I'm going to start a new faction. The basic idea was is a cross between the Believers and the Spartans.
Based out of setters from Europe and called the Templars. I was thinking something like this for abilities.
Robust Effic
Immunity Fundamentalism
++Morale
+Support
immunity to mind control
something like
-growth
-economy
+200% Probe costs
What do you guys think?

I think you mean Impunity to fundamentalism.Quote++Morale
+Support

-growth

What do you guys think?
++MORALE means that they can't reach max MORALE without Power (or Thought Control), but with Power (or TC) don't get the bonus for Fundamentalism. Better to have +MORALE and Fanatic.
A huge increase to probe costs also doesn't work so well with fundamentalism.
What tech would they start with?
I was going to make my own version of a Fundamentalist faction.
Besides the Spartans and the Believers really aren't that close.

Bear in mind I have my own personal mod. I altered Fundamentalism extensively.
As far as Tech I'm honestly not sure.
What does your mod look like?
QuoteWhat does your mod look like?
Its mostly little changes to the governments. I'm always fiddling with it.
Currently Its
Police ++Police ++Probe -EFFIC
Democracy ++Support +Morale - Research
Fundamentalist ++EFFIC ++GROWTH -Probe -Police
What does your mod look like?
I'm wondering how you justify Democracy having a support bonus or a research penalty...
And how does fundamentalist get a penalty to probe and police?

Democracy having a penalty to research? Thats easy. Democracy is simply an early version
of thought control. Controlling the masses by letting think they have a voice. The problem is it only works
with an population of sheep. This type of two party "Democracy" is exactly what the founding fathers warned us about.
Fundamentalism (should be called a Republic) pretty much gets out the peoples way and lets them find their
own prosperity. The penalty is of course a loss of security and control.
All governments attempt to control the masses in some way; in order to justify a RESEARCH penalty you'd need something that quashes research more than the other approaches.
So then that's not fundamentalism at all, by any stretch, but rather a different government you're using instead of fundamentalism...The USA pretty much was a fundamentalist country for the first half of its history, most of it really.
Democracy controls the masses by dumbing them down. I'm old enough to have seen the last vestiges of our republic before it became a democracy. Before our schools became marxist indoctrination centers and nearly every kid coming out of them sounds like a leftist robot. Most of them cant think. I'm not even joking. They aren't taught to think rationally they are trained to feel.Where's that? Sounds like eastern Europe...

Just go into the state constitutions (where all the real power was supposed to be) many of them openly
said you had to be a white Christian Protestant to even hold office.
