Improved Norway

Description
This mod buffs Norway while leaving Harald's leader bonuses unchanged.

Deepwater navigation is moved from Shipbuilding to Sailing allowing Norway earlier ocean access.

Berserker is moved from Military Tactics (Medieval tech) to Military Training (Classical civic), his cost is reduced from 160 to 70 production, his attack bonus is 8 (instead of 10), and his defense bonus is -4 (instead of -5). His maintenance is 1 instead of 3. This makes it possible to build him in the same era as a swordsman, he is quicker to make, cheaper to maintain, and stronger when attacking.

The Stave church gets a +1 production bonus from adjacent woods and lumber mills. It is otherwise unchanged. This gives Norway a bonus even for cities that are not on the coast and makes their holy sites provide a greater advantage to your nation.

Our goal was to make Norway a bit more competitive and fun to play. We know the deepwater navigation part is not entirely historically accurate. However, we think it fits in the context of this game which has other and far more wildly inaccurate features (the Maori nation's bonuses spring to mind).

If only you added "Can raid enemies without declaring war and units can be attacked in enemy territory like they were at war?" Thus you could raid, but there'd be counterplay and you couldn't take cities.

How about declaring a raid, instead of declaring war? You can raid people by declaring raid, and it won't be as war like as declaring war. And you can raid people without declaring war.

Can starting bias be dialed to the absolute maximum? I keep getting Rainforest and plains with Norway.

Nevermind, I think I loaded the mod incorrectly

Does not work, it seems. At least the Berserker is still in Military Tactics

This mod is broken with the most recent patch, I believe.

Norway is already the best Civ in the current patch, bonusing the most OP Civ makes no sense.

Never mind gave it another go and it all works maybe it was just civ 6, looking forward to trying out a more balanced Norway

Hi General Profit, we both have Gathering Storm installed, and we've never used this mod without it. If the mod is not working for you, it is for a reason other than that you are playing with Gathering Storm.

Doesn't seem to be working with GS (might be a conflict of mods on my part though), using zee's mods and YnAMP - Yet (not) Another Maps Pack
