Feature request: Missing civilizations from the “Brave New World” expansion. about unciv

What exactly is the difference, if it's in mods or not...?
I'd you want it in the base game, you'll need to wait until we finish G&K entirely, which - given we've been at it for years - may take a while

I believe our public mission statement is clear enough: No BNW. BNW has some mechanisms extremely changed - tourism and culture for instance, and so would require some extreme amount of work ¹. Mods might approximate some of that, no more.

That said, some properties of these BNW-specific civs are currently not possible but could be implemented - where tourism is not involved. The Shoshone for example would need a little code for Native Tongue, and a little for the extra 12 tiles a newly founded city gets, that's all - I remember because I once almost started on these. Still, those would be new UniqueTypes for the base game, the actual Civ data I would not propose here, but do a Mod of it - because it's not G&K.

I really don't know what your beef with Mods is - seems like a pure prejudice. Harsh words like "Mods? That's not fun!" or "needed" don't fit Unciv - Unciv is all about moddability, the base game is only a tiny fraction of its glory, unless you see it as engine for mods. Is it only the self-regulating, un-curated character of the Mod "landscape" maybe? I get that... But just learn your favourites once, then ignore the rest - works for me.

Oh!, I understand, the Mods thing is a personal problem and I didn't want to offend. Thank you for responding! And forgive me if I have been annoying.

No problem
