Components – Governments
Adds a Governments System. Completely different from my other Governments system, which was taken out of Empires Ascendant and suffered from a number of the same issues as EA, this one is completely new and written from the ground up as separate and a bit sleeker. All the Governments have voiced quotes from Leonard Nimoy. Intended to be cleaner and less of a major new system and more of a flavorful accompaniment to the existing systems. Designed for and included in (with updates) Il Principe.
In the future when AI is a lil bit better and practically free, I’ll replace the voiced Leonard Nimoy quotes with the voice of William Morgan Sheppard, and get the AI to generate culturally and aesthetically appropriate consistent Government splashes in Craig Mullins’ beautiful Civ 5 wonder style, but for now, c’est la vie.
