Colony and Empire

This mod is an experimental overhaul and rebalancing mod for Civ6. Focuses on introducing new features such as Corruption, Stability, and Colonies, enhancing International Trade Routes and Strategic Resources, and improving AI and Combat systems. The goal is to make the game more historically realistic and strategic. Details.

2024/08/24:
- Extensive and overall balancing. Reduce overall costs to solve the problem of research costs and city maintenance costs that are too high to make game play difficult.
- (Option) Cities can now be destroyed by nuclear attack.
- (Option) Human players now get the same bonuses as AI players.
- (Option) The World Bank can now be enabled/disabled.

In the original Civ6, it was all about increasing the number of cities. Territorial expansion penalties (city maintenance costs like in Civ4, global happiness like in Civ5, etc.) do not exist in Civ6. Therefore, the more cities you build, the more powerful your civilization becomes, like a snowball, and the more you can overwhelm other civilizations. Infinite City Spam (ICS) is probably the best strategy in Civ6.

However, in this mod, Corruption and Stability have been introduced. This means that the more cities a civilization owns, the less output and loyalty it has per city.

Each city suffers a penalty of "total number of cities * -5% output" and "total number of cities * -2 loyalty" due to increased Corruption and decreased Stability. For example, if a civilization owns 10 cities, each city suffers a penalty of -50% output and -20 loyalty. if a civilization owns 20 cities, each city suffers a penalty of -100% output and -40 loyalty.

If there are too many cities, the growth of each city will stop, the total output of the civilization will decrease, and a lack of loyalty will lead to rebellion. This makes a small number of large cities more efficient than a large number of small cities, and makes tall plays more advantageous.

In addition, the government has added effects that increase the output and loyalty of each city. For example, Monarchy gives each city +30% output and +12 loyalty. Synthetic Technocracy gives each city +50% output and +20 loyalty. As you move to a more advanced government, the Corruption/Stability penalty can be offset and you can own more cities.

In this mod, cities are divided into three different states.

- Anarchic City: A city immediately after settlement is anarchic. Anarchic cities have drastically reduced output and are virtually non-functional. For a city to function, a City Hall or Governor-General's Office must be built.
- Direct-Controlled City: A city where a City Hall is built becomes a direct-controlled city. The direct-controlled city will recover its original output and become available for development.
- Colony: A city with a Governor-General's Office becomes a colony. The colony itself remains sharply reduced in output, but increases the output of civilization's trade routes and direct-controlled cities.

Cities built by their own civilization can also be colonized. However, it is more profitable to colonize cities taken from other civilizations. Up to 8 direct-controlled cities can be owned. Thus, all other cities become colonies.

Creating districts and buildings in colonies has little effect and wastes maintenance costs. Therefore, it is rational for the colonies not to develop and continue to produce projects. This saves time and effort in city development. The colonial system is intended to reduce micro-management when the number of cities increases, as in the case of the vassal states in Civ 4 and the puppet cities in Civ 5.

In the original Civ6, international trade routes are less important, and autarky (self-sufficient economy) is encouraged. Even a civilization isolated from the rest of the world can develop sufficiently through building output and domestic trade alone. Moreover, isolation is more advantageous for development because there are fewer competitors and more cities can be built.

In reality, this is not true. Regions that have not interacted with foreign countries have not been able to introduce advanced technology and culture, and their development has been slow. Also, free trade countries that can take advantage of the vast global market are more likely to develop than protectionist countries.

This mod greatly increased the science and culture available from international trade routes, and also gave nearly the same amount of output to both the origin and destination. This will allow civilizations that mutually send each other international trade routes to develop faster than those that use only domestic trade routes. This will solve the problem of initial location disparity, as isolated civilizations will have an advantage in territorial expansion because there are few cities of other civilizations, while civilizations in densely populated areas will have an advantage in technological development because they have many trading partners.

In addition, the available trade route capacity has been increased. In addition to Markets and Lighthouses, Airports and technological development will also increase trade route capacity. As the weight of trade routes in the economy and research has increased far more, civilizations that are cut off from international trade will be far behind in their development.

In this mod, all units consume strategic resources. Strategic resources are now very important. In addition, resources are now supplied by buildings. For example, the Armory supplies Niter, and the Hangar supplies Aluminum. This will ensure the minimum amount of strategic resources required. Personnel, Devotees, Materials, and Manpower have been added to the new strategic resources.

Newly added Recruitment/Immigration projects will allow for population movement between cities. Recruitment project consumes the city's population to obtain Manpower resources. Immigration project consumes Manpower resources and increase the city's population. The import and export of Manpower to and from other countries allows for migration between nations.

When the total gold revenue per turn is +10000 or more, the World Bank is built. Upon completion, Diplomatic and Cultural Victories are assured, effectively achieving an Economic Victory.
