Matt's Civs: Sikh Empire

A bastion of tolerance and religious freedom, nestled in a region steeped with strife, the Sikh Empire emerged as a fledgling rebellion against the Mughals, and made itself known: conquering Lahore and Delhi, and founding a multicultural, multi-religious Empire in the Punjab.

Found a Religion in the modern age, and complete the Modern World's Fair Legacy Path by converting your own cities.

Train Jathas and have them stay at home: engaging in Seva and improving the productivity of your people.

IMPORTANT You gain relics by converting your own cities. This means they must be controlled by you, and cities not towns, at the moment you convert them.



FEATURES

• New Civilization: Adds a new Civilization representing the Sikh Empire, themed on the founding of one of the world's most recent major religions, and that religion's tolerance and eschewance of poselytism.
  
• Unique Civic Tree: A unique Civic Tree that guides you on that journey, from the first poetry, to the compilation of the Guru Granth Sahib.
  
• Unique Alternate Legacy Path: Instead of training Explorers and uncovering artifacts, create new holy Relics by spreading Sikhism within your Empire.
  
• Unique Quarter: Develop cities into centres of Sikh Administration - Takhts - by building Gurdwaras and Sarovars.
  
• Unique Military Unit: Boost your cities' yields by stationing Jatha units at home.
  
• New Culture Golden Age Cards: Cultural Golden Ages on transition from Exploration to Modern now turn your Temples into Grand Temples: retaining adjacencies, yields, and (importantly) their great work slots.
  
  • This is part of a workaround so that new Religions can be founded in Modern: existing religions are removed on age transition.
    
  • IMPORTANT: This workaround also means only one religion may be founded in Modern. This means multiple players playing the Sikh Empire at once are not supported. Only one player may be the Sikh Empire for the ability to work.

COMPATIBILITY NOTES

• Not compatible with Tomatekh's Historical Religions VII! Sorry.
  
• Unlikely to be compatible with anything that changes how Religion works.
