Civilization V

[Miao]

Gib Nizairi Ismaili!

Hyped? I hope you will have fun with an espionage focused civ and a melee UU that never becomes obsolete and gain strength with each military technology researched. It's ready for download now.

Thank you for finishin' the Hashashin, now I can start my next campaign.

Miao, are you sure you don't want this uploaded to Steam?

Why would I want it there anyway? To have pages and pages of comments complainin' about no E&D support (<-- I don't even use that ) and a proper LS? You already know I don't like Steam.

Yes, I am hyped! But I have to go to school now so I'll have to check that civ later...

But thanks, much thanks for everyone who put their time on Nizairi Ismaili/ The Hashashin.Now, Senegal...

You're welcome.

Nizairi Ismaili/ The Hashashin.

Fun fact. The complete name of the civilization is "Nizari Ismaili", you will see it as that in the Religion Overview screen and DoM, but in-game it's just "Hashashin". Nice way to stop that divide we and a few others had on what it should really be called, isn't it?
though you can always edit the code and make it be called whatever you want.

Fun fact 2: The Hashashin were assassins from the Middle East. They were known to smoke Marihuana and Hashies to become unaffected by emotions when killing.
The English name Assassins is derived from them, so is the word Hash for the resin made from Marihuana.

Well, if you try yourself to pronounce "Hashashin" you should already get an idea the word 'assassin' has its origins on it.

The whole Assassin's Creed franchise started by bein' based off the Nizari Ismaili state IIRC.

Mare Nostrum

And so another campaign begins. This time the theme and main objective should be really clear as the title already says it all.

I'll be tryin' to get to the same form the Roman Empire got to in another player's TSL campaign:


But I won't be doin' this as Rome. When I was plannin' this I was undecided on whether I should do it as Italy (a la Roman Phoenix style) or just as some random nation that has the possibility of havin' territory borderin' the Mediterranean Sea. I went in with the later and I'm doin' this as the Kingdom of León, a civ with a fabulous colour scheme.

Here are some settings for this campaign:


As you can see, I am now playin' on Emperor Difficulty instead of King. This should be more of a challenge than my other campaigns were.

Anyways, some important mods in use are:

-No InstaHeal
-Aggressive and Expansive AI
-Less Warmonger Hate
-No Research Agreements
-Future Worlds

Yes, this time I won't be usin' any mods that extend the research time, there is only 1 that works with Future Worlds as far as I know and in my last campaign (which went all the way to turn 800) no one even got close to completin' the tech tree.

The current campaign is at turn 100. There isn't that much to talk about. Here's the map:


So far, out of all the civilizations I've met, there has been only 3 wars. One of them was myself (León) against the Moors, which would be a quite sad battle to watch if this was an AI-only game as I prematurely started the war to steal the Moors' settlers before they could settle a city. The other war was Aragon versus Provence, which is goin' in Aragon's favour. And the last war I know about is between San Marino and Pisa, San Marino ended up takin' away Pisa, both are nations who aren't even supposed to play this aggressively but thanks Aggressive and Expansive AI mod.

And for now only 2 InfoAddicts windows since these 2 are the only ones that matter this early in the game.

Oh, and I forgot to say it. This campaign marks the debut of the Hashashin and the Kingdom of Zhangzhung, which was the secret civ I mentioned before. Both are available at MediaFire right now.

[Zério]

Kingdom of Zhangzhung

Where the hell is that even from?

Also, I don't like being ignored:

Ibiza

Leader: Stuart Wintory, master of squabbles.
Capital: Eivissa

UA: Solar Crown

+50% tourism and gold during golden ages.

UB: Car Showroom

Replaces the museum. On top of all the museum benefits the car showroom also adds +1 happiness per great work of art slot filled. Has 2 Car Engineer specialist slots.


UU: Bugatti Veyron

Replaces the Modern Armor. Ignores enemies' ZoC and has +1 movement on top of the modern armor's. When garrisoned in a city, generates +1 happiness and culture (stacks with the ones gained from a specific honor policy). Requires 1 oil resource to be built, does not become obsolete.


UU2: Great Car Engineer

Can create a great work of engineering (these take up the slots of great works of art). Great works of engineering are all the cars in TDU2 list's.

This is actually a pretty solid design for a civilization, even if it is for a joke one.

Would you care to also make Oahu led by the Wilder Brothers so that they can squabble with Stuart even outside of the TDU2 universe?

Kingdom of Zhangzhung

A little search through Google never hurt anybody, you know.

It's a nice alternative to Tibet to have around, this is also one of these civilizations that I never thought they'd be made into a mod for this game but they were anyway. Thanks for this one too, Miao.

Sorry about that. I did see your post but I forgot to quote and answer it back then.

Havin' Oahu also added in as a joke civilization alongside Ibiza would be nice but I have no ideas about what their design should be. So for now I only plan on addin' Stuart's Ibiza to the game.
