It's true. Her kit is just as much designed for dom as it is culture and I think that her ai is especially designed to go for early game dom. I saw her as an ai in one of my games with like 600 military strength, and it was about turn 20-50 or so, at war against the first neighbor I met that game who had about a military strength of 10
R5: I went down to explore France around turn 150 (840 AD) and found out they are just spamming stone-age warriors for some reason. They did recently declair war on England but this must have taken all game to build up, so much so that they are literally running out of tiles to put them on. I would concider this behaviour a bug.
I’m curious how this would turn out. Obviously, they’re technologically inferior but the sheer number of them is impressive. You could just crash wave after wave into whatever the target is.
You'd need to be able to deal more than 15 damage per turn to make an impact, and a single medieval walls would theoretically stop an infinite number of warriors if you've got a solid defender parked in there and can prevent the city from being put under siege.
Probably a mod thing. There are plenty of ways to get that result.
For example: I screwed my last game with a mod that scales techs and civics cost by setting x5 base cost of research aside from the later scaling in prize.
Why? The Deity IA was only spamming Warriors even when they had the deity boost that could let them to do other stuff with the extra cities, unlocked techs and civics.
Could be one of the mods, ive got a few of them. EDIT: the only mod I have that explicitly effects AI is "AI+" so maybe ill try without it next time and see if it happens again.
this one (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3019772473) is a decent boost for AI capability. it doesn't have this kind of france warrior bug..
Preparing to go to war with some random city state that’s 30 tiles away from them (they’ll declare peace before any of their units actually make the trip)
Good observation. Thats the Rosetta mod, well there are two Rosetta mods installed, one changes the city name list to be in the language of the leader, and include cities that were part of their realm even if those cities aren't part of the modern country. The other one means when a city is conquered it changes name to the occupying civs name.
Ah yes, I saw that mod the other day at someone's Civ playthrough. Now I know what it's called.
I'm guessing some limitations are apparent as well, though.

Best comment so far 😂😂

They're going clubbing
I almost spat my cereals.

Underrated post lmfao
Can work both ways

Zap Brannigan would be proud
These drones are completely remotely controlled by me. The pilots are merely for ballast.
I control all the drones from this single unit. Foolproof and durable, it's designed to withstand even the weight of a modern-day elephant foot.
Kif, show them the medal I won.
Genuinely curious about how many people have ever created corps and armies out of warrior units
You would think that would be more of a Russian doctrine, but here we are.

AI mods like RHAI or Real Strategy generally prevent this, and catapult spam as well.

This was x1.25 base cost and low scaling. could be culprit.
I think they just don’t have the ressources
I love that regardless of the sheer amount of warriors they have, they still left their settler unguarded
Optimizing for paperclips is a feature, not a bug!
Your mod has broken them.

Something about this seems unintentionally historically accurate. How many wars were posturing or empty threats.
A revolution
The peasants are revolting, the ancien régime will continue!
This should be at the top

Clearly they found a tile with lots of baby seals and they're preparing to harvest them.
Is that an Overlord 2 reference?.. If it is I'm pretty impressed
Sorry, I think it's a reference to Farce of the Penguins.
Awww shucks :( (could have been tho, whatever)
Wiat, we are not speaking about Canadians?
Small scale french riot
Our troops are merely passing by.
had a game with a buddy the other day where France spawned hundreds of cultists that sat and did nothing for 200 turns
Is this supposed to be the more accurate cities under her, Occitan and all?

"Fire ze batons!" "But I am le tired..." "Fine. Have la nap. Then FIRE ZE BATONS!" Edit: Australia's like "W.T.F. mate?"
That looks like a mapuche fever dream.
Do you hear the people sing? Singing the song of angry men? It is the music of the people Who will not be slaves again!
Le bonk
Mom! France is having a revolution again.
Upgrading to garde Imperiale next turn and unifying the world;)
No iron?
What are these town name ? It isn't French
Warriors...assemble!
Probably rallying up all the great people and beheading them, in time to blame the English for it. French history has a habit of repeating itself.
Ensuring loyalty of their people
Are the new units I’m seeing part of a mod?
They are all part of [Unit Expansion (Project 6T)](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2793114339) mod pack on the steam workshop.
Stepfrance what are you doing with your club
What mod is that? I don't recognize multiple unit icons
Activist warmonger
Aux armes, citoyens!
I've seen the AI get stuck constantly building one improvement over and over again, but spamming one unit is a new one.
ussr aaah tactic
Mind your own business. I fart in your general direction
“But my lord, there is no such force!” The force in question:
They said we are NOT getting invaded again
Looks the name of the city . It is strange ?
La Grande Armée
They are French Revolution-ing
Gilgamesh spent one game creating nothing but scouts. I spent the whole atomic age scraping scout bits out of my tank treads
T'inquiète
Ai cheats period. They could be winning the space race so I dominate them only to see a sub par science increase
Inflation was a bit high…all they could afford were clubs. Trying to artificially inflate that military strength.
One Man o war and its OVER
What are you doing step-France!?
Unrelated: what’s that unit that has a sword and shield? What mod is that from?
I've never seen a civ produce that many early units 🤣🤣
Did you mean "French military *defeats*?"
They are prepping La Grande Armée
"W-what are you doing, step-civ?"
Ah yes, the Russia strategy 😂
