[DEPRECATED] Olympic Pantheons

Balanced?
What are your thoughts on which Olympic Pantheons are too weak, too strong?

I'm kind of feeling that Helios is strong (+1 food, +2 production, +1 gold on deserts), especially since you don't have to improve the desert tiles. To get the bonuses from, say, Apollo, you have to use builders to make pastures. With Helios, you get get the bonuses without builders.

Also, what do you think about Ares? Is 400 faith too strong, or not strong enough?

Ares, Hades and Poseidon panths feels kinda excessive, compared to the remaining ones

I feel Hera is ridiculous weak compared to others.
Like the Tundra thing which makes the Tundra Tiles with Peter super useful.

I'm starting to lean your direction, FZ.

But, for what it's worth, here was my thought process:

-Pantheons for terrain (e.g Hestia, Hera) have to have lesser yields than Pantheons for improvements (e.g. Apollo, Artemis) because you get those yields without making builders

-Terrains were designed to be in the 4-5 range with the pantheon. A jungle on a hill is already 2 food and 2 production (without a mine or anything). Tundra hill is 1 food, 1 production. Desert hill is 1 production only.

- The Chichen Itza could make jungles insane if Hera's yield is too large.


What do you suggest for a fix?

I see the point but atleast I would rather pick one of those plantationbuffs instead because I see more value in it.
With Gathering Storm and maybe the Maori it changes a lot so it is hard to tell.

But Im playing as Peter from Russia right now and I got that tundra pantheon: Tundra Forrest gives me 3 Food, 3 Production, 2 Faith and when you have that religionsystem a little in mind you can add to the tiles surrounding tiles another like 2 Production which make Tundra insane strong with him. I guess the same kinda goes with John Curtin and the Desert Pantheon, if you combine that with the unique improvement of Australia and maybe some cattle or sheep if you are lucky, then you can have some pretty badass desert cities as well. With Gitarja and her Kampungs Id pick that Ocean Pantheon and (I guess from another mod) the Poseidonium whch will make her so strong with these small islands etc.

My idea is really to make it so you have lake +2 Faith or +1 Production and +1 Faith or even maybe +1 Food or Gold. Just to make it a little versatile(and better compared to the usual +1 culture). Not sure if it is possible but if maybe you could make it that dont get an immediate buff but a unique improvement for jungle which then gives you a combined +2 yield and later in the game you get two times another +1 buff for tiles with that improvement.

Dionysius? a HUNDRED amenities from some stuff? Is that a typo? That seems incredibly OP

Not a typo. With Dionysus, those resources allow you to forget about amenities in that city. But with Hera you can forget about Loyalty in all your cities...
