Default Re: Conquest Mod (Under Development)

A Theocracy should have -10 in research, not +10. New ideas threaten the rule of the church (or whatever), and are suppressed. There is a plethora of evidence for this throughout history. Why do you think the Fundamentalism government in Civ 2 gets -50% to tech advancements? Also, their people would be happier, as they are closer to the gods than others are and all. Also, I'd give them massive bonuses to ground combat, as you can't get any better than fanatical troops willing to die for no reason, just cause you ask them to.

Also, why does a Republic get -5 to combat, and Democracy gets +5? What is the reasoning behind that?
