nothing but respect for MY Diggers

Also, another mistake bugged the new Greek ability. Here's how it should look: All governments unlocked from turn 1. Be fascist in 1000 B.C.? With the power of Plato, you can! It's up to the player to figure out when the extra Envoys are worth the relationship hit and possibly blocked policy slots.

Having lots of fun adding policy flavor names and the research required is very satisfying. Civs have custom looks for units and buildings but doing something like that with text remains a missed opportunity so far. A little goodie for the classical antiquity fans:

Mad respect to the Grimhammer modders who are not just taking a stance against AI-made mods but apparently also have full-time help desk jobs - these numbers are beyond imagination to me, lol

I thought maybe there's a map that could be edited for a super quick meme and found this and I am definitely not explaining to anyone outside this site why I had to giggle right away

Encouraging a Civ player to interact with various mechanics to emulate a real-world phenomenon organically is quite difficult. The temptation to just make a stacking yield bonus is real. But holy shit does it feel good when you push through and find a great idea for a systems-driven bonus.

and with the matching background, too, straight out of SWTOR's settings

I just know @docksecky.bsky.social is basically our resident civ 6 fan artist. As for matching the game's style as closely as possible, modder Leugi has done some incredible 2D art that fits in really well:

Fake mustaches exist and there are plenty of Hitler-impersonating satires here. Not aware of any where he does Trump stuff as far as I know, but "Hitler is confronted with contemporary society" is a well-covered satirical setting at this point. Or this example from a show on public TV no less.

In many local elections in Germany, there is "panachage", which means you do not just have lots of parties with lists of candidates, you can freely distribute a given number of votes between the individual candidates.

Submitting this one for Civ VII until someone finds a more genius one where buildings of multiple cultures are stacked or so.

No idea if Hawaiians were the best choice, but they sure were the coolest and most fitting!

Modder brain is when you think about a game multiple times a day but actually *play* it just a month. But when I do, it's suddenly 7am again and I need to get ready for work without any sleep... Got what's maybe the most lovely scenery in started with in this game so far though:

lol those feet are even fully clothed (well, most of them) - definitely got more textiles on them than Catherine in "the civ game for children"!

Ok long ages setting makes it quite fun but is probably not that balanced. But who'd have thought that I'd end up warmongering in Civ... Really fun system this time around. I even enjoyed Exploration as a whole due to being able to focus more on my own continent as Songhai.

fwiw, Skyrim's German loc had consulting from the modders who made the fix for Oblivion. Now *that* was a game where the German loc was absolutely butchered.

JNR (Civ Modding) @jnr-modding.bsky.social · 16/03/2025

Turns out that when the game asks "which city?" and you say "the player", it gets mad. Issue is fixed, just need to test if all effects work as intended. Then hopefully have this coming soon. Bonus points for anyone who knows all three references made in the thumbnail.

There's a risk with playing snipers when you know you just peaked and will never ever do something as good again. After this play, the game just wasn't the same for me anymore and I eventually stopped playing, lol. (yes, this was still OW1)

These are the choices I made. Interesting that the modern one asks for cohesiveness on a wildcard focused leader :D Looking forward to finding it in future playthroughs then, after all the challenges are set up to play a leader (at least) 3x anyway.

Filling out my building sheets with pics from my Mughal game, I didn't even see the Schoolhouse at first - it's one of the few modern buildings where the whole model is adjusted for a style instead of just recoloring the same model.

Interesting. I noticed that specialists don't count as Urban Population but are their own thing.

First proper mod: making warehouses overbuildable (without yield loss) so modern cities don't have ancient Granaries in their downtown anymore.

This one came totally unexpected, but I'm definitely invested in it!
