Description
※ Can create a religion with GDR After the information era. And can use them to reverse your opponent's religion.


(USELESS) LORE QUOTES
As I left the Protectorate, I discovered to my astonishment that I no longer cared about Kavitha Thakur's actual age. I was willing to accept that she was 200 years old, because I wanted the Prophet's Work to continue. I wanted more than anything for the Protectorate to hum and bustle with life, its head in the stars already as its feet dance in the toxic dust of this world. I did not expect to love Kavitha Thakur. Dear reader: I am shaken, I am shaken, I am shaken. --Diogenes Hitchens
Although great religions are already rife among us, can we completely rule out the possibility of a new religion after the 'Great Mistake'? and The gigantic battle mech that survived nuclear war is worthy of adoration.


The Machine Prophet: Founding of Religion After the Information Era
Systematically it's very simple. Your Giant Death Robot can do Found Religion that only the Great Prophet could. You Don't even need to accumulate Great Prophet scores. Researching robotics technology, Build GDR. And transport this great machine god to the Holy Site District.

This revives the religion system that was completely locked out after the original industrial era (as the Great Prophet no longer exists and therefore cannot be hired), allowing you to create and spread religion even if you start the game after the industrial era.

Of course you can achieve religious victories (provided you can prevent cultural victories or science victories, and diplomatic victories and conquest victories).

+@ You can't put the Giant Death Robot into a religious war. This signature war machine can only ' Found religion', and humans must be responsible for spreading it.


Resurrect Your Religion or Tramp Your Opponent's Religion with GDR
Do not despair of a religion that has disappeared centuries ago by a wave of missionaries and apostles from the other side. Don't wait for the 'Hallyu' and Religious Rock bands to come when you don't know. The Giant Machine God who your spokesperson always remembers the religion you founded and will destroy the other religions both materially and mentally.

Systematically, GDR is now capable of 'rock concerts'. This feature, which can only be activated on Holy Sites of other civilizations, works just like a rock band with a Religious Rock promotion. In summary, the city where GDR descended as a machine god will be converted to your religion, and GDR will disappear with a certain probability or have a random promotion. (regardless of whether or not you have the corresponding future tech)

However, the GDR is not only a combat unit, but also an incredibly huge battle mech that can overcome nuclear weapons. So, unlike rock bands, in order to enter the territory of the other side, you must either risk the Totol war or open their borders through diplomacy.

WIP
● Currently, the functionality of this mod gives human players a one-sided advantage. Because AI leaders don't know that GDR can create a religion (even starting after info Era). I am looking for a solution to this injustice.

One thing I learned while making it. Since the AI doesn't create a religion with GDR, I guess I'll have to craft this as a separate Great Person mod for endgame.

in other words. As a result, the mod will be removed except for GDR's 'Religious Resurrection Rock Band'.

This is such a juicy idea. I really hope you'll be able to overcome the AI problem. Good luck!

Is it possible to make a tweak to one of the later era tech or civic, so when you research it, it's unlocking a another religion slot? Like if I play on Huge map with 12 players, than there will be 7 religion slots, but when a player / AI researches this new technology, the religion count will go up to 8 slots. (Thank you very much for the mod anyway :D)

Do you know what could be better? by destroying the other party's religion With a certain probability, GDR can be upgraded regardless of technological development. :D
Don't be afraid of Machine God Who your spokesperson.

[Update Notes]
now GDR can 'propagate' religion.
Have a 'Rock Concert' on your opponent's Holy Site District.
(Systematically, It just like a rock band with a Religious Rock promotion.)

Problems found during testing: AI players never use GDR to create religions. They seem to be hard-coded so that only the Great Prophet can create a religion.

To solve this problem... may need to allow the Great Prophet to appear in a future age.

Fair point!

@ThinkingNut
Consider the ability to use GDR to 'inquisition' or remove religion. :D
Maybe this is possible.

Otherwise, it would be a pity to be able to enjoy this content exclusively on advanced starts.

I like the concept of this. Would it be possible to further incentivise founding a religion this late in the game though? If I started a game from the Ancient Era and assuming there are at least 2 religious civs in a game, by the time GDR arrive their religion would be hard to dislodge, especially if my civ was not built for faith generation up till now. Maybe massive bonuses to faith generation, religion spread, or the ability to have multiple follower beliefs?
