Boom’s Great Philosophers
This mod adds a new type of Great Person, the Great Philosopher. The Great Philosopher is tied to the Theater Square and has mostly regular effects, rather than focusing upon Great Works like the other Theater Great People.
This mod is a step in a series of planned mods that should rebalance culture and tourism income throughout the game. I dislike how heavily the Theater Square is focused on tourism while culture is also an important part of the game that can’t be obtained easily by other methods.
As a result, a series of Great People related to the Theater Square but apart from tourism should be an interesting addition especially as I complete other related mods.
Besides adding the new Great Philosopher class, some minor balance changes have been made:
- Amphitheaters are slightly cheaper and grant 2 Great Writer points
- Pericles now receives a random Inspiration when recruiting a Great Philosopher
- Humanism Inspiration changed to “Recruit a Great Philosopher”

This mod should be compatible with all other mods. However, other mods that rework the theater square will most likely not account for the rebalancing I have done so either their or my changes will overwrite the other.
Thanks to Mico27 for helping me with understanding the process of unit creation, as well as to the rest of the members of the Civ 6 Modding discord for listening to me complain.
