Origins Civics

"From the depths of the Pacific to the edge of the galaxy"

This mod explores the concept of origin civics: permanent civics that alter the game start and/or introduce a new way to play the game. These civics add new elements such as non-ideal starts, quest chains, and/or mid-game bonuses to enhance your style of play as your build an empire amongst the stars. Mid-game bonuses appear about 100 years into the game and add additional modifiers to the permanent civic you've chosen.

Hi All and thanks for checking out Origins Civics! I've updated the mod to the Planet & Pops update for 2.2. I look forward to your feedback and hope to bring the rest of the mod to you soon!

Check out the in-game mod trailer on YouTube for some ideas for how this mod plays.
