We don't really make civs together anymore (if at all for most of us). I think the last CIVITAS collab was the new Berbers leader that Seeling and I added.

Could you create a civilization of the Etruscans? Or maybe the Germans with Arminius? Or Illyrians or Dacians? Have you ever thought about something like that? I have several ideas written down for these civilizations, including leaders and unique units, and I'd be happy to share them.The civilizations I mentioned are not randomly chosen; no one has made them yet, and for example, they were playable in civ5 or other games.

Added religion and connected civilopedia agenda entry.

I don't think there's an Darius's agenda and religion in the civilopedia. Could you please check it out?

v1.02
* Added missing Historical Context to Civilopedia.
* New Leader icon.

Darius' Civilopedia entry also appears to be missing, unfortunately.

Darius doesn’t have a religion bias like all the other leaders. He should be Zoroastrianism and Mazdyana when historical religions is activated.

Fixed the agenda issue, and changed the ability to be "recruiting" a Great Merchant rather than "activating" one.

Same problem Tuindwergie described. Darius had only one random agenda. Maria Theresa was alson problematic, she had only hers and no random ones.

He is not speaking Arabic he is speaking Aramaic which was the court language of the Persians

Hi @Deliverator23, Love the mod! Just a quick question, what would be the reason for Darius not having an agenda in one of my games? In fact, he had only ONE agenda, whereas all of the other leaders have three - two random and one preset. In my game Darius has only one randomly assigned agenda, and nothing to indicate the agenda you described here.

@Sandman: Ask Firaxis - audio is taken direct from Civ V!

Love the mod, but dont know why Darius is speaking arabic lmao

Ah yes, the Darius who said Malik Malikaya instead of Sahanshah. Too bad Firaxis didn't take the voicing of the actors as serously as they do now. They had Ramesses II speak Arabic, for God's sake.

Really nice graphically, I agree that he’s too strong. Either the great merchant governor title bonus or the gold and amenity with governor title bonus would be really good by themselves, together they are just way too much, too much synergy.

I would suggest moving the great merchant bonus to another leader and leaving Darius with just the gold and amenity bonus.

Very interesting, but way to strong!
Especially the ease at which to get gov titles with.
They are hard to get for a reason!

Bear in mind that Darius' agenda is not "He's determined to get Golden Ages." If it were, it'd be worded that way.

Thanks for the feedback. Canada uses the exact same Red btw and there is quite a variety of colours used. The Icon can be improved, I agree.

I agree with cyberhawk on the aesthetics. It is pretty jarring and inconsistent with his size on the leader select and his red icon. I would tone it down ever so slightly to maintain consistency with the other leaders.

Great Job on the animation and voices! A few pieces of constructive criticism:

The Red background on his leader icon on the select screen is really jarring compared to the rest of the leaders, makes him stand out as different. Maybe replace that with the muted browns/greens the other leaders use?

Its a little weird that his agenda is entirely golden age focused, but his ability gives no way to more easily earn a golden age, or any benefits for being in a golden age. (In civ 5 he had extra movement during them)

Having tested him in a game, his ability is kinda OP. going wide and spamming commercial hubs, I ended up with 12-15 Great Merchants over the course of the game, so I had over a dozen extra governor titles compared to everyone else, and my 4 biggest cities all had +25-30% gold and +5-6 amenities.

I would drop the merchant's give a title portion, and maybe the amenity, and add some form of generating era score. +1 era score per great person / merchant?

Great job guys!

Before I played, I'm a little worrying about it's ability clashing with the MOD "city road" which builds inner city roads automatically as well, but it turns out compatible perfectly. In fact the Darius covers the "city road", I mean his roads' "flavor" is quite different that I notice it at the very sight LOL. This man's ability is interesting but not OP, and most importantly it suggests the player to build more commercial districts but there is no restrict for player to choose tech/culture/domain, where any kind of development is balanced to leave more strategic possibilities for the player. Thanks for the good design. And I love the animation, even more than Cyrus.

PogChamp My boy is back

The Civ VI music fits him really well tbh, dare I say more so than V

@DiscoDarius: It actually requires R&F. Updated the DLC reqs for the page.

Absolutely fantastic work!

For people not yet blessed with the advantages of the R&F and GS expansions, how does this mod work in the basegame bugwise?

And is multiplayer (with friends, so no competetivity issues) possible?

This is amazing! Thank you so much!

@Deliverator you should import the 3d animated leader for merrik's Venice

Really enjoy tour MODS!!!!!

Babylonians PLEEEAASE

Well, I simply love you too, LOL

God, I simply love you, that's so great to see him back, that was one of my longtime wishes! <3<3<3
And he looks so great! :D
