it really starts to make sense at this point.
That would be a good idea. Perhaps a culture boost to Monuments too or is it OP that way?
As for the rename of Scriptures it sounds good for me.
IIRC Scriptures was designed to capture the idea that many religions have a holy book, and not to signify the actual physical holy texts of a religion.
While we're on religion prereqs, why Resurrection for Judaism? Of course I could be missing something, but I would appreciate if you'd enlighten me if that's the case.
If it needs another prereq, you could have one called Messianism - which Christianity, Islam (the Mahdi), Buddhism (the Maitreya) and Asatru (Vali) also kind of have.
Another thing that just came up for me re techs. In the fine print under Monarchy, (I'm assuming I haven't looked) there's some fine print saying "Can Build Treasury". It's hardly going to stand out, and you might put off teching it in favour of more "sexed-up" techs with bells and whistles (especially as when you do the maths on the two civics it enables, you don't always come out ahead). Well, what I didn't know is that the Treasury (National Wonder) is worth about 65per turn!
I dare say that's one big difference between the first time you play C2C, and every other time...![]()
