Description:

Adds city-states to the game which are minor versions of full civilizations!

Become suzerain of these city-states and claim these civs’ abilities for your own! Often you will claim all or part of a full civilization’s unique ability. Other times, you will gain access to that civ’s unique improvement or building.

See the images above for a full list of the types and suzerain bonuses of each of these new city-states!

NOTE: In order for the full civs and their city-state equivalents to be mutually exclusive, several front end files must be edited:
– AdvancedSetup.lua
– CityStatePicker.lua
– PlayerSetupLogic.lua
– StagingRoom.lua
Any other mods that make changes to these files may not be compatible with this one!

Additionally, due to the way mutual exclusivity is done here, this mod preselects all human and AI major civs. This means that even if you choose Random for all players, restarting from the in game menu will keep all player civs the same as they were before; city-states may still change depending on the availability of city-states selected.

Huge shoutout to Zegangani for writing the lua code for this mod! Thanks a ton!
