Sid Meiers Civilization III: Complete Medieval Tournament Mod

Überblick

The game begins similarly to any other multiplayer mod, with one settler, one worker, and a scout if you’re expansionist. Your starting point in the tech tree is the middle of the Middle Ages, with about half the tech tree already completed. The game is played with a 70 turn time limit, and single city elimination. The game is designed to be played on a 60% water Pangaea map.

The smallest map size is ideal for 4 Spieler, and the largest map is ideal for a full 8 player lobby, with a few option in between. Most civilization choices have their standard unique unit and traits, with some changes to allow for gameplay variety, and to make sure every Civ has a land-based UU.

Zu Beginn des Spiels, you’ll want to switch governments right away to get out of despotism, and switch to either Republic, Monarchy, or Feudalism, mehr dazu später!

ONLY the host needs to have the file downloaded, as it’s based off vanilla Civ.

Technologiebaum

The tech tree doesn’t deviate from the standard game Middle Ages, mit wenigen Ausnahmen. Most of the „friedlich“ technologies in the tree are already learned, allowing you to construct Cathedrals, Banken, or Universities without any additional research.

Ideal, at game start, one team member will research Chivalry, another Astronomy, and another will do Engineering through Gunpowder. A fourth team member can save gold, gegebenenfalls. Note that if you have at least one Scientific civilization on your team, they’ll have one of these techs already. Max research time is 25 dreht sich, so if you have low gold and only need to research one tech for your team, you can set the science slider to minimum to get it by turn 25.

Navigation can be optionally researched to provide access to Frigates and safe ocean travel, and if you’re REALLY safe, you can research all the way to Military Tradition to get your team access to Cavalry. There is no benefit to researching physics or any of the techs following it.

The only major changes to the tech tree are that Astronomy also gives access to Offshore Platforms now, and Navigation gives access to Frigates for naval superiority. Ansonsten, Middle Age techs are identical to base game. Zusätzlich, beliebig „besonders“ abilities you would normally pick up in the MPT tech tree are available right off the bat, including the ability to irrigate without freshwater, and the ability to trade maps/contacts.

Governments

At game start, you’ll want to immediately switch into anarchy so you can pick a new government sooner. Anarchy has been

verändert, it is now equivalent to despotism with the following differences:

– No unit support

– No ability to hurry production

This means that during anarchy, you can still gather shields to put towards units or buildings, and make tile improvements at normal worker speed without falling too far behind. Jedoch, your economy will be non-existent until you switch out.

The three government choices available at game start are:

– Republik

– Monarchy

– Feudalism

The governments are largely unchanged from vanilla C3C, mit wenigen Ausnahmen:

Republik– Units cost 1 gold per turn over unit cap

Monarchy– Worker speed is 200%

Feudalism– Worker speed is 150%, units cost 1 gold per turn over unit cap, unhappiness penalty for slaving: 20 -> 15 dreht sich

Zusätzlich, each government gets access to a unique granary with bonus effects:

Republik– 50% bonus taxes

Monarchy– 25% bonus production

Feudalism– +2 happy faces

Here is a more detailed rundown of each governments pros and cons:

The following traits and starting locations can possibly help you pick a government that’s well suited to your situation:
