Religion - Beliefs Expansion Pack

In 1 collection by BlouBlou
Bloublou's "Religion" Collection

Description
This mod largely expands the pantheon/beliefs choice for more customization when founding your religion.

It adds roughly 90 new Beliefs, completly overhauling (but including) vanilla beliefs.



Features:
  • Add approx. 90 beliefs, These beliefs are mostly an expand from existing beliefs for a wider choice for all beliefs type. (check screenshot)
    For example: Vanilla belief gave (+1 Happiness from shrines), i expanded this belief and made 6 of them out of it with all a different resources bonus (Culture, science etc..)
  • All vanilla belief were renamed for grouping purpose and to blend with the added beliefs. Now when you browse them while creating a religion, you have a more organised view.
  • AI will use the new beliefs and found their own religion without problems. (even with 'Improved Customization' mod enabled)
  • Civilopedia is fully functional regarding beliefs description and infos (check screenshots)

Notes:
  • Due to their nature, Founder, Enhancer and Reformation beliefs didnt offered many editing possibilities in the XML, as they also rely on internal code to work, thus, the expansion is mainly in the Pantheon and Follower section.
  • Supports English and Italian language, Thank to Ixa1999 for Italian translation.

Compatibility:
  • Requires Brave New World Expansion.
  • There is a link to the older Gods and Kings version of this mod in the Archive, its stable and bug free, but it wont be updated anymore : Gods and Kings Version

I know this mod has been around for awhile and I've used it before. Since I built my new system steam workshop has effed all my mods. Is there any chance at all of you posting this and the improved customization mods somewhere for a manual download? TY

there are definitely some vanilla beliefs missing, such as "God of The Open Sky" which gives +1 culture to pastures. I don't have it in game as an option and I don't see it in the images either. I'd love see this updated to include options for culture and faith from tile improvements like pastures, mines, quarries, and plantations.

this removes Earth Mother from the pantheons, such a shame...I know you say this mod leaves the vanilla beliefs, but I can't seem to find it (and it hasn't been selected before)

But where is the 'pious aristocrity' belief thats shown in one of the screenshots?

I love that you're still active on Steam and haven't just abandoned this mod.

As said in the mod description, it doesnt remove original belief at all :

-Add approx. 90 beliefs, These beliefs are mostly an expand from existing beliefs for a wider choice for all beliefs type. (check screenshot)

-All vanilla belief were renamed for grouping purpose and to blend with the added beliefs. Now when you browse them while creating a religion, you have a more organised view.

I would love it if only it didn't remove the original beliefs. Too bad.

Thanks to you, you really grasped the intention behind the mod. The situation you described is exactly what this mod is made for, more choices in response to bad situation (like an unwanted starting location).

Instead of restarting your game for a better spot, you played along.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a positive comment, im really glad you enjoyed!

This is the best! I played as Vietnam and got spawned in a jungle. I think to myself "will this mod work? will i get a lot of culture?" Time passed and at the end of my game, my religion ruled over the world and i had +1000 culture per turn. Thank you great creator :higu_mion:
