Working On Star Wars Civ 5 Mod + Sorry I Haven’t Been Posting Much Lately!

Sorry I haven’t been posting much lately! I’m currently working on a Star Wars Civ 5 Mod, so I’ve been working on that a lot recently, and haven’t had time to post on my blog, or have many things to post about!

Let me tell you a bit about this Star Wars Mod I’m creating. Well, It’s gonna be the Imperial Empire (Short Name: Imperium – still not sure about this bit, open to suggestions! ), and will be led by Emperor Palpatine. I’ve spent a lot of time looking up what planets, moons (And Death Stars ) I will use as city names in my mod, and also reading through the Civ Modders Guide. Yesterday, I was reading about flavors- which look pretty awesome. This part is how you get your leader to be unique, and choose whether he be peaceful, or a warmonger. If he will build large armies or navies. If your leader will focus on Science, Gold, Culture. If your leader will expand, or stay small. There are so many possibilities. I can’t wait to set it (Palpatine will likely be most like Genghis Khan, often Hostile, and attempting conquest over minor civs).

Also, I’ve been making a little mini “Endor” map, which I started a game on yesterday, against Genghis Khan, Oda Nobunaga, and Attila of the Huns; two of them declared war after about 15 turns!! (I was sorta testing out what it might be like to play against the Emperor )

Civ: Maps, Mods, Resources and Polls

After finishing my map, I finally got time to try it out! It’s a pretty cool map, but there weren’t as many resources as I thought I’d put on. It looked a little… empty  Maybe I’ll modify it. What do you think?

When studying the resources closely, also, I found that I’d put more Uranium on the map than any other Strategic Resource. Which Strategic Resources Would You Say Are Most Vital?

And one more thing. I started the game many times to check if it wasn’t just a coincidence, and it certainly wasn’t; every time I’ve played on this map, I always start in the same place, and I’d set 10 starting points. Any idea what the problem is? I’d really appreciate your advice! Thank you!

Civ Map Finished!!!!!!

I told you a few days ago that I was making a Civ Map. Well, yesterday evening, I finally finished it! No wonder I’d been taking so long with it though; I’d been doing every single tile individually, when I realized you can paint hexagons of 32 tiles onto the map in one click! … Well, at least I’ll know for next time

Details:

Starting Points:

10 Player Starting Points

7 City State Starting Points

Width- Roughly 45 Tiles Wide

Height- Roughly 70 Tiles Tall

Barbarians- 6 Barbarian Camps + 19 Barbarians

Vital Strategic Resources:

14 Uranium Spots (Either 4 or 2 in quantity)

7 Aluminum Spots (Either 4 or 2 in quantity)

6 Iron Spots (Varying quantity- mostly 4-6)

4 Horses Spots (Varying quantity- mostly 6)

Also several coal and many oil (Esp. around the coast)

Terrain- Mostly Grassland. Also Plains and Desert. Very few tiles of snow/tundra.

Today, I’ll be making it into a mod and playing on it

Please feel free to ask any questions about the map, or civ gameplay, or anything relevant

Thanks!

Civilization 5: Domination and New Beginnings

After conquering Holland, Ethiopia, and the mighty Celts, and conquering the capitals of Genghis Khan and Byzantium, I finally won Domination for the first time on the Warlord setting! (The diplomatic marriage ability also helped for city states, though I did conquer a few of them without the help of it!)

Today, I started a new game, as the Mayans! Pacal’s ability (Long Count) is awesome, plus three Uranium mines help me guard my capital with Giant Death Robots and back my arsenals with Nukes! There is also so much space on this map, it’s unbelievable. Does anyone know, does the map get larger for the more civs you use?! … … … …

All the city states besides me are afraid. And they have reason to be! I have a mighty empire, and a strong army. By asking for tribute, I add to my treasury, which is growing 322 a turn! (top left!)

Please comment , and if you’re a beginner, or want to get Civ (buy here), please feel free to ask me any civ-related questions or advice!
