Not too enthusiastic about Finns butā¦ letās try
a few stipulations: Boyar becomes slavosphere regional.
A Cav Archer and defensive civ
- Mounted Xbows fire 25% faster
- Start with a deep fish under each town center gatherable by villagers
- Regionals train/build/research 33% faster
- Skirmisher +2/3/4 vs non Skirmisher archers
Team Bonus: Fish revealed within 30 range of any TC or Dock
UU: Sissi - This Forest bowman can perform lumber camp building or tree cutting and benefits from villager techs henceforth
UT1: Muinaislinna - This hill fort term makes it so players buildings always act like they are on higher elevation no matter the circumstances!
UT2: Tavastian Resiliance - Varagian Guards, Longboats and Boyars take halved bonus damage!
Regionals: Krepost, Longboat, Boyar, MXbow, Varagian Guard (does not get elite Boyar Longship or VG) Cranequines
Missing Techs:
Barracks: Elite Varagian
Archery Range: Cav Archer (get Parthian for their MXbow alongside cranequin), Hand Cannon
Stable: Elite Boyar, Knight
Siege Worpkshop: Heavy Scorion, Onager, Siege Ram
Dock: Demo Ship, Fast Fire, Elite Cannon Galleon, Elite Longboat
Blacksmith: Plate Barding
Monastery: Fervor, Herbal Medicine, Heresy
Economy: Stone Shaft Mining
Castle: Hoardings
University: Treadmill Crane, Bombard Tower, Heated Shot, Arrow Slits, Architecture
Not too enthusiastic but a civ caught in between both Novogorod and Varagian Sweden means a cross pollination of regions bleeding in through attempts at Vassalization
thoughts:
that feels weird. fish on land?
this would be the first official recognition of regional units?
this is a huge amount of extra damage. even just +1 would already be a lot
not sure I like the idea of military units being able to gather resources. considering this is a castle UU, it feels like a rarely used gimmick
seems very situational. āhill fortsā is already the name of a tech, so kinda weird. But in the end it feels weaker than the existing bonuses/UTs that make TCs stronger. eg extra range just feels stronger
how does a civ with weak monks counter Boyars (halbs and camels are out)
the fact that no matter the elevation your buildings take 25% less damage and deal 25% more damage is not to be underestimated. This translates essentially into an assured 33% durability boost regardless of how reckless you are. Oh no the enemy has the hill?! Lmao even my castle hits harder.
And Boyars are still slower than knights and have low PA so archers tend to work too. Even with half they lack elite upgrade. Possibly Iād want the unit to have 1 pierce armor but they lack barding anyway
Persians have +100% durability for free. this civ needs to pay to get 33%
oh, i missed that part. fair enough, then it could work
Persians have that for TC and Dockā¦ and Cotadels tech helps Castles. I see what you mean.
I guess Treadmill and some more durability wouldnāt be a problem
I was asked to add tech trees to my Saracen split document. Iāve done so (in the fourth card of the document), but Iām bad at math so I mostly followed vibes instead of calculating what would be over- or underpowered
