The Comanche (Iron Jacket)

super late but, finally got around to fixing it all up (i hope)

@martin_van_rossum: Thanks. And I did make a typo in my last comment, just so you know it will be a while before I have the chance to update this civ, so it will probably be a few months

@space walrus: Yes it should only spawn missionaries of your own religion, or even only if a city is annexed? Cuz now you can capture a city, get the missionary upon peace and then burn it for the other benefits. Even if that city was already in your religion it might be a bit strange. The increased cost of units when razing is also strange. After the fix I'll get back to this one. Goodluck!

@martin_van_rossum: Interesting. So I'll need to fix that unit production bug and change the missionaries. Perhaps the missionary spawn should only happen if the city with the UB has your religion? I may lower the spread strength of the missionaries as well if it's that easy to get lots of them. Anyways, thanks for the report. You don't have to playtest anything unless you want to lol. But it'll probably be able until I can update this civ with some fixes.

@Space Walrus, your quick response got me into trying them for myself. The Comanche are a super interesting concept. They are all about striking quickly, getting a nice peace deal and then go to war not much later for more goodness.

So I played them to really test and feel what they are like and possible provide some feedback. Some funky stuff happened, so here we go:

I got into a war with the Cree early but they were far far away from me. I stalled the peace deal until I had the half-moon churches up. Before that happened Spain declared war on me. I took Cordoba and Madrid in that war. Then I got to finish the half-moon churches and made peace with the Cree. This gave me 1 missionary in each city, as promised. I had 3 cities besides the two captured, so that was nice. Then I made peace with Spain and this gave me 3 more missionories in every city. This gave me a Total of 12 missionories for my own religion but also 3 catholic missionaries in Madrid which was Spain’s holy city. These peace deals were made during the same turn and I got 15 missionaries.

Then I decided to Raze Cordoba and see how much faster my unit production would be during a city raze. However the cost of units went up instead of down. Building a catapult took me 9 turns before razing and 40 turns when I started razing.

Besides these strange situations I love the concept of this civ. The pillage while at peace does work very nice, I enjoyed that a lot. Haven’t got to the Quickstinger yet. I am open to playtest some more if that helps.

@martin_van_rossum: Yeah the AI tend to do that sometimes for lots of civs and I have no idea why. My only suggestion is trying again in a new game as maybe the AI pathing got messed up. But if the problem persists I can try increasing the AI's Expansion flavor to see if that'll get the AI to settle.

I think it is amazing that modders are still putting great civs out there! Thank you for creating another civ! I played a game where Comanche was one of the AI's at immortal difficulty. After 150 turns they still had no second city founded. Besides that they seem to function proparly and the leader screen is well done. There was plenty of space and time to settle so that was a bit odd. Anyway keep up the good work!
