Advanced Faith

Description
In this modification Player can buy Great People: such as Great Engineer, Great Scientist, Great Merchant, Great General/Admiral, Great Writer, Musician and Artist - with FAITH, early in the game. Right when you found a religion.

Personally, i don't like how Faith resource works in Civ 5. It's not fun. And it's not very useful. It's why i've made this change.

BUT
To do so you need:
- or to found a religion choosing Follower Belief "Holy Warriors"
- or follow the religion with that Belief

Such small modification, but it has great impact on gameplay, totally changing fate of Faith resource.

I was playing as Boudicca ( gains faith right from the start ), rushing for Stonehenge by chopping the forest.

I am open to any feedback, ideas, discussions. The main purpose of my modification is to make Faith more useful and fun to play.

Civilization 6 entire game Overhaul Mod coming by the end of the year. Stay tune at https://discord.gg/vpJTZvPN

Why does this have the vanilla tag?

Miss using this mod, wish it would sometime ever get an update to not get locked out of the game with the "Choose Great Person" option mentioned in older comments :(

Caused me a gamebreaking bug where I would always get stuck on the "Choose Great Person" button when constructing the Leaning Tower or finishing the Liberty tree. The UI for choosing the GP wouldn't appear, so I had to reload and not contruct the LToP or get my last Liberty policy

The AI won't use their great persons and they just end up doing nothing the whole time and may even participate in wars. It doesn't seem to be compatible with the capture great persons mod by RJ815. Note:I was using this mod with only modded civilizations. I was only stuck with great prophets when choosing a great person when building the leaning tower of pisa or finishing the liberty policies.

This isn't just regular faith. it's ADVANCED faith!

Does not work with a new game. If ran with new game, when you have chosen a policy that gives a great person it does not alow you to pick a great person and game is then stuck.

Hmm I feel this a bit OP.
Great people with faith can give you insane advantage over others.
You could try lowering a little bit but not too much and maybe lower the incremental costs on more great people?

Although buying units, you should have the faith cost be as much as the hammer costs so it's actually a decent fair price. XD

Are the costs raising per buy ?
If you, could you do a mod without raising costs?

I have no idea why, mod is quite simple, will try to figure it out
