A meme from the community content page showed this mod so now I am here. Great Civ overall. Now if only I hadn't need to rework the UA ability to balance it out with the Great Global Person counter mod. But thats a me problem.

@Max - I'm glad you're having fun with the mod! :3
Don't worry, the Engineer boost is there! I had to do it with Lua instead of XML like the others.

Fun mod! I just noticed an error; in your xml file, you only give scientists and generals the 25% boost. Engineers are left out.

They're definitely powerful enough already, but thematically, I think it'd make sense to include Banana in the food bonus. Bananas are berries, after all.

great mod, I loved it

@Karatekid1717 To be fair, Acken's Mod has a whole bunch of stuff that it overhauls, including some tile yields and strategic AI - it gets hard to balance a mod when it's combined with other mods, so I wouldn't fuss it too much. Still a pretty fun mod, even if the uniques are a bit passive.

@Voice of Reason: In which ways does that mod alter the AI's tech rate and growth rate? I played with the Botonist Lab's yields to make sure they weren't overpowered (which is why it doesn't grant Food to Bananas). Did the AI spawn a lot of Engineers?

You've made a very well done mod! Heck, I didn't know you have Pikmin music playing when playing as him stead of listening to the Civ V soundtrack! :3

CORRECTION: On Acken's mod Difficulty 5, the koppaites were 10 techs ahead of everyone else - they were still remarkably friendly and easy to bribe, but actually grew unbelievably fast. More testing will have to be done.

An interesting civ, although the music does get a little old after a while. The dialogue on Charlie is amazing, he's not a particularly dangerous AI and he's very easily bribed into attacking other civs so he's a pet favorite to have around. The uniques do tend to be a bit subtle because you don't get that many Great Engineers and the Botanist's Lab needs setup to really shine, but they're nice to have around. Superscout SPERO is also nice, but not gamebreaking - good for keeping an eye on the neighbouring warmonger or flying in to capture weakend cities.
Overall, the Koppaites sit around the middle of the power curve. Although the uniques aren't especially noteworthy it's a very fun AI to play with, or against - give them a go!

Gucci, glad you like it! :D

I love this mod, good work, love all the pikmin music :D

It spawns in Japan's general area.

where does this civ spawn in Ynaemp maps?

Go to the mods section of Civ V in the menu, that should trigger the download. Though sometimes it may take a few tries.

Could you give a direct download link please? This mod seems interesting, but I can't download it.

No problem, I'm happy to lend a hand! :D

Thank you! xD I'll play around with the SPERO a bit and I'll probably add to the production cost. Thanks for the suggestion! :D

So, I've started playing w/ this mod, & it's pretty good. But, if you don't mind the suggestion, maybe the SPERO could be a little more expensive than the scout, seeing as how it's a machine & must be manufactured, whereas a group of people just need a bit of training & food... Other than that, exellent mod, sir! XD

Alrighty, let me know how your adventures with Charlie go! xD

sweet... just need a wii-u lol & i may as well read the wiki & shit & get the mod... because, you know, why not XD besides, it would be kinda dumb for them to remove him lol!

He isn't gone, don't worry! :P If you don't mind spoilers, you can read the game's story on the Pikmin wiki and see how he's involved!

@Karatekid1717

Ok, cool beans :P lol just hope olimar isn't completely gone from the 3rd pikmin

Don't worry, Seth, Olimar will be made eventually. :P

WHAT THE FLYING FUCK???? "Charlie"?!?! What the hell happened to OLIMAR?!
I am thoroughly disgusted.........

Wait, how is this compatable with Y(n)AEMP? Where does he start?

so, if the spero upgrades into a comp bowman from a ruin, does it keep its 3 movement? that was the most dissappointing part of the 3rd and 4th UC mod with inca for their scout replacement for me.
great looking mod btw. should enjoy playing it tonight.

The moment i saw Charlie i subcribed.

Charlie is quite entertaining, the shit that you made him say was rather funny! I have no idea if you want him to actually aim on capturing just about everything in his wake, but he is definitely one for doing that. He tried going to war with me in the very beginning, it didn't work for him though so he then decided to be my bff, so him, The Aztecs, and I have a solid allience, though I feel like his love of capturing city states would be a lot easier to make sense of if I played more of Pikmin three. :P

This is SO cool! Thank you SO much for the mod! I am a HUGE Pikmin fan!

Seems really funny, but I think the Drake logo is a little off center. I would download if you could fix that. ;P
