Something that was rolling around in my mind a little bit: if Creation/Force/Dimensional mana were ever introduced to the game, whose palaces should supply that mana, and which mana would they replace?

The Kurios would probably get Creation since that's their sphere. It could probably replace Water, as that's present in a lot of palaces already. It's tempting to give it to the Ljosalfar as well, but all their mana suits them well already. Maybe it could also go to the Luchuirp in exchange for Life mana, as they are creators, but not of living things.

The Grigori would get Force as it's their theme. It's tempting to have it replace Water, but I already mentally did that with the Kurios. They seem to have a strong self-improvement theme, so Enchantment makes sense, and they seem to get along with Sirona and the Elohim so Spirit works as well. Hmm. Otherwise, I think that the Bannor could have Force as it and Law work quite well together, probably replacing Spirit because they don't seem to emphasise compassion much. It's also tempting to give it to the Malakim as they are consumate traders, maybe in exchange for Life, which is already pretty common.

For Dimensional, the Sheaim already have that as their theme so they'd have it. It's kind of hard to figure out what it should replace, as Fire, Chaos, and Death all make sense, but if I had to settle on something it would probably be Chaos, as they're just not quite so wild and crazy. Maybe the Amurites could also have it, as they can be obsessive about magic, and Ceridwen is the god of both obsession and magic (well, sort of). They'd be playing with fire, but hey, they already are. It could probably kick out Body, since they don't seem to have too much of a rage issue.

Anyhow, anyone else have thoughts?
 
In my version, the only civs to use Creation, Force, and Dimensional are the Kuriotates, Grigori, and Sheaim.


I've been thinking it could be a good idea for each palace to give 4 mana instead of 3, so we don't have to choose which one to remove, and since I think a lot of civs have more than 3 appropriate mana types. This would of course require SDK changes (or require using python to give out mana-granting buildings in the palace city instead of tying it entirely to the palace). Personally, I'd really like to be able to make buildings give out an arbitrary number of an arbitrary number of resources (with the number defined separately for each, instead of the same for all 3 like it is now).
 
Dont these already exist in FF.
Just check there. The same team made it so it must be as canon as the original.
 
I think Fall Further was made by people other than those who did the regular FfH, so I don't think it's quite canon, really.
