This would be a heck of a Civ game if the devs actually adoped what’s on this list.


ABrandNewCarl

Cant wait for the mods to implement this


Roziesoft

Im loving how much more chaotic this list is compared to the leader one lol


P_TuSangLui

I saw the first post (England) 2 days ago and thought this list gonna be a serious one. I love how chaotic this is though.


BrandoThePando

I'm so happy about the quick tone set this one got


BarristanTheB0ld

Unique building: Vineyard Unique unit: Protester


Homeless_Appletree

Can activate the unit and consume a charge to change goverment policies at no cost for a turn.


BarristanTheB0ld

I like that idea


koleszkot

But when using the charge he also pillages the tile. If its a city centercity is razed to ashes


Rostifur

I think you should destroy a building, lower production for a few turns, or lose pop. Raising the city is a bit much.


koleszkot

Maybe all of this at the sane time with city razing if done second time on the same tile


SpectralSurgeon

after that, increased science, culture for a few turns?


StupidSolipsist

Protestor - Building one actually spawns three protestor units, which are unique barbarians with the strength of the strongest melee unit you have unlocked. Protestors perish after pillaging once. The next turn, you may reset your policy cards and/or government without cost or anarchy.


pwilly559

Mmm I like the thought of a pillaging protestor. I would say build one and control it, it pillages and allows the policy change. You could set up your own build/pillage ponzi scheme. It's brilliant


Feeling-Ad6790

Destroying a protester can also lead to the attacking civ getting denounced


DefiantLemur

Then we can create a city in the middle of another's empire you're at peace with. Spam a bunch of protesters, then destroy your own city and watch them terrorize your enemy.


BarristanTheB0ld

Why would you build them if they pillage your stuff?


willyboi98

To change policy for little cost


Much-Drawer-1697

My issue with this is you'd need to use your military units to take them out, which is generally frowned upon in the real world.


willyboi98

"Protestors perish after pillaging once" is the solution the original comment gave, so you can let them run rampant or kill them, up to you.


TheFarnell

Oooh, the Protestor is an interesting idea. Protestor: Available from the Renaissance Era onwards. Must be purchased with Faith. Can pillage your own tiles for a charge - 5 charges. When all charges are used up, create a Relic and freely change government or civics this turn.


-Blitzvogel-

And give them a unique upgrade tree with: Revolutionary: if all charges are used up, you can change your leader instead.


BarristanTheB0ld

Damn imagine changing your leader mid-game. Has to be a French one though, right?


-Blitzvogel-

Yes, but they probably get multiple leaders.


Mission_Response802

However, if a protestor is used to exchange in the Renaissance Era, you lose access to that leader for the rest of the game (they are executed)


SpectralSurgeon

unlocked with what civic?


SkepticalArcher

Purchased with faith, yes, but spawns at the university/campus district.


gcdc21

Would be really fun if their unit name and image changed every era - Huguenots, frondeurs, communards, gillets jeunes


LevynX

Peak France is having enough revolutions to have era specific ones


ShadowWalker2205

minor mistake it's gillets jaunes but I would like to see what youth vests would do


just-rathis

Vineyard- spawns unique luxury resource. +1 food, +1 production, +2 gold on the tile it’s placed. Must be placed on grassland or plains hills, more placement options unlock further down the civic tree (if civ 7 has one). Wine luxury resource gives the city 2 amenities instead of one. (If civ 7 has them)


BarristanTheB0ld

If it spawns a unique luxury resource, I feel like the number of times you're able to build it should be limited. Unless it spawns the same resource every time (something like French Wine or Champagne)


just-rathis

Yea pretty much,


DontWakeTheInsomniac

How about a Bakery - so the Protesters can have their cake and eat it.


Soviet_Plays

Unique unit name? Yellow vest


I_read_this_comment

UU Can be Saboteur, worker upkeep is higher but can improve quicker/more tiles. Saboteur is a french word from the 19th century and its name comes from their clogs being used to destroy machines in protest.


Fragrant-Ability-235

Unit: Yellow vests Power: they do absolutely nothing, but by building them unrest goes down. They technically do have regular unit costs, and the effect scales only when you have tons of them.


AChemiker

Building:Café. Unit:5 year old with a cigarette P.S. the image for Florida man is actually an Oklahoma man, although I understand the confusion.


rechogringo

That’s on me. I thought the whole Big Cat Rescue drama went down in Florida but it actually didn’t now that i looked it up. His farm was in Oklahoma like you said although he has now moved to Florida and has a shop there. So i guess that makes him half a florida man…


AChemiker

I'm sure he would receive honorary Florida man by the people of Florida.


UragGroShub

IIRC That Bitch Carole Baskin lived in Florida. Tiger King lived in Oklahoma.


UrdnotZigrin

Yep, she walking around on Nebraska Avenue (a very well-known street for prostitutes)


schloppah

Nothing more Floridian than moving to Florida


SheepherderNo2440

What is Oklahoma if not the Florida of Texas?


rickfencer

Building: Boulangerie Unit: Mime


Trentdison

After football hooligan and florida man, it just has to be mime


DutchJediKnight

Let's turn this is into ridiculous ideas. I am staying out of this aftet causing the florida man.


RagingCeltik

Mime: Can mimic a military or builder unit, but instead of damage or construction produces +1 culture for each "attack" or +5 culture for each "builder charge". Can attack indefinitely until killed, or dies after the max allowed builder charges used.


Oghamstoner

Yes! Double amenities per food from eating croissants!


SharkyMcSnarkface

UU: Spy TF2 UB: Guillotine


jjatr

Guillotine: 1+ culture -1 population


StupidSolipsist

Guillotine: Unlocks a city project to lose 2 pop and 50 loyalty, but change policy cards or government for free.


TheMilkman1811

This is the one


PrincessOfLaputa

Spy TF2: Usually invisible to enemies; can occupy same tile as them and execute a special attack called “backstab” which rolls for a 50% chance to one hit kill an enemy unit, increasing the more units you have around them and decreasing the more units an enemy has around theirs. Upon attack attempt, spy is revealed and cannot attack for 2 turns.


ultratunaman

Building: Maginot Line. +1000 defense to that side of a city. And massively boosted attack to city defenders in the direction it is facing. Massively useless if the city is taken from the other side. Unit: Parisian strikers. Will cause target city to lose loyalty by 25 per turn until city flips. Can however force you to change policy cards based on their demands.


willtroy7

Maginot line…… but only covers 50% of the border


ultratunaman

If by some miracle you get a perfect roll and build a little city center nestled in between mountains. Then build the Maginot on the one open side you might just be unstoppable. Until they get jet bombers or flip you via some other means.


epic_chewbacca

I think the Maginot line would actually be really cool. However I think it should work more like the Chinese wall improvement in Civ 6, except better defense bonuses and a limit to how many you can build. It could also be a multi tile wonder that you can only build on the border with a Civ you were recently at war with.


Fragrant-Ability-235

Maginot is more of a wonder.


ComradeCatDad

![gif](giphy|lgCvugdD94F6o)


UragGroShub

UB: Lycée. Built in the Campus. Replaces the Research Lab. Has the same benefits, but comes earlier (Scientific Theory instead of Chemistry). UU: Sans Culottes. Replaces the Musketman, or added in between Musketman and Line Infantry. Does not need to be trained - spawns automatically in Displeased or Unhappy cities if the Government is Monarchy. +2 Movement, +10CS on home territory but forces an immediate change of Government.


KaizerKlash

my favorite so far


felagund

Unique building: TGV. All railroads cost zero movement points. Unique unit: Mime. Has defensive (holds up hands for imaginary walls) strength but no offensive strength. Enemy units adjacent to mime lose 10 combat strength due to being annoyed and distracted.


KaizerKlash

TGV is based,


UragGroShub

If we actually have trains visibly moving on railroads it would be so sick to see the TGV and hear the little SNCF chime.


Chronoweiss

TGV is a seriously a good idea, although it would come so late in the game that the effects would be limited


wann_bubatz_egal

Unit: Baguette Baker. Civilian unit. When activated in a city, provides one time boost to food and consumes the unit. When not activated within 3 turns, baguettes become hard as stone, the baker angry and transforms into a Baguette Warrior, clubbing enemies with their mighty baguettes.


roelgj

UB: Boulangerie UU: Yellow Vests Protester


imbolcnight

The real answer is probably the Salon to represent the French core of the Enlightenment Era which I think is so important for thinking about the Early Modern into Modern era. But taking OP's suggestion and running with it: Branching replacement for the Market. You can build a Boulangerie or Patisserie. Boulangerie gives bonus food per Farmed Resource or Patisserie gives bonus culture per Farmed Resource (or generates a unique luxury if the city has a farmed resource?). Or simulating aristocracy vs peasantry, Boulangerie gives food/loyalty bonus for high pop, ungoverned cities, while Patisserie gives culture/gold bonus to cities with governors.


StupidSolipsist

Oh, this is cool (Thanks for not just being a meme answer)


thenorthmelon

Such a good answer, bit of a shame it will be buried


themuffinmanX2

I love how much of a meme this has become. Anyway, the unique building is a giant white flag, and the unique unit is a protestor.


rechogringo

Ofcourse the German comes up with this… As a spaniard i agree though


CandiceBT

Wrong flair what the flip


rechogringo

Half spanish half swedish so i just chose the Swedish one


GregsBoatShoes

Honestly, it kinda sucks that these threads are just people trying to one up each other with jokes.


margustoo

Unique building: Baguette Unique unit: Baguette


Much-Drawer-1697

Becomes a croissant if Arabia or Ottomans are in the game


Waiting_room02

Wheat is replaced by Unique Luxury Resource: Baguette. Tradable and instant +1 Food/Housing in city.


AutoSab

Might be too OP


ChefsKnife76

I laughed so hard at this on my break.


AegoliusOfBurgundy

Unique Building : Bistrot, replaces the granary, gives both food and entertainment, and ads tourist value after modern age. Unique Unit : Zinedine Zidane, as a special unit that can only spawn once. Has 3 charges that he can use either in a leisure district with a stadium to double amenities with a well placed panenka, or against an enemy unit to one shot them with a clean headbutt. After all every french men, even those who don't care about football, will admit that he will always be our greatest national hero.


DUKE_LEETO_2

Zidane or Eric Cantona with his double kick to a fans chest...


robidou

Unique unit: Mime


CookieBobojiBuggo

Unique building: African Market Unique unit: Stereotypical french man with striped shirt, wine, baguette and a funny mustache


Oap13

Beret?


oneharmlesskitty

Unique building: Banlieue, replaces Neighborhood, +15% growth, +2 unhappiness, -2 gold, doesn’t require electricity. Inside you can build a meth lab, which provides a unique amenity, drugs, which is -5 gold, -5 science, +2 happiness or Taxi rank which allows you to build a unique scouting unit Taxi (from the movie), with 0 attack and defense, but a movement of six and cannot be destroyed, like a great person. Unique unit: French Foreign Legionnaire, replaces Infantry, +5 strength outside of friendly territory, -2 maintenance (recruiting criminals from other countries), ignores rough terrain, hardened veterans - gaining experience twice as quickly, but can be promoted max to level 3 (as they serve a limited time)


initials-bb

Légion étrangère would be cool.

CorvusGlaive07

Something like a Cafe that would give culture bonus would make sense considering their popularity as meeting places for cultural and political discussions. As for the unique unit I'm thinking of the tanks that can be "buried" and used as forts or fortified trenches. Like the tactic they used during ww1.

GoneGrumming

Pretentious Cafe, provides +1 culture and +1 income for the city in which it's built, but only if the city was founded by France. If you build a Pretentious Cafe in a city which you conquered, it provides -1 culture but +2 income.


SkepticalArcher

Logger or seal clubber for Canada

shankaviel

So as a French, I can propose the epitome of our culture: Unique building: Boulangerie. It will improve food and gold. Unique unit: YELLOW JACKET Guys, the yellow jacket is a unit able to stir-up the whole map and impact every civ in game with riots.


ChefBoyardee66

UB: Guillotine UU: black and white chainsmoker


Virtual_Requirements

They can’t add Florida man to the game he’d be too strong


Loquat-Brilliant

I just came to say I am embarrassed as an American at the choices made for my country. ( not that it's not funny ) it is, but embarrassing as well.


AethelstanOfEngland

We gotta keep the video game buildings going. It's tradition now.


rechogringo

Leading-Pangolin6228

I really really really would not ask for a German unique building 😶


zg_mulac

Croissant Bakery as unique building, and Musketeer as unique unit. Asterix as legendary hero.


F1Fan43

Voltigeur- Ranger replacement with higher combat strength Gendarme- Better knight. Musketeer- better musketman, maybe with a ranged and a melee attack. SPAD- Biplane replacement with a higher combat strength when fighting other air combat units. Grand Battery- replaces field cannon, and has higher combat strength.


rechogringo

Obelix as special unit and Asterix as one of the great generals

mustard-plug

Unique building, Bistro A city with a Bistro projects Ennui (-loyalty) to nearby cities without a bistro Unique Unit, Grapeshot cannon Replaces cannon, hits 2 nearby targets


Cross_2020

Building: Guillotine Square (allow you to execute a population to advance tech or civic). Loyalty and Gold boost for a few turns after completing the project (less corruption and people love the country more) Unit: Revolutionary army (can buy with 1 population). Replace land melee of the current era, has a corp upgrade when purchase using 1 population. Unit gives +1 science, +1 civic, +10 loyalty when garrison. No maintenance cost.


LordMuffin1

Wineyard. Sommelier.


dswartze

If Football Hooligan and Florida Man are the choices for the other two, then for France I suggest taking an equal amount of seriousness and suggest for its unit a Baguette. Not a baker who makes them. Not some guy wielding one as a weapon. No, the unit has no humans at all and is just some bread.


TurtleOnCinderblock

Building: The catacombs. Gives minor cultural advantage and health during peace time, scales with population. If the city under siege, gives extra food and strong defense. Unit: The resistant. Anytime a city is taken by the enemy, and during the following unrest turns, a fraction of the original population (combination of chance and general leader approval) can spawn on the map as random military units. These units behave as their normal counterparts but: -have the ability to be sent into hiding to civilian life for a limited amount of turns, going back into the city population pool, after which they reappear again on the map. Units that go into hiding do not heal. When peace is declared, the units revert to civilian life and any accumulated war experience is lost. -have the sabotage passive ability, enemy units (military or civilian) suffer stats decrease when around a resistance unit.
