It kinda looks like the unicorn myth is also permanent, which is nice.

Are there other myths like that? Can you get vampires

Personally I'm just excited to see where else everything goes. I really look forward to us getting a culture and seeing what that does.

I vote for this. Just cheat in a ton of tech or money for the AI or something.

You can also get Rocketry, and thus the Apollo Program, without Combustion.

I'm imagining either launchers or steampunk style space zeppelins.

One thing I do think is interesting is that the atmosphere map came up again in beyond earth. I wish the c2c guys weren't stuck in civ4; I bet they could get a lot out of BE's systems.

The worst part of the game... is all the racist and biotruth stuff.

But on a less obviously awful level, i'm kind of starting to get creeped out at how despite all the horrible jank it seems to have hacked my brain so easily. Despite normal civ not really appealing to me that much, I am really feeling the "One More Turn" vibes at this point, even as I sit here waiting for the results of the vote.

I suppose it helps to ensure that i'll see this thing through to the end, especially because i'm LPing it for an audience this time around, if nothing else.

I think the reason c2c does this is that it is loving loaded with a billion things to do, so you can always find at least one close-term goal.

The Smith quote is extremely appropriate for the tech it represents imo, it's the core belief that made that entire enterprise possible spoken by one of its most fervent and horrific followers

the PLO fighter is, I assume, due to their heavy usage of rockets and mortars when it comes to actions against Israel, but it is also very dumb and nonsensical. so it's a perfect fit for this mod

The gold standard is insane once you get asteroid mining, since a single asteroid can have enough gold to completely trivialize most precious metals.

And the barbarians who raid the other civilizations, are they the ones who walk away from Omelas?

the other civilizations are the children. We are their gods, everything we can do is unheard of, and yet we keep our fellow men wallowing in dirt and filth, scoffing from across dimensions as we leave them behind on a hollowed-out rock. This is why we kept the gold standard for so long, even when we passed material needs and could replicate basic matter at a whim;
