[Just for fun] Unique bonuses for hypothetical new civs

[UpmostRook9474]

• After hitting a new age, the techs of the old ages -50% research time. This does not accumulate, eg the Loom takes 12.5 seconds in both Feudal and Imperial Age.

• The resource generation rate of Relic +20% per researched Monastery tech.

• Villager Wagon: Inspired by Settler Wagon of AoE3. The second villager unit at TC, costs 50 food, 50 wood and 2 population, with twice the gathering, construction and repair efficiency of Villagers. This civilization could start the game with 1 Villager and 1 Villager Wagon.

@UpmostRook9474

Fur Trade: Hunters can generate some few gold.

This may have the equivalent version for Fishermen, Shepherds and Foragers.

@HeBroGaming

I think some UU can farm which is historial correct. But for balance this UU cannot do other eco

Like a Serjeant who builds Farms instead of Donjons.
I quite like the idea, but obviously it should be infantry.

• Siege Weapons regenerates slowly

• Villagers mover 15% faster

• Starts with 2 scouts

It’s not a Vinifrss. Doesn’t talk the same way, and no account with the Anniversary badge can be a Vinifrss, they wouldn’t be dormant long enough.

@Zero17893

Villagers mover 15% faster
Crossbowman tech researchs 33% faster
Bombard canon shoots 15% faster
Archers +2 melee amor

Similar bonus are already exist. I think the crossbow tech can be like Turks free Light Cavalry upgrade or Bulgarians free Militia upgrade. But maybe no Arbalester upgrade for that civ but have a UT that can compensate the unit stat like Bulgarians UT Bagains.

@Zero17893

Starts with 2 scouts

I think it needs -100 or even -150 starting food for compensation

[MatCauthon3]

@Zero17893

• Villagers mover 15% faster

@Zero17893

• Bombard canon shoots 15% faster

these two bonuses basically already exist for other civs.

@Zero17893

• Starts with 2 scouts

this would be completely busted

[SMUM15236]

@Zero17893

The first 2 Villagers are free

Similar bonus - First 2 villagers from each TC can be trained for free.

[emarz4697]

Probably better considering the original bonus seems like its just “start with 100 more food”.

[SMUM15236]

You’re right. So essentially an worse version of Lithuanians.

[HeBroGaming]

Maybe it would be a Defensive civ like Koreans so that they cannot use the extra good to do drush

[Zero17893]

Yeah, You start only with 50 food, but You can easily scout, and this civ would get a very open tech tree to be very powerful

[emarz4697]

Assuming you are referring to the comments above, if the first 2 villagers are free and you have the standard 200 food then that’s the same as having 100 more food because you’re not spending the food other civs spend for their first 2 villagers. You can still use the extra food for a drush. If the first 2 villagers are free but you start with 100 food to compensate as the comment above me suggests (50 food?), then your bonus literally does nothing.

[LilimTheCupid]

How about starting with two Archers instead of two Scouts?

[MatCauthon3]

Even more busted. Seriously who thinks this is balanced?

[SMUM15236]

Heavy Cavalier upgrade replaces Paladin upgrade. Stat, and upgrade cost and time will be in between Cavalier and Paladin.

[Martinurello]

Houses placed next to a farm generate a very little trickle of food.

-A House generate same food don’t care how many farms would be next to it. Only one farm triggers the bonus.
-Houses that generate food are only those that support pop space. This mean, that once you reach pop limit any house builded will not generate food.
-Any «superior» building that gives pop space (TC or Castle) reduces the trickle

[Hasbox3226]

one drop off camp that function as mill, lumbercamp and mining camp. farming around your wood line/gold/stone camp, safing wood if ressources are next to each other, only needing this building to go to feudal age, research eco upgrades in one building (as extra bonus maybe wheelbarrow to save TC production time)? its all possible with the brand new MULTIFUNCTIONAL DROP OFF BUILDING

[Hasbox3226]

@AlphaCreator727

Civ bonus: Technologies can be searched without need to wait in the queue line
Same cost and research time

• Advanced to next age and keep training vills

the game doesnt consider the age up button as a technology. you can see that with chinese and portuguese

[SMUM15236]

TC spawn a relic when advanced to the Castle and maybe Imperial age. Only the TC that completed the age advancing, unlike Bengalis.
