Civilization/Barbarian name: The Xij
Did you already take part previously: No
Previous location/Preferred kind of starting location: Steppe
A few sentences detailing the background of your civilization/barbarians:
The Xij are a group of various nomadic tribes and villages living in the steppes, The Xij are a vary agressive civilization and tend to raid nearby nations that aren't considered friends of The Xij, The Xij have also made very few technological advances in the last centery.
Also could Astrology be moved back on the tech tree? Because from what I saw (could be mistaken because the text was small) it was somewhere by the industrial era.

You start with 2 points and then immediately get 2 points in addition for the first day.Kzaria wrote:It says on the first page
" In the beginning, the Ancient era, you will get two points per day, and your starting bonus will also be 2 points. "
Does that mean you start with 2 or 4 points?

I agree, perhaps this should be included with Mysticism?
I also have to ask (I feel like I'm playing 200 questions with you by now Jute ) , are we using rl religions? The religions that come with the new technology or are we free to create our own when we research the new techs?
Feel free to suggest more/other technologies if you want more variety or have something in mid more fitting for your playstyle. Unless it's ridiculously overpowered, it'll probably be fine.

Yes, but ideologies will obviously only become a thing later on. And I was thinking about that, but I really wanted to get started already, since people kept asking. I might add them at some time, though.Levis Avara wrote:Hmm what ideolgies if any will we get to have? Also do you think special units could be a thing?
