[Q]

According to the screen shots this might already been implemented:

- keep the race culture as it is in SE IV: a modifier that you select at the game setup and will remain. You still can edit the culture.txt file during the game if you want as I do for the AI. I use this instead of the AI bonus.
- the new government type: a modifier that you choose at the game setup, but every player can change it during the game as he wants! If your production is critically low you might change to a government type that gives you here a bonus (but has disadvantages in other fields). Later you might switch to a government type that gives you a better bonus in combat but has lower production bonus.
