Terrible Ideas

[Alexander's Hetaroi]

• Rome
• Hellenistic Greece

I feel like those could be lumped together into a singular Greco-Roman civ if you actually want to make it sound terrible.

Alt history Imperial Japan that somehow conquered all of China and Mongolia

Or alt history Mongolia that conquered Japan.

 

[Caesar of Bread]

Terrible Idea #12: Civ VII will feature a continental quota.

As in 2 Civs per continent.

Terrible idea #14: Oops! All blobs!

• Rome
• Hellenistic Greece
• "Vikings"
• Celts
• "Iberia"
• "Anglo-Colonial"
• Soviet Union
• European Union
• "Native Americans"
• Mesoamericans
• Persia
• Arabia
• "Pan-Africa"
• India
• "Southeast Asia"
• Alt history Imperial Japan that somehow conquered all of China and Mongolia
• "Polynesia"

I feel like those could be lumped together into a singular Greco-Roman civ if you actually want to make it sound terrible.

Or alt history Mongolia that conquered Japan.

Weren't both alt histories where japan didn't conquer maori?

As in 2 Civs per continent.

I can't wait to see the list of Civs for Antarctica . . .

 

[Caesar of Bread]

I can't wait to see the list of Civs for Antarctica . . .

Penguins and Sea Lions

I can't wait to see the list of Civs for Antarctica . . .

The line of units, already animated leader - on the right.

 

[Bonyduck Campersang]

I feel like those could be lumped together into a singular Greco-Roman civ if you actually want to make it sound terrible.

A) A single Italian blob that includes Etruscans, Rome, Lombards, and medieval and modern Italy
B) A single Greek blob that includes Ancient Greece, Macedon, the Selecuids, Bactria, Ptolemaic Egypt, Byzantines, Trebizond and the modern Greek state

 

[BuchiTaton]

Here is the real deal, 2 civs by continet defined by Tectonic Plates!!!
- North America: America and Azteca
- Caribbean: Haiti and Taino
- South America: Inca and Brazil
- African: Egypt and Zulu
- Somali: Somali and Malagasy
- Eurasian: Rome and China
- Arabian: Babylon and Arabia
- Indian: Pakistan and India (because Gandhi )
- Australian: Australia and Maori
- Pacific: Hawaii and Rapa Nui
- Philippine: No one because China would ban the game

 

[pecheneg]

In order to develop good traditions of realism 5/6
1. Hypersonic Intercontinental archer
2. Aviation with a radius of 0
3. Melee ICBM
4. Godzilla and King Kong in the company of a humanoid robot.
5. Discard unnecessary compromises and directly draw units in the style of "South Park".

They could, yes. But even in a scenario like this I couldn't imagine Civ not making an exception for Greece.

Terrible Idea #6: To facilitate micromanagement population is now represented as civilian units on the map.

This made me weep in terror. Also I think this idea is the worst (the best?) because I can actually sort of imagine it being implemented, in the similar way we got manual religious conversion, manual spies and single use workers

Terrible Idea #6a: all the population is represented as Civilian Units on the map AND they are all 1UPT.

 

[Bonyduck Campersang]

To build upon that idea, religious units will have to find and convert each citizen individually

Idk.. that's pretty bad for 6b.

 

[Naokaukodem]

And unstacked buildings as districts and wonders.

Terrible Idea #6a: all the population is represented as Civilian Units on the map AND they are all 1UPT.

In my idea you can stack up to 5 pop points in a single hex without buildings. So you can make them armies early, or cities with proper buildings. (allowing more stacking but being sedentarian)
When you move them, they automatically work the tile from the hex they are up to 3 hex away depending on your preferences. Roads create themselves between center hex and worked tiles, disappearing slowly if you move.

Something that might hurt is when you face a collapse though, in the case your pop has migrated in one turn. If you want to create again a state imediately, you would have to move all the population sparsed away. I think there should be automatic ways to do this. (setup rally points or something)

Comrades, all this is opportunism and bourgeois compromises - if there is no detail to the city mice.

Terrible Idea #15: replace rock band RNG with a Guitar Hero/DDR-like mini-game that increases in difficulty as you rock band levels up. Mini game requires musical instrument controllers and/or DDR pad. The rock band dies if you miss too many notes.

 

[Patine]

Terrible Idea #5: You know what? John Macdonald leads Canada.

Actually, as a leader in his day and age, he wasn't that bad. Yes, there were residentual schools, but contemporary U.S. and Latin American Presidents and European PM 's and rulers to him were fighting lopsided wars against, and massacreing, indigenous peoples. Yes, he did drink too much, and loved the inhumane cock fights, but most other leaders contemporary to him had really bad personal habits, too.

Terrible Idea #16: Due to rock bands existing in the game, the theme for Civ VI will be changed into “Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey

for god’s sake that song is annoying

That's the worst song you could come up with?
