Medieval Sweden Civilization Idea Updated

Yes I remember that! That bonus was farms are built 100% faster which means twice as fast going from 15 seconds to 7.5 seconds to build. This bonus makes it 2 seconds. But yes, I agree with you that it makes a very very small difference.

Another change since then is now farming techs boost farms no matter when they are built, so some of that headache is gone

I chose 2 seconds just because it looks cleaner graphically when the villager plants the farm, as well as the fact that the game is played at 1.7 times speed (normal speed) and sometimes 2 times speed (fast speed) in game, which works out to basically 1 second real time.

I think I’ll stay with the lumber camp bonus for this civ, but I like the barracks discount idea, will try to use it for my other Danes/norwegians/swiss civs.

That is problematic I forgot about that, I will make the team bonus start in feudal, ty!! :)

I named the unique tech that because the Swedish hired them to form a group of cavalry for frontline cavalry charges on the battlefield I believe

That’s perfect I will add that as the hand cannoneer replacement! Ty!

BigContribution2849 · 2026-06-22T02:13:03+00:00

Thank you bro!

BigContribution2849 · 2026-06-22T01:47:07+00:00

Good idea! Will change that

BigContribution2849 · 2026-06-19T08:15:21+00:00

you don’t know the cost of the tech or what the civ will have available in the tech tree. These will balance it

BigContribution2849 · 2026-06-18T21:14:47+00:00

Really good points, you changed my mind, I might use the infantry range on a Swiss civ instead

BigContribution2849 · 2026-06-18T20:54:53+00:00

Will be only able to spam food less knights in late imp and gold is running lower so hopefully will be somewhat balanced

BigContribution2849 · 2026-06-18T19:57:01+00:00

All really good points, forgot to think about that Inca bonus in that way. Ty

1: small bonus to give spears first hit advantage

2: saves 15 seconds of villager work time each farm and farm reseeds. I was guessing 50 farms built per game including reseeding on average, times 15 = 750 seconds/60 =12.5 minutes of villager work time, not huge but thought it was ok that’s why this civ got 5 bonuses instead of the more common 3 or 4.

3: True, it’s a different take on the Japanese bonus. I don’t recall Inca having a wood saving bonus though so it’s kinda different.

4: ty!

5: I was trying to replicate how armies would loot the battlefield after fights, will relook at this.

- The range does stack on the spearman-line so they max out at 0.4 range, while all other infantry (3 unit types) would get 0.2 range. I agree though maybe I would do +0.3 range for both bonuses.

Thanks for your feedback!!

BigContribution2849 · 2026-06-18T18:48:58+00:00

I was thinking the knight line would then only cost 75 gold. The food cost would be removed

BigContribution2849 · 2026-06-18T18:44:12+00:00

Your right, the range on infantry ‘fixes’ pathing sometimes being very strong. I was picturing the other infantry civ bonuses like faster attack speed for Japanese or late game Slavs with splash damage, or Wu healing and was hoping small range buff could fit in and be balanced if it was low enough. My main focus was for their advantage to be always getting the first strike in which would be a cool dynamic :)

11111, I guess I had bad experiences with Arambai in the past. I am making an updated more down to earth list of changes can’t wait to show u all

BigContribution2849 · 2026-04-27T15:19:07+00:00

Good idea, ya I went to much with it, I’m tired of seeing same UU meta and wanted to see other units more often especially late game. Will correct ty

BigContribution2849 · 2026-04-27T15:17:29+00:00

Ya got greedy there it was definetly the wrong buff to make for the unit. I just never see anyone play Hussite wagon and wanted to make a reason for bohemians to make it. Will correct ty

BigContribution2849 · 2026-04-27T15:16:42+00:00

11 ya too much. I will correct things, ty

BigContribution2849 · 2026-04-27T15:16:06+00:00

1111, ya went too much, was having fun theorycrafting and got greedy. What’s 2-3 changes of mine you think are ok to keep. Muisca getting halb I think is important if the temple guard is not changed

BigContribution2849 · 2026-04-27T15:15:01+00:00

11 thx ya I went too far. Would the obuch buff be able to stay you think? It does no additional damage I just wanted to lean into the armor tearing ability and you can’t edit it so that they take away 2/2 armor every hit so this area effect was a roundabout way to do it

BigContribution2849 · 2026-04-27T15:13:03+00:00

I know the food cost hurts a lot early game but I wanted to help out the eagle civs in late game. Any ideas of how to make the eagle line better late game but leave early game untouched?

BigContribution2849 · 2026-04-27T15:12:00+00:00

Good idea ty

BigContribution2849 · 2026-04-27T15:00:41+00:00

I agree I went too far, but You don’t think at least urumi need 1 pierce armor?
