Does anyone know any good games where you kill fascist CIA and US army scum? Ideally as a Marxist-Leninist freedom fighter or as a soldier of a socialist country. Otherwise, games where you fight US puppets like Israel as say a Palestinian freedom fighter are also more than welcome.
Out of curiosity, why? I haven't played it mind you
Has a really good mood (RevDCM) that makes the game more dynamic by introducing civil wars, revolutions and the ability of new civilizations to organize out of "barbarians."
Similar mods for other civs always feel less full featured.
Mechanically, I also came to dislike some stuff in later civ games, or at least some stuff "lost it's shine". Like 1 unit per tile.
I kinda thought that the system of combining units in in civ v was a bit of an improvement on the "stacks of doom", all told.
Was combining units an expansion? When I played it was only 1 military unit plus 1 civilian unit per tile (and up to four aerial units iirc).
I thought the tactics could be fun, but I prefer the management aspects of civ and it got kinda exhausting moving large militaries.
Stacks of doom also have big issues tho, ngl.
Different topic: Another mechanic civ4 came kinda close to getting right was corporations (since they theoretically encouraged hogging/expropriating resources far in excess of what your civ needs), but I don't think they quite worked out as well in practice. Not sure if there's a good mod for that.
Thanks!
If you only want to play vanilla or some light workshop mods i prefer Civ 6, communism is OP there and there are some decent USSR mods on steam
if you're into total conversions, nothing can beat Civ 4, some of the mods are incredible, my favourite is the Dune mod which is actually the best Dune game ever made.
Also nostalgia, Civ 4 is the last one with squares and not hexes and the classic looks of map and interface.
The Peoples Republic of China lead by Deng Xiaoping mod for Civ 6 is also great, though probably a bit OP. I think its not on steam workshop anymore but you can find download online
Better than the old Battle for Arrakis? I don't believe it!
I never liked Dune 2, imo best Dune games are in order: Mod for Civ 4, Dune 1, Emperor: Battle for Dune, Dune: Spice Wars.
